‘a Palouse horse. In time the ‘a’ and Palouse became joined together to form the name
Apalousey and then later Appaloosa. Not all the Nez Perce Indians bred horses. Some
of the tribe members followed a more conservative life of farming having been taught
by the early missionaries how to grow crops and raise livestock. They preferred to
stay near their villages safe from attack unlike the more independent members of the
tribe who continued to breed their fast sure footed Appaloosas to hunt in the buffalo
country.
Quickly they established a superior breed which grew in numbers to thousands of
horses in an economy where horses represented wealth and as a result the Nez Perce
became known as an affluent tribe. The Appaloosa’s characteristics went beyond their
multi-coloured coat patterns, as the Nez Perce bred only the strongest, fastest and most
versatile stock.
The US government entered into a treaty with the Nez Perce in 1855 which gave the
tribe 7 million acres of land most of which they already considered their territory.
In 1860 gold was discovered on the reservation resulting in an influx of settlers
establishing a town of some two thousand people in breach of the treaty. Conflict with
the tribe escalated as their lands were reduced and eventually a battle at White Bird
Canyon on 17 June 1877 marked the beginning of the war.
During the Nez Perce War in 1877, Chief Joseph and his tribe including women,
children and approximately 3000 horses eluded the US Cavalry for months during
their historic flight to Canada, when they covered over 1,300 miles of treacherous
terrain. They were finally beaten by the cruel snow and freezing conditions,
