Collection Description:

This collection consists of original maps detailing locations of Indigenous nations in North America and military positions in areas such as Sand Creek and the Arkansas River. It includes correspondence between George Bent, a Cheyenne-American interpreter, George Hyde, a white historian, and George Grinnell, a white anthropologist while covering the years 1905-1918. In the interest of preserving and presenting the historical records, the University Libraries collects materials that document the perspectives presented by the creators. As a result, this collection contains objectionable depictions and language that do not reflect the current preferred terminology, or the values and norms of the University Libraries. CU Boulder Libraries acknowledges that it is located on the traditional territories and ancestral homelands of the Cheyenne, Arapaho, Ute and many other Native American nations. Their forced removal from these territories has caused devastating and lasting impacts. While the University of Colorado Boulder can never undo or rectify the devastation wrought on Indigenous peoples, we commit to improving and enhancing engagement with Indigenous peoples and issues locally and globally.

830 Equitable Building Denver, Colorado, August 19, 1914. Goerge E. Hyde, Esq., 3019 Burdette Omaha, Nebraska. Dear Sir:- Answering yours of August 3rd in regard to the exact locaÂ¬tion of Bent's Fort, meaning thereby the old and original Bent's Fort, I beg to reply that said fort was located in the N.W. Â¼ of the N.W. Â¼ of Sec. 23 Tp 23 S. Range 54 W. in what is now Otero County, Colorado. This location is about five miles up the Arkansas River from the mouth of what is now known as Horse Creek. Col. William Bent built a later fort which would be approximately thirty-eight miles to the eastward of the present site, that, however, has no historic value. The location is also approximately seven miles from the town of La Junta. Hoping this information will be of service to you, I am, Yours truly, A.E Reynolds
