Satanta

Satanta (c. 1830) was a chief of the Kiowa, one of the Native American tribes that resided in the Confederate States of America after it won the War of Secession. In the days before the Second Mexican War, United States Colonel George Custer pursued Satanta and a band of followers when they crossed into Kansas. Custer was prepared to lead his troops into Indian Territory to capture or kill Satanta, but was thwarted by the arrival of C.S. cavalry.
