The grasses and sunflowers of the plains of Eastern Colorado hide the horrible history of the Sand Creek Massacre National Historic Site. It was in these cottonwood trees that over 150 Cheyenne and Arapaho Indians were killed without provocation by Colonel John Chivington and two regiments of soldiers on the morning of November 29, 1864. The tribes under Black Kettle and White Antelope, had signed a treaty committing to live in peace, but Chivington was looking for political gain and took it upon himself to instigate a massacre of unassuming men, women and children.The massacre site was kept secret for years and was not identified publically until 1999. In 2007 the Sand Creek Massacre National Historic Site was established outside of Eads, Colorado.
