Biawacheeitchish, the legendary "Woman Chief" was a warrior & leader who had several wives.

Woman Chief was kind of a big deal, ranking third on the Crow's Council of Chiefs. She lead for possibly 20 years before being assassinated around 1858.

She also had stories written about her by Europeans, but these are mostly-to-wholly sensational fictions and don't reflect her actual life.
