About this map

Pine Ridge Indian Reservation lands are documented here in the early 1950s, revealing a landscape defined by sharp topographical relief and the drainage basins of Grass Creek and Wounded Knee Creek. The survey, completed as part of a Department of the Interior program for the development of the Missouri River Basin, focuses on the institutional and spiritual markers of the area. Central to this section of the reservation are Indian School No 11 and St Marys Ch, providing precise locations for researchers interested in the mid-century social infrastructure of the Oglala Lakota people. Several isolated windmills are noted throughout the terrain, indicating the vital importance of water management in this part of South Dakota.
