Title: Two Nez Perce warriors buried in Idaho after century-long exile
SPALDING, Idaho -- Two Nez Perce warriors were buried in northcentral Idaho on Friday and Saturday, more than a century after they died in the 1877 Battle of the Big Hole.
Since that battle, their remains have been stored at the Smithsonian Institution's Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C.
On Friday, a warrior whose name isn't known was buried in the tiny Spalding Cemetery next to the Nez Perce National Historical Park.
A day later, the skull of Pahkatos Owyeen, or Five Wounds, was buried next to his son, William Jackson, at the tribal cemetery in Lapwai, two miles from Spalding near the Clearwater River.
