Touch the Clouds
Touch the Clouds( Lakota: Maȟpíya Ičáȟtagya or Maȟpíya Íyapat'o)( c. 1838 – September 5, 1905) was a chief of the" Minneconjou" Teton Lakota( also known as Sioux) known for his bravery and skill in battle, physical strength and diplomacy in counsel.
The youngest son of Lone Horn, he was brother to Spotted Elk, Frog, and Roman Nose.
There is evidence suggesting that he was a cousin to Crazy Horse.
When Touch the Clouds's" Wakpokinyan" band split in the mid-1870s, the band traveled to the Cheyenne River Agency.
He assumed the leadership of the band in 1875 after the death of his father and retained leadership during the initial period of the Great Sioux War of 1876- 77.
After the Battle of the Little Bighorn, he took the band north, eventually surrendering at the Spotted Tail Agency, where he enlisted in the Indian Scouts.
However, not long after being present at the death of Crazy Horse, Touch the Clouds transferred with his band back to the Cheyenne River Agency.
Touch the Clouds became one of the new leaders of the Minneconjou at the Cheyenne River Agency in 1881, keeping his position until his death on September 5, 1905.
Upon his death his son, Amos Charging First, took over as the new chief.
