Doane Robinson
Jonah LeRoy "Doane" Robinson (October 19, 1856 – November 27, 1946) was a state historian of South Dakota.
He is known for conceiving of the idea for the Mount Rushmore National Memorial in the Black Hills, which he believed would stimulate tourism to the area.
The Lakota people, who consider the Black Hills to be sacred ground, objected to this project but were unable to prevent it.
This territory used to be within the Great Sioux Reservation, but the United States broke up and decreased the size of the reservations after gold was discovered in the Black Hills.
Robinson gained support from the US Senator from South Dakota, and in 1929 President Calvin Coolidge approved the project after Congress authorized funding.
The project was completed in 1941.
Black Hills
The Black Hills are a small and isolated mountain range rising from the Great Plains of North America in western South Dakota and extending into Wyoming, United States.
Black Elk Peak( formerly known as Harney Peak), which rises to, is the range's highest summit.
The Black Hills encompass the Black Hills National Forest.
The name" Black Hills" is a translation of the Lakota".
The hills were so- called because of their dark appearance from a distance, as they were covered in trees.
Native Americans have a long history in the Black Hills.
After conquering the Cheyenne in 1776, the Lakota stole the territory of the Black Hills, which became central to their culture.
In 1868, the U.S. government signed the Fort Laramie Treaty of 1868, establishing the Great Sioux Reservation west of the Missouri River, and exempting the Black Hills from all white settlement forever.
However, when settlers discovered gold there in 1874, as a result of George Armstrong Custer's Black Hills Expedition, miners swept into the area in a gold rush.
The US government took back the Black Hills and in 1889 reassigned the Lakota, against their wishes, to five smaller reservations in western South Dakota, selling off 9 million acres of their former land.
Unlike most of South Dakota, the Black Hills were settled by European Americans primarily from population centers to the west and south of the region, as miners flocked there from earlier gold boom locations in Colorado and Montana.
As the economy of the Black Hills has shifted from natural resources( mining and timber) since the late 20th century, the hospitality and tourism industries have grown to take its place.
Locals tend to divide the Black Hills into two areas:" The Southern Hills" and" The Northern Hills".
The Southern Hills is home to Mount Rushmore, Wind Cave National Park, Jewel Cave National Monument, Black Elk Peak( the highest point in the United States east of the Rockies, formerly and still more commonly known as Harney Peak), Custer State Park( the largest state park in South Dakota), the Crazy Horse Memorial, and the Mammoth Site in Hot Springs, the world's largest mammoth research facility.
Attractions in the Northern Hills include Spearfish Canyon, historic Deadwood, and the Sturgis Motorcycle Rally, held each August.
The first Rally was held on August 14, 1938 and the 75th Rally in 2015 saw more than 1 million bikers visit the Black Hills.
Devils Tower National Monument, located in the Wyoming Black Hills, is an important nearby attraction and was the United States' first national monument.
