Fort Sill's Old Post Guard House was established from 1872 to 1873 as Cavalry barracks subsequently provisioned for a military stockade. The limestone structure is illustrative of the late 19th century confinement and relief formalities for hostile tribal leaders and Indian prisoners of war at the Fort Sill military camp. The domestic stone framework serves with historical significance considering the calendar span of the American Indian assimilation commencing in the late nineteenth century.
