Stronghold Table
Within the Stronghold Unit, the Stronghold Table, a 3-mile-long plateau, is a historic site, sacred to the Lakota and inaccessible. It was here, just before the Massacre at Wounded Knee in 1890, that some 600 Sioux gathered to perform one of the last known Ghost Dances, a ritual in which the Sioux wore white shirts that they believed would protect them from bullets.
