American Toby Jug Museum 

Sitting Bull character jug produced by Byron Molds of the Netherlands circa 1975. Sitting Bull (1837-1890), also known as Tatanka Iyotake, was a Hunkpapa Lakota leader who led his people during years of resistance against United States government policies. He was killed by Indian agency police on the Standing Rock Indian Reservation during an attempt to arrest him, at a time when authorities feared that he would join the Ghost Dance movement. Before the Battle of the Little Bighorn, Sitting Bull had a vision in which he saw many soldiers, "as thick as grasshoppers", falling upside down into the Lakota camp, which his people took as a foreshadowing of a major victory in which many soldiers would be killed. A tomahawk forms the handle of the jug.
