'The Deadwood Coach' - formally dressed men sitting in and on top of coach; 1889. VARIOUS, UNITED STATES: COLOURISED images show how the western settlement in America resulted in the upheaval for hundreds of indigenous tribes. In one image, three indigenous men - otherwise known as Cheyenne men - wore ceremonial clothing and each held a rifle as they greeted a Euro-American man of western civilization who wore a suit and was accompanied by his interpreter. Another image showed a group of Euro-American men and Lakota men, who belonged to either the Brule, Miniconjou or Oglala subtribes, posing in front of a tipi. This photo captured the moment U.S officials and Native American chiefs came together for a moment of peace. Others showed three teenage boys sat in western clothing who were known as ?Uncle Sam?s Pets? and only got fed rations every 29 days, and a man from the Oglala subtribe as he stood with two U.S soldiers whilst cradling a cannon located in a military camp. These spectacular photographs date between 1887 and 1892, thus giving us an insight into the forces of western settlement in South Dakota and Wyoming and its impact on the area?s indigenous communities. John C.H. Grabill?s collection is thought to be the largest surviving collection of this settlement, which documents railroad development, milling and mining. The Lakota Sioux community are portrayed living near or on the Cheyenne River, where they came into contact with the U.S military. Some of the photographs featured are thought to only be taken just days after the Wounded Knee massacre in 1890, which was one of the final chapters in America?s long war with Native Americans and resulted in the death of 146 Sioux members. mediadrumworld.com
