314. Guardian of the Grove Statue

This bronze statue of a Kaw (Kanza) Warrior honors the Kaw (Kanza) American Indian tribe. It is a tribute to the American Indian people who have refused to fade away into extinction; it stands as a challenge to future generations to preserve our history.  Sculptor Thomas Mark Sampsel donated his time and talent to create The Guardian of the Grove for the city of Council Grove.
