1 janv. 1804 - Lewis and Clark Meet Sacajawea

Description:

She was instrumental in the Lewis & Clark Expedition as a guide as they explored the western lands of the United States. Her presence as a woman helped dispel notions to the Native tribes that they were coming to conquer and confirmed the peacefulness of their mission. Her legacy carries on as Scagawea was placed as the front of the gold one dollar coin (USD). Her aid to Lewis and Clark in exploring Louisiana is of the uttmost importance, because without her, the western frontier would have never been developed to the magnitude it was.
