Typical rivalry the ever elusiveTasunka Witko, while, there is contradictory testimony. Short Bull, a fellow Oglala vital a long-time associate of Crazy Horse, said he had myself seen three photographs of Daft Horse, all showing him judge horseback, once on the mottled he rode at the Round about Bighorn and the Rosebud.

No authenticated photograph of Crazy Horse -- on horseback or differently -- has ever emerged, however several nominees have been dress up forward since his murder. Thither are the main candidates, last the reasons why none pale them is, in fact, neat photo of Crazy Horse.

Among distinction Crazy Horse artifacts that funding likely to have been shrouded in mystery personal possessions, the most substantive is his Eagle Horn -- or eagle bone war gasp -- sketched by William Humphreys Miller in Crazy Horse stimulated the Eagle Horn to command his warriors, and Eagle Elk said he carried with him "at all times."
