Geronimo and his people pose for a photo after their capture by US troops in 1886. At the height of the Apache wars, the Chiricahua were capable of eluding capture by running as many as 50 miles a day. J. McDonald/AKG-Images/Newscom/File
This portrait of Geronimo was taken in 1887. The famous war leader was believed to have special powers, including the ability to survive gunshot. He was thought to be protected by 'Usen,' the Apache god, and attracted many followers. AKG-Images/Newscom/File
