“The Sacred Black Hills” (“Ȟe Sápa”.. or, “Paha Sápa”) are a small and isolated mountain range rising from the Great Plains, in western South Dakota and extending into Wyoming, United States. Black Elk Peak (formerly known as: Harney Peak), which rises to 7,244 feet (2,208 m), is the range's highest summit. The Black Hills encompass the Black Hills National Forest. The hills were so-called, because, of their dark appearance from a distance, as they were covered in trees.
Indigenous Americans have a long history in the Black Hills. After conquering the Cheyenne, in 1776, the Lakota People took the territory of the Black Hills, which became central to their culture. In 1868, the U.S. government signed the “Fort Laramie Treaty”, establishing the Great Sioux Reservation, west of the Missouri River and exempting the Black Hills ”from all white settlement, forever”. However, when settlers discovered gold there, in 1874, as a result of George Armstrong Custer’s “Black Hills Expedition”,
miners swept into the area, in a gold rush. The US government took the Black Hills and in 1889, “reassigned” the Lakota People, against their wishes, to five smaller reservations in western South Dakota, selling off 9 million acres of their former land.
