Summary
The great Indian chief Geronimo was a prominent leader and medicine man from the Bedonkohe band of the Apache tribe. From 1850 to 1886 Geronimo joined with members of three other Chiricahua Apache bands-the Tchihende, the Tsokanende and the Nednhi-to carry out numerous raids as well as resistance to US and Mexican military campaigns in the northern Mexico states of Chihuahua and Sonora, and in the southwestern American territories of New Mexico and Arizona. Geronimo's legendary raids and related combat actions were a part of the prolonged period of the Apache-United States conflict, which started with the American settlement in Apache lands following the end of the war with Mexico in 1848.
