Chief Joseph war ein Häuptling, der am 3. März 1840 geboren wurde und am 21. September 1904 verstarb. Er führte die Wal-lam-wat-kain-Gruppe der Nez-Percé-Indianer an, die im Wallowa-Flusstal im Nordosten Oregons lebten. Bekannt wurde er vor allem während des Nez-Percé-Krieges, wo er sich als kluger Anführer erwies. In seiner Jugend kannte man ihn als Young Joseph, weil sein Vater, Ta-weet Tu-eka-kas, einer der ersten Nez Percé war, der den gleichen Vornamen erhielt und daher oft Old Chief Joseph genannt wurde. Im Laufe der Zeit drangen immer mehr weiße Siedler in das Land der Nez Percé ein. Die Regierung der USA wollte die Nez Percé umsiedeln und ihr Land für die Besiedlung durch Weiße freigeben. Joseph war allerdings nicht der einzige Häuptling; es gab auch noch White Bird, Tulhulhulsote und Looking Glass, die ebenfalls eine wichtige Rolle spielten. Die Nez Percé wehrten sich gegen die Umsiedlung und versuchten unter der Führung von Joseph nach Kanada zu fliehen. Im Juni 1877 begannen sie ihre Flucht, die von Kämpfen mit US-Truppen begleitet war. Nach einer langen und verlustreichen Flucht über 2400 Kilometer kapitulierte Chief Joseph schließlich am 5. Oktober 1877 in den Bear Paw Mountains, kurz vor der kanadischen Grenze. Ein Teil der Nez Percé konnte nach Kanada entkommen, während der Rest in Gefangenschaft geriet. In den Folgejahren wurden die Nez Percé auf verschiedene Gebiete aufgeteilt und später wieder zusammengeführt. Joseph setzte sich für die Rückkehr seiner Leute in den Norden ein, jedoch ohne Erfolg. Erst 1885 durfte ein Teil der Nez Percé an den Columbia-Fluss in Idaho ziehen, während der andere Teil nach Colville in Washington umgesiedelt wurde. Dort starb Joseph im Jahr 1904.

Alice Cunningham Fletcher and Chief Joseph at the Nez Percé Lapwai Reservation in Idaho, where Fletcher arrived in 1889 to implement the Dawes Act. The man on one knee is James Stuart, Alice Fletcher's interpreter. According to Jane Gay in "With the Nez Perces" (University of Nebraska Press, 1981), Stuart customarily kneeled in this way when he felt anxious. Photograph provided by Jane Gay.

Chief Joseph’s Coat
Sioux origin
During the battle and siege at Bear Paw, there was a brief halt to the hostilities while Colonel Nelson Miles consulted with Chief Joseph. During this interlude, Second Lieutenant Lowell Jerome of the Second Cavalry, rode into Nez Perce lines. He was held by the Nez Perce and taken hostage when Joseph did not return. Jerome was later exchanged for Chief Joseph. It is claimed that this coat was given to Jerome by Joseph and was worn during the battle and siege at Bear Paw. Jerome donated this coat to his alma mater, the United States Military Academy at West Point. The coat is on loan to Big Hole National Battlefield from the US Military Academy Museum.

Chief Joseph, Nez Perce, when young , ca. 1871 - ca. 1907.
Description by museum: This photograph is historically significant and has great human interest as well. It may be the only extant copy in existence of F. M. Sargent's cabinet card of Nez Perce Chief Joseph and his family in Leavenworth where they were exiled from 1877 to 1885. Chief and his band of Nez Perce lived peacefully in the Wallowa Valley of Eastern Oregon until 1877 when the U.S. government decided to move the band to a small reservation in Idaho. When General O.O. Howard threatened a cavalry attack, a few dissatisfied warriors raided a settlement and killed several whites. Fearing retaliation, Joseph fled with his band of 700 men, women and children in a retreat towards Canada that covered 1400 miles. They finally gave up 40 miles from the Canadian border where Joseph uttered the famous words "From where the sun now stands, I will fight no more forever." Curator's statement: Look into Chief Josephs's face. What was he thinking and feeling at that moment? I believe this photograph is one of the most revealing portraits in our collection. You can see great dignity, pride, intelligence, and sadness in Joseph's face and body language as well as tension, and perhaps some anger.

Nez Perce named Yellow Bull at Chief Joseph's tombstone, Colville Indian Reservation, Washington, 1905. Man in full ceremonial dress (full-length feathered headdress, decorated and beaded clothing, holding a pipe). Same man in NA614. Men & women in western-style dress visible in background. Tombstone inscription facing the camera reads: He led his people in the Nez Perce War of 1877. Died Sept. 21, 1904. Aged about 60 years.
When settlers reached Oregon Territory in the 1850s, the Nez Perce were both powerful and friendly to the newcomers. Within twenty years, treaties replaced the rich traditional tribal lands with poor reservation land. Some tribal leaders questioned the treaties. Led by Chief Joseph, a band of Nez Perce fought off government troops, nearly escaping to safety in Canada. The Nez Perce were eventually moved to the Colville Reservation, near Walla Walla.
Seattle photographer Edward Curtis took this portrait of Nez Perce Chief Joseph a year or so before the chief's death in 1904. It is said that Chief Joseph died of a broken heart at not being able to return to the traditional lands of his people in Oregon.
