Devils Tower was declared America’s first national monument in 1906 — but its name carries controversy. Native tribes had long called it “Bear Lodge,” a sacred site tied to ancient legends. A translation error turned it into “Bad God’s Tower,” later shortened to “Devils Tower.” Many tribes still seek to restore its original name, honoring its true spiritual meaning and history. #devilstower #nationalmonument #mindblown #factsyoudidntknow #viralfacts #AncientHistory #history #nerdstheories | Nerd
