SittingBull led thousands of warriors from different tribes to a resounding victory over Custer, and the battle was dubbed "Custer's Last Stand" (the only survivor on the U.S. side was a horse, Comanche).
SittingBull was not a war leader in that fight, but he had predicted that many soldiers would fall, and his followers believed that his magical powers had brought the victory.
SittingBull's body was taken by the Indian police to Fort Yates (North Dakota) and buried in the military cemetery.
