Who was the leader of an army detachment wiped out by the Lakota Sioux in Wyoming?

On December 21, 1866, William J. Fetterman and his troop of 80 men pursued a small band of Sioux into an ambush. Fetterman ignored orders not to venture beyond Lodge Trail Ridge, out of sight and support distance from Wyoming's Fort Phil Kearney.

Who was the religious leader and chief who led the Lakota Sioux in their defeat of lieutenant colonel George Custer and his troops at the battle of the little bighorn?

The last great Lakota religious leader (Wičháša Wakȟáŋ or Medicine Man) was Black Elk, who died in August, 1950. Several others have been religious figures for the Lakota since then, but Black Elk was the last traditional keeper of the old Lakota rites. He was very passionate about keeping "the hoop" of the Lakota unbroken, so he relayed his life story to John G. Neihardt in the book "Black Elk Speaks," and detailed the intricacies of the Lakota religion to Joseph Epes Brown in the book "The Sacred Pipe."
