On the heels of a Paris auction house withdrawing from sale an Acoma Pueblo shield, a Dallas-based house is set to auction off more than 100 items from Pine Ridge and Rosebud reservations, including three cavalry guns used in the Wounded Knee Massacre and two pipes. Heritage Auctions plans to open its Legends of the West auction on June 11. The lot contains more than 400 items, including everything from letters and photographs to weapons, beadwork and even a scalp lock. Starting bids range from copy, for a wig used in an old Wild West show, to copy2,500 for an autograph book containing signatures from both James Butler Hickok (“Wild Bill”) and William F. Cody (“Buffalo Bill”). |

Those items should be given back to the tribes they were taken from.
The Sand Creek and Wounded Knee massacres, the mass execution of the 38+2 and the attempts to erase Native Culture are absolute shameful stains on American history. |

TO REMEMBER |
| ...If a man lies under oath or procures the lie of another under oath, if he perjures himself or suborns perjury, he is guilty under the statute law. Under the higher law, under the great law of morality and righteousness, he is precisely as guilty if, instead of lying in a court, he lies in a newspaper or on the stump; and in all probability, the evil effects of his conduct are infinitely more widespread and more pernicious. — Teddy Roosevelt - May 12, 1900 |
