SITTING BULL
Tatanka-Iyotanka 1831-1890
Photography by David F. Barry 1885
coated card bookmark 150 x 50 mm
produced by Indigena Fine Art Publishers, Ltd. in 2001
Famed warrior, medicine man and military leader of the
Hunkpapa Indians, under whom the Lakota tribes united
in their struggle for survival on the northern plains. His
courage was legendary, he remained defiant against
American military power and contemptuous of American
promises to the end. He was killed resisting arrest on the
Standing Rock Reservation in 1890.
"What treaty have the Sioux made with the white man that
we have broken? Not one. What treaty have the white man
ever made with us that they have kept? Not one. When I
was a boy the Sioux owned the world; the sun rose and
set on their land; they sent ten thousand men to battle.
Where are the warriors today? Who slew them? Where
are our lands? Who owns them? ....What law have I broken?
Is it wrong for me to love my own? Is it wicked for me be-
cause my skin is red? Because I am a Sioux; because I was
born where my father lived; because I would die for my peo-
ple and my country?"
Sitting Bull

Patagonia-To The End Of The World
Patagonia is the southernmost portion of South America. Mostly located in Argentina and partly in Chile, it comprises the Andes mountains to the west and south, and plateaux and low plains to the east. The name Patagonia comes from the word patagon used by Magellan to describe the native people who his expedition thought to be giants. It is now believed the Patagons were actually Tehuelches and Aonikenk with an average height of 1.80 m compared to the 1.55 average for Spaniards of the time.
To the east of the Andes, it lies south of the Neuquén River and Colorado rivers, and, to the west of the Andes, south of (39°S), excluding the Chiloé Archipelago. East of the Andes the Argentine portion of Patagonia includes the provinces of Neuquén, Río Negro, Chubut, Santa Cruz, and Tierra del Fuego, as well as the southern tips of the provinces of Buenos Aires, Mendoza and La Pampa. The Chilean portion embraces the southern part of the region of Los Lagos, and the regions of Aysen and Magallanes. It excludes those portions of Antarctica claimed by both countries.
