#100Days100Women Day 5: Lozen was a Chiricahua Apache woman, a tactician and fighter in Apache Wars. She was also a prophet called "a shield to her people". Lozen fought alongside her brother Victorio and Geronimo, as well as warrior woman Dahteste, who was close to Lozen and may have been her lover (caveat, I could not verify this within my means, but there seems to be enough behind it that it’s worth the mention-with-a-caveat). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lozen
*100Days100Women information is taken from sources on the internet and in my personal library. Though I research each drawing, some artistic liberties are taken with dress and props. History is something I love, but I am not an historian, but an artist attempting to bring forgotten history to the fore, and to pique your curiosity for more info! I encourage everyone to find out more about these amazing women!
