Wild Horse, 1880
The man that can be seen in the photo was known by the name, Wild Horse. He was a Dakota native and this picture of him was originally taken in the middle 1880. It was shared that the value that Dakota natives treasure the most, up until today, is their relationship with one another. It is an obligation in their tribe to be a great and kind relative. Well, that is such an adorable and sweet gesture that the Dakota natives have started a very long time ago.
