Great Sioux War (1876) one of the
Plains Indians Wars between the United States and the
Sioux. It grew out of a dispute about rights to gold in the Black Hills of South Dakota; the gold was on Sioux reservation land and the United States wished to buy it back, but native leaders who were not party to the treaty establishing the reservation refused to negotiate. The first incident in the war was
Custer's Last Stand, which galvanized opinion against the indigenous population.
