Crowfoot (1830 – 25 April 1890) or Isapo-Muxika (; syllabics: ) was a chief of the Siksika First Nation. His parents, (Packs a Knife) and (Attacked Towards Home), were Kainai. He was five years old when was killed during a raid on the Crow tribe, and, a year later, his mother remarried to (Many Names) of the Siksika people among whom he was brought up.
