Chief Broken Arm was a major chief of the Nez Perce who met with Lewis and Clark on their exploration mission. He provided Lewis and Clark with dug out canoes, which proved to be instrumental in their journey. It has been documented that for his assistance, Chief Broken Arm received the Jefferson Peace Medal.
Interestingly enough, there is no surviving record as to how Chief Broken Arm received his name.
