As a Dog Soldier or "Hotametananeo" (Means DogMan) the first story is wrong about our name and weapon, the Crooked Lance Warriors are the warriors from our Elk Horn Scraper society, the Crooked Lance is their weapon. Each society had a different weapon, us DogSoldiers use long 6-7 foot long straight lances.

Oh man, I’m so happy I found this channel. I absolutely love this stuff and it’s so hard to find the history

Thousands of years of brutal, hardcore battle and for so much of it went on obliviously to the rest of the world. Good stuff, my man.

True history of the old west and how the indigenous tribes treated each other is hard to find. Thank you.

Best history channel on KZfaq! Hands down!

Ok. I love these videos. I had no interest in this era of history until the algorithm blessed me with this channel. Subbed and loved.

Love your pictures of the past and the narrative is very informative 👍 👌

Nice morning coffee video for this Saturday morning

Excellent as always! Thanks for all your hard work!!!

Sitting here in NE Oklahoma, enjoying this amazing history lesson. Huge fan!! 🙏🏿🇺🇸

Probably the best podcast channel, also when it comes to native history.

All of these battles, but one thing is for sure, if it wasn’t for the Indian scouts none of these battles would have ever happened. AMAZING STORIES keep up the GREAT work 🤘

Thank you for being true to the person of Kit Carson. I am an amateur historian of carson, and believe that he is unfairly portrayed as an Indian killer with no remorse in today's revisionist history.

I simply love these stories. So real. So mellow with the music in the background. Thank you for enlightening me with such rich history!

I LOVE this channel too! If we humans are ever going to have lasting peace and justice, we need to educate ourselves on the varied cultures of the human race. Please keep up the great work! Thanks again, Adele Crowder

Thank you for this channel! These are the best and the music is perfect!

Well done, well researched. Look forward to many more SOATOKC

Very thorough and thoughtful work - massive thanks

Only 3 hours and 40 minutes?! That’s hardly long enough to cover one bathroom break.

Great 197 cups of coffee video for this Thursdsy at 3 am

Really well narrated, with interesting visuals. Love the homespun storytelling style with crackling vocabulary demonstrating intelligence and passion for the subject.

As a full blooded Flat Rock Indian, let me thank you for your work and ask you to stop calling my people "indigenous," or whatever term the liberal Whites have come up with most recently. We are proud to be Indians, and refer to ourselves as such. We also know better than to claim to be the original people of this country, as we know that if you go back in history far enough, you will find many others of other races that came before us and built civilizations that rose and fell, as all things do.

Love the background music! Also love the American history stories!!!

Ok, it's sunday morning. I did wake n bake. @ 32:34 second guy from the right... tell me he is not wairing a pair of "Nike" hightops.

I love this storys i tough i knew a lot of the western but only heard of a few of you storys thanks for great upload s and storys for taught

The fact that I just discovered this channel yesterday is a real indictment of the KZfaq algorithm. Fantastic stuff.

Excellent as always 👏👏👏

Lived here my whole life near the Hundred-in-the Hand fight and NEVER heard the story of One Eyed Antelope! I would love to visit this site and offer my respects and will through further research if possible. Thank You for all your hard work on these fascinating documentaries!

Dang, i wasnt expecting over 3 hours! Thats awesome 👌

Great content my good man, the Old West was the best era in time.

Very well narrated and done history video. I like history video's and will subscribe. Thanks, John.

Ty for your service

Great background soundtrack in addition to fascinating story telling

Finley someone talking about INDIAN HISTORY. All you ever hear about is black history, Chinese history, Spanish history, Mexican history, And maybe if you get lucky enough you can find 10 minutes of Indian history before it goes back to some Foreigner's history. To find hours and hours of indian history is shocking to find THIS CHANNEL IS TRULY AMAZING AND WONDERFUL AND TRULY SO GREATLY APPRECIATED. Im ¾ Cherokee and as we know most oh my family history SLOTTERED for are lands to be taken so to actually be able to have a channel talking about any kind of indian tribes history is wonderful and im sure im not the only one who GREATLY APPRECIATES IT. YOU'RE CHANNEL IS TRULY AWESOME AND THANK YOU ALL VERY MUCH FOR ALL YOUR TIME AND HARD WORK YOU PUT INTO MAKING THESE AMAZING VIDEOS, YOU'RE EFFORT IS TRULY APPRECIATED !!! 💐💐💐💐💐💐💐 🦋 👣🐾 Shakonohey

wow, this is so interesting. thank you for your hard work with such attention to detail.

Man never ceases to amaze how brutal these days were you'll never catch me saying the indians were a peaceful people again 😳

Greetings from Apacheria in the Arizona Territories Ahe'hye'e

Thank you for the honest and historic telling of the past 😎

Can't get enough of this ❤

Fremont bought Alcatraz Island for $300 from a Mexican goat herder. Kit Carson was also married to two different Native American women. Fremont could also be remembered as first to free the slaves in Missouri in 1861, but they where only free for a few weeks because Lincoln rescinded that by executive order.

People are People. I like that.

What a great storyteller

Donner lake is a great place to go during the summer, fishing and camping… just bring enough food.😂

Thank you ! This reminds me a great deal about the Musket Wars here in New Zealand between the different Iwi (tribes) from the 1800 to 1842. It wasn't like the USA and Canada, here in New Zealand the victor normally ate their victims, some were lucky or unlucky to be slaves! Maori killed each other to such an extent that the number killed in these tribal wars was the same as what New Zealand lost in WW1 and WW2 combined! This why the Treaty of Waitangi saved Māori from exterminating each other by all the Tribes giving Sovereignty to the Crown.

Indeed a nice relaxing Sat. morning & afternoon. Enjoy

Hope you got ad revenue cuz I'ma watch every MINUTE OF YOUR CHANNEL

Happy I found this my type of stories good stuff

Old Wesr history is the best.

I'm home sick from work. For the life of me I can't figure out why, after three hours, the looping sound track hasn't even gotten old yet. That was a really good pick bro. Great content too tho, that's the real reason I'm commenting. How fascinating! Crazy how Mr. Smith, at a ripe old age of 32, was one of only two fatalities on a supposedly safe trip. Seems to me the poor guy was just trying to wrap up the final item on his bucket list before kicking back for a nice retirement during which he could enjoy the fruits of all his hard work. Fascinating.

Man I loved this🎉

Love that early picture of San Francisco bay also great video Thanks 👍

There were some great warriors RIP

Entire video gave me goosebumps

Cool stories, bro.

24:49 That spot of land is soaked in blood, three battles where faught in that small area. The battle in this video, the second being an engagement between hostiles and expiditionary force drawn up from Sheridan's Department of Missouri in the winter of 1868 along the banks of Beaver River and the third being the Battle of Camp Supply in June 11, 1870 at the fortified supply camp the army built at the convergence of Beaver River and Wolf Creek, along with counless skirmishes and murders between 1868 and 1890 in and around that area.

I find it odd that there was a guy going back and forth across donner pass on skis to deliver mail and such back and forth to Sacramento and Reno in the heart of winter, yet there was a group of people stranded and couldn't even move. How strange is that?

Amazing content ❤️

Keep it going!!

Love this for falling asleep. Some weird dreams though😂

Oh I love how you all tell a story! Albeit, a sad one....😢

No wonder there is so many hauntings in the south west. So much vengeance sowed and blood spilt.

3:17..."The Dog Soldiers quickly retreated to the top of the nearest hill.." -What happened to dog soldiers never retreating regardless of how tactically inane that philosophy/oath was?

Interesting/informative/entertaining. Excellent drawings/Black & White pictures.Reenactments. Enabling viewers to better understand what the orator was describing. Had enemy tribal warriors not assisted the U.S. Calvary in seeking out the remaining tribes. They would have been afforded a better opportunity to negotiate. Agreements that would have better benefited their best interests.

This is amazing & a shame not taught In depth in schools.

Blood meridian dlc is much appreciated

Best channel!

Southwest Oregon enjoying. 😊

Legend of the one eyed snake 🐍

Enjoying from Rose Barracks

My older brother was raised by our dad. I was raised by our mom. Back in 1990, my brother told me we're Scottish and Blackfoot on my dad's side. I didn't really believe either because my mom is Norwegian and German. I've had my DNA tested and done tons of research. I did have countless ancestors within the last 50 to 200 years who lived in (modern day) Montana, Dakotas, Washington, Oregon, and British Columbia. My DNA is Scottish 20%, Norwegian 16%, German 15%, Irish 15%, English 12%, Sweedish/Danish 12%, Welsh 5%, French 3%, Native American 2%, Finnish ~>1% It's not impossible for me to have a recent Blackfoot ancestor. 1:13:45 This story hit a bit too close to home for me. Within the last 2-4 generations, I have 2 lines of ancestors with the surname Williams, one with the mane Young, one Maxwell, the latter being my mom's grandma's maiden name.

Good video

Very interesting and historic events thanks for posting these However ,In your story "The Battle of Belly River .you say Saskatchewan ,Alberta .Both Saskatchewan and Alberta are provinces has to be one or the other can't be both .Its like saying Montana .North Dakota .

I just don't understand how no gunshots were heard when smith was shot.

Thank you

So whats the difference between comanchero warning J.Smith about the Comanche? They arent the same? Sorry,im a greenhorn but I absolutely love this channel! Awesome sauce!!

Something tells me they weren't much of swimmers

Love rhe music...really hard to get right in this formst , too

I wish we all just got along and their was no fighting eachother, maybe we would all still be following our traditional ways and their would be no drugs in our reserves and the world would definitely be a better place.

To quote the late, great Rodney King, "Can't we all just get along?"

Crow, black wign

Savage part was right

All your videos are “auditory movies” to me, but I think this might be your magnum opus.

Goodnight my internet friends!!!

I'm not buying that the Apache worked with the Commanche. They were mortal enemies who would never collaborate.

What are some tips for getting the lighting right as shown in this video?

My great great grandfather charles lewis vonberg .. knew curley.. He was known as Eagle tail... There is a book about my grandfather. INDIAN SCOUT WESTREN PAINTER Captin Charles L. von Berg..

Ownership by conquest.

The contraries were people who were contrary to everything that means that they were backwards they walked backwards they bathe in the dirt ain't got dirty by the water. Everything they did they did backwards

Been a dog soldier not always to that... white boy scout...

Are there references for these stories?

While important to recognize and understand the horrors committed by the Europeans and Americans to the natives it also very important to understand that it went both ways and I was not that Europeans were barbaric or the Americans were barbaric or that the natives of the many tribe were barbaric. They were all people and they were all barbaric and they all did horrible things to each other but they also did great things to each other while some may be small in comparison they still happened. What is best to do is learn from the history going forward learn the of men who fought and died whether for right or wrong cause. We should leave the past where it is but not leave it behind because all the men, women, and children involved in the conflicts and wars whether within native on native wars or native on European they are all dead and there is nothing you can do in todays world that will fix what has happened because it has already happened.

According to the Indians, Custer was one of the first to die

Isn’t it the difficulty on Fremont Street?

The Donnor party was not to be blamed completely. Because of a malfunction of a U.S. military satellite, their GPS had taken them miles off course. This, combined with the fact that a 7-Eleven had been closed down due to high crime, led to the horrible outcome of this group.

YES❤🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉

so sad the time is gone

I was born less than 20 miles from Bainbridge, NY

Buffalo bill

So did Metzger die ?

i love how the painfully endless stream of pathetic modern man ads contrast the seriousness of life in uncharted wild lands.
