Guide Rock (hill)
Guide Rock, whose Pawnee name is Pa-hur or Pahur, is a hill in south central Nebraska in the United States. In the traditional Pawnee religion, it was one of five dwelling places of spirit animals with miraculous powers.
In 1806, Zebulon Pike found a large Pawnee village nearby; he persuaded the inhabitants to lower the flag of Spain and replace it with that of the United States.
The hill's English name was given to the nearby village of Guide Rock, Nebraska.
