Red Horse (Tasunka Luta) was a sub-chief of the Miniconjou Sioux (Lakota). (1822-1907)
He fought in the 1876 Battle of the Little Bighorn, and in 1881 he gave one of the few detailed accountings of the event.
He also drew pictographs of the Little Bighorn Battle.
Red Horse drew 42 ledger book drawings illustrating the Battle of Little Big Horn.
The drawings were commissioned by Charles E. McChesney, an Army doctor. The drawings were made in 1881.
They were drawn with colored pencil on the manilla paper.
The drawings show hand-to-hand warfare in a brutally honest manner, and have been described as "the most trustworthy sort of visual depiction we have of the battle" that does not centralize General George Custer's role in the fighting.
Red Horse married twice and had three children.
