Brulé

The Brulé are one of the seven branches or "sub-tribes" of the Lakota Sioux Native American nation. They are known as Sicangu Oyate, or "Burnt Thighs", and so, called Brulé (lit. "burnt") by the French. Many Sicangu people live on the Rosebud Indian Reservation in South Dakota. Short Bull was a well-known Sicangu holy man, who brought the Ghost Dance to the Lakota in South Dakota in 1890.
