Chief Charlie Little Coyote

Chief Charlie Little Coyote, a full-blood Cheyenne Native American, was a longtime resident of Medicine Lodge and a big supporter of the Peace Treaty Pageant. He was the great-great grandson of Black Kettle, the Cheyenne chief that signed the Treaty of Medicine Lodge in 1867. He passed away Feb. 9, 2012, at the age of 85. We are fortunate to have some of his things, including a “Chief Drum” his sons painted for him and the outfit he would wear for the Peace Treaty observance.
