I believe the top one is on the cover of Liddic's Vanishing Victory. It's called Battle of the Little Big Horn by Gayle Porter Hoskins, 1928.

Setting aside the mass mounted charge....
This is the effect of the current markers. The painter assumes that the markers mean what they say, and there was nobody on the crest, and they died pretty much where the markers are. We know this to be wrong, but the fenced area affects how people view it: like a tight pro-active defensive position.

"momo" needs to be deep-sixed.
BTW, in that first piece of art— the artist evidently had a single gun & holster and dutifully copied it over and over. Of course, it could also be that that was the specified gear by the High Command on that day.
