"Archaeologists and Native American tribes are protesting language in a Senate bill that would approve a controversial land exchange between the federal government and a copper mining company—a swap that may put Native American archaeological sites at risk. The bill is needed to fund the U.S. military and is considered likely to pass the Senate as early as today. The company Resolution Copper Mining hopes to exploit rich copper deposits beneath 980 hectares of Arizona’s Tonto National Forest. The land, however, also contains important archaeological sites and places sacred to local Native American tribes, especially the Apache. “This is the best set of Apache archaeological sites ever documented, period, full stop,” says John Welch, a former historic preservation officer for the White Mountain Apache Tribe and a professor at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, Canada".

Hi Kingsley,
I am aware of the link and I have tried to access the site from different angles to no avail. I've sent them an e-mail on the issue and I will report back later when I have some updates.

Jasper, the caption beneath the picture I posted is from the book: Geronimo's Story of his Life. They are not my words and Lawton was a captain, not a general. The less said about Miles, the better. His words are bad medicine. His actions, despicable.

No Neck is also mentioned as the actual person on the highly controversial picture of Chief Crazy Horse. Some say it is Chief No Neck who surrendered with Crazy Horse in 1877.

For those who haven't read 'Geronimo's Story of his Life' you can read the book in its entirety online: www.gutenberg.org/files/31318/31318-h/31318-h.htm From the author's introductory: "On page ninety-seven of the manuscript Geronimo accuses General Miles of bad faith. Of course, General Miles made the treaty with the Apaches, but we know very well that he is not responsible for the way the Government subsequently treated the prisoners of war. However, Geronimo cannot understand this and fixes upon General Miles the blame for what he calls unjust treatment. One could not expect the Department of War to approve adverse criticisms of its own acts, but it is especially gratifying that such a liberal view has been taken of these criticisms, and also that such a frank statement of the merits of the Autobiography is submitted in the memorandum. Of course neither the President nor the War Department is in any way responsible for what Geronimo says; he has simply been granted the opportunity to state his own case as he sees it". I leave the commenting to you...
