Two Leggings - Apsaroke. Photographer: Curtis, Edward Sheriff
- Scope & Content:
-
Half-length full-face portrait of Two-Leggings, an Apsaroke warrior. His biography is given in volume 4 of The North American Indian, p.207. 'Born about 1848. River Crow; Not Mixed clan; Lumpwood organization. Having no great medicine derived from his own vision, he was adopted into the Tobacco order by Bull Goes Hunting, who gave him his medicine of a fossil, or a stone, roughly shaped like a horse facing both ways. Two Leggings thus became a war-leader. In pursuing some Piegan who had killed a woman in the Apsaroke camp opposite Fort C. F. Smith on the Bighorn, he counted dakshe and captured a gun by the same act - a high honor. Led two parties against the Hunkpapa Sioux, each time taking scalps. Captured fifty horses from the Yanktonai at Fort Peck, and with Deaf Bull led a party that brought back eighty horses from the Teton Sioux.'
