Mangas Coloradas
(redirected from Red Sleeves)

   Also found in: Encyclopedia, Wikipedia 0.01 sec.

Mangas Coloradas (c. 1791–1863)

US Mimbreño Apache war chief. Repeated offences against his family and his people caused a turnabout of this one-time friend to the whites. He and his son-in-law, Cochise, were largely successful in keeping whites out of their territory. In 1863, while carrying a flag of truce, he was arrested, tortured, and killed. Mangas Coloradas was born in the southwest of present-day New Mexico.
