Colestah (born around 1800, died 1865), was one of the five wives of Chief Kamiakin (1800–1877) of the Yakama Native American tribe. She is described as being a medicine woman, a psychic, and a "warrior woman". In 1858 she accompanied Kamiakin to the Battle of Four Lakes (or Battle of Spokane Plain) against Colonel George Wright, armed with a stone war club, vowing to fight by his side. When Kamiakin was wounded, Colestah carried him off and used her skills in traditional tribal medicine to nurse him back to health.
