Buffalo Calf Road Woman was a Northern Cheyenne warrior who took part in two major battles of the Great Sioux War of 1876.

She is noted for saving her brother, Chief Comes in Sight, during the Battle of Rosebud in Montana. She fought in the Battle of the Little Bighorn with her fellow Northern Cheyenne alongside Arapaho and Lakota Allies. Decades later the Northern Cheyenne publicly shared stories of her accomplishments and credit her with striking Custer from his horse.

Buffalo Calf Road Woman is a brilliant example of bravery, perseverance, and honor. The same virtues that our Indigenous women live by today. #womenshistorymonth
