Eagle Child - Atsina. Photographer: Curtis, Edward Sheriff
- Scope & Content:
-
Half-length full-face portrait of Eagle Child, an Atsina. His biography is given in volume 5 of The North American Indian, p.181. 'Born in 1862 east of the Little Rockies. He first followed the war-path when twenty years of age, but gained no honors on this occasion. His next experience was in an expedition against the Piegan. Three of the enemy charged a small party of the Atsina, and one, singling him out, came so close that when the Piegan shot, the powder burned Eagle Child. Another Atsina shot the Piegan, and Eagle Child counted second coup and took the scalp.'
