October 25, 1870 marked a turning point in indigenous Canadian history when 600-800 Cree warriors attacked a Blackfoot encampment near present-day Lethbridge, Alberta. Ignoring Chief Piapot's prophetic dream of disaster, they launched a dawn raid that initially succeeded but quickly unraveled as they encountered the full might of the Blackfoot Confederacy. This definitive account chronicles the tactical decisions, brutal fighting at the riverbank, and the desperate retreat that left hundreds dead in what would become known as the Battle of Belly River. Through detailed historical research, we present the complex tribal alliances, resource conflicts, and warfare strategies that defined this last major inter-tribal confrontation on Canadian soil.
