By Mike Bowen, co-author, We Found the Lost Sand Creek Site
The Lt. Bonsall map was the Rosetta Stone for Chuck and Sheri Bowen’s Lost Sand Creek site discovery. This map documents a place where three trails split off, called Three Forks, a very important landmark for documenting Sand Creek.
Lt. Bonsall went to the Sand Creek battle location in 1868, nearly four years after the event and measured the distance of the village. There would still be burned tipi remains that would help him determine the length of the of the village.
This map corroborates the Bowens’ discovery and their discovery corroborates the map.
Check out the video to see where Black Kettle’s village on Sand Creek was located compared to where Bowens found battle and village artifacts.
No period artifacts have been found below the National Park Service Sand Creek site bluff as the massacre story says that is where the Indians were camped and attacked by the soldiers.
No bullets, no battlefield. No village artifacts, no village.
A lie told a thousand times is still a lie.
If we have to tell the truth a thousand times, or more, we will.
Truth matters. Truth wins.
