Grattan massacre
The Grattan massacre occurred in what is today Nebraska, USA on August 17, 1854 near Fort Laramie, in which a number of US soldiers were killed by Brule Sioux. This then lead to the Battle of Bluewater Creek (also known as the Battle of Ash Hollow) on September 3, 1855, in which US soldiers killed a number of Brule Sioux near Ash Hollow on Bluewater Creek. It was an early event in the plains Indian wars and was significant as Crazy Horse was present as a young child and deeply influenced by the events.
