Abstract While the Battle of the Washita of 27 November 1868 is a well-documented event in Native American and Southern Plains history, especially regarding the Cheyenne, Kiowa involvement is little known. This work sheds light on which Kiowa were at the battle and their participation, through an examination of US military records, Kiowa ledger art, oral histories, onomastics, photographs, and an unpublished account from Kein-taddle of her husband’s (Chiefs Call Him) participation and later naming of three family members from his personal war actions in the battle. The account suggests not only that Chiefs Call Him was involved in the action against Major Joel Elliott and his detachment, who were killed that day, but that he also witnessed Elliott’s death and counted coup on him.

基奥瓦在瓦西塔战役中，1868 年 11 月 27 日

摘要 虽然 1868 年 11 月 27 日的 Washita 战役是美洲原住民和南部平原历史上一个有据可查的事件，尤其是关于夏延人，但基奥瓦人的参与鲜为人知。这项工作通过对美国军事记录、基奥瓦分类账艺术、口述历史、专名学、照片以及她丈夫的凯因塔德尔（酋长称他）未发表的帐户的检查，揭示了基奥瓦参与战斗及其参与的情况参与并后来从他在战斗中的个人战争行为中命名了三个家庭成员。该叙述不仅表明酋长称他参与了针对乔尔·埃利奥特少校及其支队的行动，他们当天被杀，而且他还目睹了埃利奥特的死，并指望他发生政变。
