EDITORS COMMENTS
This haunting image captures the remnants of a fierce battle that unfolded on the vast plains of Montana in 1876. The photograph, taken by Stanley Morrow shortly after the Battle of Little Bighorn, reveals a chilling sight - a pile of bones scattered across the battlefield. Known as Custer's Last Fight, this historic event was a significant clash between Native American tribes and General George Armstrong Custer's Seventh Cavalry. As we gaze at this sepia-toned stereograph, we are transported back to that fateful day when bravery clashed with desperation. The skeletal remains serve as silent witnesses to the violence and sacrifice that took place here. They tell stories of warriors fighting for their land and way of life against encroaching settlers. Each bone represents an individual who fought valiantly or tragically fell during those intense moments. Beyond its historical significance, this photograph also offers insights into zoology and anthropology. It showcases not only human bones but also animal remains strewn amidst them – evidence of horses caught up in the chaos alongside their riders. As we contemplate this powerful image, let us remember those who lost their lives on these hallowed grounds. May it serve as a reminder to honor their memory and strive for understanding among all cultures involved in shaping America's complex history.
