What is the name of the famous Apache leader who died in 1909 at the age of 70?

The story behind the answer

Geronimo is correct: he was the famed Chiricahua Apache leader who died in 1909. He led decades of resistance across the Southwest against U.S. and Mexican forces before finally surrendering in 1886 and living the rest of his life as a prisoner of war at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. By contrast, Sitting Bull died in 1890, Crazy Horse in 1877, and Red Cloud—an Oglala Lakota leader, not Apache—though he also died in 1909, was from a different nation.

Remember him by his Apache name, Goyaałé (“the one who yawns”), and the enduring “Geronimo!” battle cry—echoing his fearless raids and repeated escapes. He even appeared at world’s fairs and in parades, becoming a complex symbol of both resistance and the changing fate of Native peoples in the late 19th century.
