crazy horse misha: i have a question, sir. this may seem strange, but i'm sure i saw another person in another mountain not far from here. guide: good question. i'm sure you mean another remarkable monument, crazy horse monument. mark: that is crazy horse? manual: not what, but who. crazy horse is the name of the great indian chief. this is a very sad story, but what must be said. long ago, when european settlers had not yet arrived, the area was inhabited by indians from sioux tribe. they were simple, peaceful life and hunted buffalo for food. sioux believed in the power of nature and worshipped their gods, as their parents and grandparents, what he has done for thousands of years. for them, the black hills were very sacred place. when the europeans came, the situation began to change. they killed more than buffalo sioux ever did and soon the indians do not have enough to eat. throughout the country europeans took all the good earth and moved the indian tribes in "reservations". these areas were dry land, that the europeans do not want to. the booking indians had to abandon their wandering way of life. at first the sioux, it seemed, was more fortunate than the other tribes: the area of the black hills was not very attractive for europeans, therefore, in the treaty of 1868, the u.s. government promised that the territory of the sioux forever. however, the promise was not long, very soon, gold was found in the black hills, and thousands of miners poured into the region. the us government forced the sioux to leave their land. this left the indians without a choice: they started a war against the occupiers. crazy horse was sioux chief who led his tribe to the war. for his people, he was a real hero: a bold, beautiful and fair. he had earned them respect not only his skills in combat, but his desire to preserve their traditional way of life and culture. but the sioux were defeated in the war. in fact, their defeat at the battle of wounded knee in 1890 was the last major defeat native american white people on this continent. it was more than the mass murder of the battle. hundreds of unarmed sioux women, children and men were shot dead by us troops. so you all can imagine that, when white men came in the black hills in 1927 and blew up behalf of four presidents in the sacred black hills, this was a profound insult to the sioux, who still lived in the area. in 1939, su-chief standing bear decided to create indian memorial in the black hills. he asked the sculptor korczak tsiolkovsky to carve the great statue of the crazy horse another mountain in the black hills. there was no state financing for the project, so that the artist used his own money to buy a large piece of the mountains. when the sculptor died, his family continued with the project. while only person crazy horse is ready, but when all the statue is completed, it will be much bigger than any of mount rushmore person. on top of the mountain is a huge figure in american indian rider on a white horse, that even after his death protects the sacred hills in south dakota, a region that still believe sioux yourself. rob: i'm sorry, sir. only one little question. is there a cave under the crazy horse monument? guide: i'm not sure, but possible. there are many caves in the mountains. gold miners stopped dig there after it became harder to find gold in the caves
