Lozen (Apache) and Dahteste (top row, sixth and fifth from the right) among the captive Chiricahuas in 1886 |
As a result of visions she received as a young woman, Lozen acquired the power to locate the enemy and to heal wounds. Fighting with Geronimo, she also served as a mediator, together with her friend Dahteste, in negotiations with the American military. Lozen and Dahteste lived together during the tribe's captivity until Lozen's death from tuberculosis in 1889.
