Tamaha (Dakota scout)

http://dbpedia.org/resource/Tamaha_(Dakota_scout)

Tamaha (c. 1776–1864), also known as Standing Moose or "L'Orignal Levé," was one of two Mdewakanton Dakota scouts for the United States in the War of 1812, when most Sioux sided with the British. He was a member of Chief Red Wing's band and was presented with a medal and certificate by Governor William Clark of Missouri Territory for his loyalty to the U.S. The certificate was treasured by Tamaha, who called himself "the 'only' American Sioux," and can now be seen at the Minnesota History Center. rdf:langString

In 1805, 26-year-old explorer Zebulon Pike referred to Tamaha in his journal as "my friend" — a reference that has cemented Tamaha's legendary status and resulted in Tahama Spring in Colorado Springs being named after him.
