Why did the Battle of the Little Bighorn occur?
so anyways the battle just started like u no.....any battle starts. they pushed the feather head people into reservations and like u no, wer like using their land, like then umm......oh yea. the feather heads got mad over some proclamation, cause they didnt no bout it and then..................they went and fought by the little bighorn river, so they call it battle of bighorn. it was the Sioux against the 7th clavary that were made up of the civil war veterans, and they were totally outnumbered bu the feather heads so the feather heads won, and it was a impact on civil rights because.... the natives won and it showed that they wanted rights and etc.DUH
What did the Indians call general Custer?
Each tribe had its own name for Custer. The Crows called him Ihkaléaxdaakua, Child of the Morning Star. This was a great honour, since Morning Star was a powerful supernatural being in Crow religion.The Cheyenne called him Heova'ehe, Yellow Hair; the Lakota called him Pehin hanska, Long Hair.Before the Little Bighorn battle, Custer's hair had been cut quite short.
What did the Indians call the valley of the little bighorn?
Your question supposes that all the natives of the area used the same place names, which is incorrect.The Little Bighorn valley is entirely within the territory of the Crow tribe and they have many specific names for different places in the Little Bighorn Valley. For example Alaxkúpitche (Good River Bend), Ashkúalalitche (Good Middle Camp), Bilippítshuhke (Wide Ash Trees), Alachúa (Where It Is Narrow), Amníashipite (Black Cliff), Bilixawuá (Rumbling Water). The river itself is Iisaxpúatahcheeaashe Aliakáate (Small Bighorn Sheep River).The Crows use the term Bikkaatashé (Greasy Grass) for an area between Lodge Grass and Rotten Grass Creek, Montana. This is named because of the nutritious grass found along the banks of this creek. It appears that the Sioux and Cheyenne give the name "Greasy Grass" to the Little Bighorn River area, although the true origin of this name is unknown.

What US general died during the Battle of Little Bighorn?
No general died at Little Bighorn, Custer had been a temporary ("brevet") brigadier general during the civil war, but had been reverted to his previous rank of captain in the 5th Cavalry as soon as the war was over.In 1866 he was promoted to Leiutenant-Colonel in charge of the newly-formed 7th Cavalry and that was the rank he held at his death in 1876.Many people continued to call him "general" as a mark of respect (or pandering to his immense self-glorification and ego). He was definitely not a general, however.
