crazy perverse

Crazy Bear (1785–1856) was a chief of the Assiniboine tribes of the northern plains. Their territory included Montana, North Dakota, Alberta and Saskatchewan. He is known as a skilled negotiator with the American Fur Company at Fort Union, North Dakota, and remembered for his participation and representation at the Fort Laramie Treaty Council of 1851—where he was a signatory of the treaty. He earned the name Mah-To-Wit-Ko (meaning "Crazy Bear") because he fought like a crazy bear. Wit-Ko is a Siouan word that has multiple translations: crazy, foolish, frightening and mad. Crazy Bear has been recorded by these names and also in French as Ours Fou (in various sketches and documents).
He had three granddaughters; Iron Cradle (aka Sweet Grass), Turtle Door, Small Earth, and two grandsons; Black Bull and Kill Eagle. Iron Cradle later became an historical figure of the early Fort Belknap Indian Reservation, now located in Montana.
