I thought of a calumet before, but one of the answers did not fit

BINGO! Sitting Bull The great medicine man and spiritualist who perforemed the brutal Sun Dance by which he envisioned Soldiers falling into camp headfirst ie: dead. The site of which was encountered by Custers troops enroute to LBH. When he toured with Buffalo Bill's Wild West show He was completely taken with the uncanny accuracy of "little sure shot" who surely was blessed by the Great Spirit to shoot like she did.

The sale’s top lots are expected to include a Sioux twisted pipe stem with catlinite bowl once owned by Sitting Bull, estimated at $60,000 to $80,000,
<Sitting Bull seen with 'calumet' tucked in belt ie 'wearing it' tends to give the artifact serious provinance imho. Too old by 1876, Sitting Bull did not fight at LBH but assisted in helping the women and children escape the Greasy Grass battle field. https://news.artnet.com/market/the-e...uction-2119769 OVER to JEFF! http://dyingwords.net/sun-dance-why-...ittle-bighorn/
Quote:
The core reason—the root cause—of why Custer really lost the Battle of the Little Bighorn hasn’t been identified by historians. They’ve overlooked the Sun Dance effect—the psychological and spiritual impact of the warriors’ cultural unity led by Lakota Chief Sitting Bull. This book outlines why the Lakota Sioux Sun Dance had such a powerful effect on the warriors’ will to win and why this sacred ceremony was the root cause of Custer’s demise.

Prior to the mention of a white girl adoption I thought Sitting Bull was too obvious an answer

This was tough but nice

Still i have no idea what this answer meant
Me:
"An indian (north-american) shaman or priest wearing this at the battle of the Little Big Horn?"
Aktungbby:
"not sure, June 25, 1876 was, by all accounts hot and windless so I'd assume it was tucked in a parfleche hanging from a lodge pole..."

Was properly diverted from a medicine man by this

Well I know how to divert an old Shatterhand/Winnetou fanatic several of Custer's survivors mentioned the Sundance location in memoirs. Just the travois and pony tracks indicated a huge number of native Americans on the move toward the Greasy Grass... aprox 7000-10,000 were seen departing from Reno Hill...on June 27th...by all accounts a major exodus of a massive encampment and matching pony herd. I'll PM Jeff to get a new puzzle.
