Who is this Lakota?

[gregor]

Hi everybody,
just came across this post

www.american-tribes.com/Articles/ART/UnidentifiedPhoto.htm

and remembered that I have another picture of the kneeling man on the right side. Here it is:



I'm quite sure it is not Gassy. But who is he? Brulé or Oglala?
Any suggestions?

Good question Gregor, I´ve been wondering about him for a long time...
All I know is he´s from the 1872 delegation...

Hi,
for a long time I've / we've been wondering who was the above member of the 1872 Lakota delegation.
Now I came across this picture in my archive (don't ask me where I found it / it is not my caption ):



Could this really be High Bear? A High Bear accompanied Red Cloud in 1872 to Washington. The delegation member High Bear is one of the few (3 or 4 persons) who couldn't be identified on a Gardner photograph so far. The more I look at the pix I think it is a possibility (look at the nose..). Of course it is difficult to say because of the different angles of the faces.
What do you think?

Hallo Gregor,

frankly... I would vote for no.

But I haven´t got a clue who he is.
