Black Kettle was a prominent leader of the Southern Cheyenne during the American Indian Wars.
Born to the Northern Só’taeo’o / So’taetaneo’o band of the Northern Cheyenne in the Black Hills of present-day South Dakota, he later married into the Wotapio / Wutapai band (one mixed Cheyenne-Kiowa band with Lakota Sioux origin) of the Southern Cheyenne.
