Oklahoman the land of the Red Man was the 'End of the trail' for 67 tribes which were relocated to the Indian Territory.
The End of the Trail, the magnificent iconic statue standing in the entry of the National Cowboy & Western Heritage Museum signifies a Native American and his horse, both weary in body and spirit at the end of their journey. Sculpted by American-born artist James Earle Fraser, The End of the Trail statue, one of the most recognizable images in the United States, has come to symbolize the genocide of Native American peoples amid relentless westward expansion.
Thanks a lot Bridget!
