Through the centuries, Plains Indians received spiritual guidance from their creator at this mountain, known as Noavosse in Cheyenne, meaning "The good Mountain," and Mato Paha in Sioux, meaning "Bear Mountain." Here the Cheyenne Prophet, Sweet Medicine, received the 4 sacred arrows, the 4 Commandments, and a moral code. Here the Sioux worshipped Wankan Tanka and paid tribute to the Spiritual Ruler. To this day, Indians still visit and pray at their sacred mountain.
