The Sioux Indians accepted the Ghost Dance religion in hopes of restoring the old ways before the settlers arrived. Who is credited with creating the Ghost Dance religion?

The American settlers, well at least some of them, seemed to search for any reason as to why the Native Americans could be perceived as a threat. The "Indian Ghost Dance" was a religious movement that the Indians use to spread hope, even though their situation was dismal. The U.S. Army misinterpreted this dance as a WAR DANCE, an assumption which led to the battles of "Wounded Knee" and the "Massacre of Sioux".
