  • The deeds of Sacagawea are well known to students of the Lewis and Clark<br /> Expedition. But a curious mystique completely envelopes two dimensions of her<br /> life’s story: 1) A disparity persists among her admirers concerning the derivation,<br /> spelling, pronunciation, and meaning of her name; and 2) A dispute has raged<br /> for nearly a century, concerning her fate following the expedition, especially<br /> events relating to the time and place of her final hours. With respect to the<br /> latter, a popular theory that evolved through a circumstance of mistaken<br /> identity purports that she died April 9, 1884, and was buried at Fort Washakie,<br /> Wind River Indian Reservation, Wyoming. Contravening that theory is decisive<br /> documentary evidence that traces a complete chronology of her life, conclusively<br /> placing her at Fort Manuel (South Dakota), at the time of her death, December<br /> 20, 1812.
