Native American Tribes

There is NO PAYWALL on this page.

Here is a partial list of Native American Tribes (mostly Western)
along with most of the references to them in The Old West Daily Reader.
Another of those complicated, involved sections which I work on periodically.
Always adding new material… Doc

Beginning in the 1500’s, the horse, acquired from the Spanish, caused significant changes to the lifestyles of many Native American tribes. Dramatic as those changes were in the west, they didn’t hold a candle to the coming of the white man. Tribal territories, affiliations and lifestyles; everything changed dramatically over a period of about 150 years; some six or seven generations. The last two or three of those generations faced the full onslaught of the white culture. The time period we consider the Old West encompassed the final battles and the subjugation of the remaining free tribes; known as the Indian Wars. * Some tribes were decimated outright by disease or conflict. Others migrated either by choice or by force; often moving west because of tribes east of them, now armed with the white man’s weaponry, were themselves being displaced by the whites. The destruction of the buffalo herds and the associated devastation to the tribes, disrupted the self-sufficient lifestyle of Indian people more than all other federal policies. By the end of the 19th Century, the Native American population was only 237,000, down from one million a century earlier. The snapshots of the tribes presented here are very limited and only intended to offer context for an approach to this incredibly complex story.

Please keep in mind: The Native Americans are the ultimate authorities on their own histories.

Traditional Ute territory map - Native American TribesFirst mention by Spanish chroniclers 1626, then by Fray Francisco de Escalante in 1776.
Ancestral Lands: centered in Colorado but also parts of New Mexico, Utah and Wyoming.
Traditionally nomadic hunter-gatherers, particularly in the western more desert-like part of their territory. The eastern mountainous areas provided more variety in plants and larger more plentiful game, if a colder climate.
The Spanish invasion into the Southwest from Mexico began c. 1530’s. Likely first contact with Europeans was late 1500’s  with horses being acquired late 1600’s via trade with Pueblo Indians to the south. First Treaty with the Spaniards 1670. As with most tribes, the mobility of the horse led to lifestyles similar to those of the plains Indians. They became very successful nomadic mountain buffalo hunter gatherers, raiders, slavers and traders. They raided Spanish settlements, warred occasionally with the Arapahoe and resisted any incursion into their lands by the whites. Including to some extent, the Mountain Men. The Mormon invasion of Utah beginning in 1847 led to major conflicts. The Walker War of 1853 and The Black Hawk War of the 1860’s. But it was to be mining and the theft of their lands that brought the oncoming white culture into the final conflict with the Utethat and an over zealous missionary . All resulting in the Ute being forced onto reservations in Utah and Colorado by the Army 1879 & 1881.

Assiniboine

Assiniboine and Grosventre Tribal Flag - Narive American Tribes

Assiniboine and Grosventre Tribal Flag

Iron Confederacy

This tribe who live to the North of most of the Sioux peoples were the first of the Siouan-speaking peoples to leave the Eastern Woodlands and move onto the Great Plains. Speaking a Siouan language closely related to the Sioux language but are not considered part of the modern Oceti Sakowin. They had separated as a separate people sometime before 1640, when they were first documented as a tribe by French missionaries. Other Sioux-speakers referred to them as the Hohe, (rebels). The Canadian Nakoda (Stoney) possibly began as the westernmost band of the Assiniboine, but were referred to as a separate people after about 1744. Later, in the nineteenth century, further bands belonging to the Dakota peoples and to a lesser extent to the Lakotas, also moved to Canada and their descendants still live in several of the Canadian First Nations.
The tribe became a member of the Iron Confederation with the Cree. (c. 1840’s).
Through the Confederation, they became reliable and important trading partners and middlemen, in the vast area known then as Rupert’s Land in western Canada, for Hudson’s Bay Company and the North West Company. Later, during the later 18th century and early 19th century, south of the border in what became Montana and the Dakota territories, the tribe traded with the American Fur Company and the competing Rocky Mountain Fur Company. The trade was for guns, gunpowder, metal tomahawks, metal pots, wool blankets, wool coats, wool leggings, and glass beads and other goods in exchange for beaver pelts, bison robes and other furs.
Increased contact with Europeans resulted in Native Americans contracting endemic Eurasian infectious diseases, most notably smallpox. The tribe suffered epidemics with high mortality and the population crashed from around 10,000 people in the late 18th century to around 2600 by 1890.

Blackfeet: Siksika  {Blackfoot – those with black-dyed mocasins} (north)
Blood: Kainai, Kainah {blood} (middle)
Piegan: Piikáni, Pigunni {poorly dressed} (south)

An Algonquian people of the North American Great Plains. Eastern U.S. > North Dakota, Wyoming and Montana. Migratory plains hunter gatherers from the east until acquiring the horse in the 1700’s then, primarily buffalo hunters and Raiders. Raised tobacco. Notably defensive of territory

Largest of three Blackfoot-speaking groups that made up the Blackfoot Confederacy.
Piegan peoples in Canada and the United States were forced to divide their traditional homelands in the nineteenth century according to the national borders .  They were forced to sign treaties with one of those two countries, settle in reservations on one side or the other of the border, and be enrolled in one of two government-like bodies sanctioned by these two North American nation-states. The two successor groups are the Blackfeet Nation a “federally-recognized tribe” in Montana, USA and the Piikani Nation, a recognized “Indian band” in Alberta, Canada.

The Blackfeet are fairly recent occupiers of this area. Until 1600 CE, they resided in an area of the woodlands north and west of the Great Lakes. Pressure exerted by British traders at James Bay in present day Canada on the Algonquin-speaking tribes in the area drove the Blackfeet out onto the Northern Plains. They eventually acquired firearms and horses, and became a formidable example of the classic Plains Indian culture. They were a powerful force, controlling an area that extended from current day Edmonton, Alberta Province, nearly to Yellowstone Park, and from Glacier Park to the Black Hills of South Dakota. Their sacred history became centered in the Badger-Two Medicine area, known as their “Cathedral”.
In the late 19th century, Blackfeet territory was encroached on by European Americans and Canadians, and various branches of the people were forced to cede lands and ultimately move to smaller Indian reservations in the United States and reserves in Canada.[4] Adjacent to their reservation, established by Treaty of 1896, are two federally controlled areas: the Lewis and Clark National Forest, set up in 1896, which contains the Badger-Two Medicine area, an area of 200 square miles (130,000-acres); and Glacier National Park, both part of the tribal nation’s former territory.  {001}

The Warrior Societies

Along with the Council of Forty-four, Cheyenne military societies were one of the two central institutions of traditional Cheyenne Indian tribal governance.  Council chiefs were responsible for overall governance of individual bands and the tribe as a whole. The chiefs or headmen of military societies were in charge of maintaining discipline within the tribe, overseeing tribal hunts and ceremonies, and providing military leadership. Council chiefs selected which of the six military societies would assume these duties; after a period of time on-duty, the chiefs would select a different society to take up the duties.

The Four Original Societies
Originally established by the prophet Sweet Medicine,
these four societies were the original Cheyenne military societies.
Over time, some have transformed or developed branches.

Fox
Fox Warriors Society (Vóhkêséhetaneo’o or Monêsóonetaneo’o), also known as Swift Fox or Kitfox.
This society is found among both the Northern and the Southern Cheyenne.
The Coyote Warriors Society (O’ôhoménotâxeo’o) and Flintmen Society
(Motsêsóonetaneo’o) are branches of the Fox Warriors Society.

Elk
Elk Warriors Society (Vóhkêséhetaneo’o or Monêsóo)
also known as Elk Horn Scrapers, Bone Scraper Society, Hoof Rattle,
Crooked Lance, Headed Lance or Medicine Lance.
This society is found among both the Northern and the Southern Cheyenne.
This was the society of the mixed-blood Cheyenne George Bent
and the famous warrior Roman Nose.

Shield
Shield Warriors Society (Ma’êhoohevaso) also known as Red Shield.
This society was originally found in both the Northern and the Southern Cheyenne,
but today is found only among the Northern Cheyenne. Buffalo Warriors (Hotóanótâxeo’o),
also known as Buffalo Bull or Bull, is a branch of the Shield Warriors Society.

Bowstring
Bowstring Men (Héma’tanóohese), also known as the Owl Man’s Bowstring.
This society was originally found in both the Northern and the Southern Cheyenne.
Today, it is found only among the Southern Cheyenne.
Wolf Warriors Society (Ho’néhenótâxeo’o),
this is the alternate name for the Bowstring Men among the Southern Cheyenne.
This society developed out of the Bowstring Men in the 19th Century by a vision held by Owl Friend.

More modern additions…

Fifth society
Dog Warrior Society (Hotamétaneo’o), also known as Dog Men.
This society was also called Dog Soldiers by the whites.
The Dog Warrior Society was established by a directive given in a visionary dream after the prophet Sweet Medicine’s departure.
This society was originally found in both the Northern and the Southern Cheyenne,
but today is found only among the Southern Cheyenne.

Crazy Dogs (Hotamémâsêhao’o), also known as Foolish Dogs.
This society is similar to the Bowstring Men in function but found only among the Northern Cheyenne.
Among the Northern Cheyenne, Dog Warrior Society and Wolf Warriors merged,
which resulted in the development of the new breed of Dog Warriors now called the Crazy Dogs.
The Crazy Dogs are considered by many to be a sixth society instead of a branch of the fifth society.

Sixth society
Contrary Warriors Society (Hohnóhkao’o) also known as the Inverted Bow-string Society.
Its members, the Contrary Warriors, have proved in bravery by riding backward into battle.

Contrary Society, also known as Clown Society
This society draws upon the same spiritual powers as the Contrary Warriors Society;
this society was primarily composed of Cheyenne elders and may be a mature variation of the Contrary Warriors Society.
They were charged with educating the Cheyenne ceremonial ways of the cultural “dos” and “don’ts”
through humor, sarcasm and satire, in a fashion that is contrary to the normalcy of traditional Cheyenne culture.

Comanche

Nʉmʉnʉʉ
The People

The Comanche Nation were once a part of the Shoshone Tribe. In the late 1600’s and early 1700’s, they migrated across the plains, through Wyoming, Nebraska, Colorado, Kansas, New Mexico, Texas, and Oklahoma, ultimately settling in Southwest Oklahoma. There was no Chief who had central authority over the entire tribe. Comanche Bands were formed on the basis of kinship and other social relationships. Membership was not static. There were a number of reasons one might change bands, marriage, or to  go on a raid with another band, etc. Each band had two chiefs: a Peace Chief (Civil Chief) and a War Chief. The Peace Chief, determined when and where the tribe would move and acted within a council as a decision making body for resolving disputes and crimes among the band. The War Chief was, most often a well recognized, exceptional warrior. The title was mostly advisory, an honorific, he did not suggest targets, chose the participating warriors or lead the war parties (except those of his own making). The Peace Chief was usually superior. Leadership was based solely on merit and the strength of their following. They had no authority outside of their own band.

Historians generally agree that there were five major bands at the turn of the 18th century.
They were:

Yamparika (Yap Eaters)
The northernmost band, inhabiting lands south of the Arkansas River
see:
Wk. ?? – Bents Old Fort

Kotsoteka (Buffalo Eaters)
Inhabiting the Canadian River Valley in what would become Oklahoma and the Texas Panhandle

Penateka (Honey Eaters)
The Southernmost Band, inhabiting most of central and southern Texas.

Nokoni (Wanderers)
The “middle” Comanches, inhabiting north Texas and Oklahoma
between the Penateka and the northern bands.

Quahadis (Antelopes)
Inhabited the area of the headstreams of the Colorado, Brazos and Red Rivers.
see:
Wk. 08, 02/22/1911 – Quanah Parker

All of the bands had at least 1,000 members, the Penateka was once estimated at 5,000 or more. The entire tribe may have reached 20,000 members at its peak. It was barely over 1,000 after the Red River War (1872 – 74)

No doubt, other bands came and went; became casualties of raids or war, etc.

Lifestyle: Nomadic Raiders, Traders, Buffalo Hunters

The buffalo was an important resource, providing food, clothing, tepee covering, and a wide variety of other goods.
This tribe was highly skilled at breeding and trading horses, a key element in Comanche culture. Fighting battles on horseback, with skill beyond other Indian peoples of the time, led to a tremendous advantage in times of war. Comanche horsemen set the pattern of nomadic equestrian life that became characteristic of the Plains tribes in the 18th and 19th centuries.

This very abreviated story of these southeasten peoples forced west is, ‘classic with variations’, for a short look at pertinent events with little more detail  than Old West Daily Reader usually provides. Eventually, a companion piece to Dakota War (1862) and the Modoc War (1872-73).

The nation descends from the historic Muscogee Confederacy,
a large group of indigenous peoples of the Southeastern Woodlands,
who lived in six towns in the future to be, Alabama and Georgia,
Cusseta, Coweta, Areka, Coosa, Hoithle Waule, and Tuckabatchee.
In the usual fashion of the times, they lost their ancestral lands
through outright war and criminal machinations of treaties, “land deals”
and such, purpetrated by by the Europeran invaders.

An estimated 3,500 Creeks died in Alabama and on the Trail of Tears.*

Ashshipíte  – today, called River Crow or(‘The Black Lodges’

Eelalapito – Kicked in the Bellies or Ammitaalasshé
Home Away From The Center, that is, away from the Ashkúale – “Mountain Crow”

Apsaalooke oral history describes a fourth group, the Bilapiluutche – “Beaver Dries its Fur”
who may have merged with the Kiowa in the second half of the 17th century.

The Ashalaho or Mountain Crow, were the first to travel west, They were the largest Crow group to split from the Awatixa Hidatsa. Crow leader, No Intestines, had received a vision and led his people on a long migratory search for sacred tobacco, finally settling in the foothills and Rocky Mountains along the Upper Yellowstone River (present-day Wyoming-Montana border). This included the Big Horn and Absaroka Range (aka: Absalaga Mountains). The the eastern edge of their territory being the Black Hills.
The Binnéessiippeele, (River Crow) Tradition says they split from the Awatixa Hidatsa due to a dispute over a bison stomach. The Hidatsa called them Gixáa-iccá, “Those Who Pout Over Tripe”. They settled along the Yellowstone and Musselshell rivers south of the Missouri River and in the river valleys of the Big Horn, Powder and Wind rivers (historically known as the Powder River Country), sometimes traveling north to the Milk River.
Eelalapito – (Ammitaalasshé), claimed the area known as the Bighorn Basin, from the Bighorn Mountains in the east to the Absaroka Range to the west, and south to the Wind River Range in northern Wyoming. Occasionally settling in the Owl Creek Mountains, Bridger Mountains and in the south along the Sweetwater River.

By the early 19th century, the Apsáalooke fell into three independent groupings, who came together only for common defense.

Iron Confederacy

The Métis are a multi ancestral Indigenous peoples who share culture, traditions and language with those who trace family roots back to the descendants of Scottish and French Catholic (the majority) fur traders who created a 19th-century settlement called the Red River colony, which was then, located in present-day Manitoba and North Dakota.
Métis (Fr.) is an adjective referring to someone of mixed ancestry. Since the 18th century, the word has been used to describe individuals with mixed Indigenous and European ancestry. However, it is generally recognized that being Métis is far more than having mixed Indigenous and European heritage. The Métis have a distinct collective identity, customs and a way of life, unique from Indigenous or European roots.

Pawnee

Their self-name is Chatiks si chatiks, which translates as “Men of Men.”
The wolf is the symbol of the Pawnee. They were called “Wolves,” by other Plains tribes
because the wolf is known for courage and cunning.

The Pawnee are a Central Plains Indian tribe that historically lived in villages of earth lodges near the Loup, Republican, and South Platte rivers in  Nebraska and northern Kansas. Tribal activities throughout the year alternated between farming crops and hunting buffalo. The Pawnee language belongs to the Caddoan language family. 
The Pawnee were divided into two large autonomous groups: the Skidi/Skiri Federation living in the north and the Cawi/Chaui Federation living in the South (divided into several villages). The Cawi/Chaui were generally the leading political group even though the Skidi/Skiri-Federation were the most populous. Each band generally saw to its own. However, in response to pressures from the French, the Spanish, the Americans, and neighboring tribes, it became necessary for the Pawnee to draw ever closer together.
Today, they are federally recognized as the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma, based in Pawnee, OK.  {001}

FYI: I have included more information on the Sioux than the other tribes for several reasons:
First, I wanted to offer a small look at the complexity of infra-tribal relations, and the Sioux, were and are, a big, diverse tribe with a wide variety of territories and lifestyles; many of which were forced to change with the times.
Second: They tend to be seen as the iconic Western Indian of the Plains Indian Wars; just as the Apache and Comanche were an icons in their own right in the southwest. Although the names of Sioux warriors and the names of their bands loom large in the history of the Plains Wars; truth is, not all the Sioux were involved in the wars, because contingents of the tribe were well east of the conflicts of those times. Many had nothing to do with Custer and they were not involved in the catastrophe at Wounded Knee. The Sioux, as a group, were large enough to have experienced the full spectrum of the white invasion for good or ill and so, mirror and example the fate of all. As with other tribes, they still struggle with the government yet today.
Third: Information is readily available about the Sioux, partly because of all of the above.

Tribal members or others with knowledge of the subject, please feel free to offer suggestions or corrections. I want the information here to be accurate. – Doc

As with other Eastern Native Americans, there are not too many references here, as most interactions were in the European settlement and “Revolutionary” times in the Eastern U.S. and precede ” The West” of our focus in Old West Daily Reader. However, among these tribes are the first to have their lands stolen and be forced west to the “Indian Lands“, and they are also usually included in: The Originals – Battlefields and Massacres, as background and part of the complete story of Indian and European relation as they unfolded in the “New World”.

Yavapai Apache Nation

/əˈpæi/)
people

(1540) Migrating south from Alaska through Alberta and Wyoming, these Athabaskans had arrived in the American Southwest, sometime in the late 1400’s or early 1500’s. Splitting off from the Navaho, they soon divided into a dozen or more major sub groups throughout the American Southwest: Arizona, New Mexico with some areas in Colorado, Kansas, Oklahoma, Texas and northern Mexico > Florida reservation > Oklahoma reservation. Typically nomadic, raiders, hunter gatherers, some farmers > + horse in late 1600’s; some buffalo hunters. Western Apache tribes were matrilineal, tracing descent through the mother; newly wed couples usually resided in the village of the bride’s kin. society was divided into a number of matrilineal clans. Other groups traced their descent through both parents. Polygamy was practiced to some extent.
Sustained resistance to invasion by Mexicans (from the late 1500’s) until forced to make alliances due to pressure from the Comanche. Resistance to the Americans from the late 1500’s until the final capture of Geronimo [Chiricahua – Bedonkohe ] (1886).
The Yavapai-Apache Nation is made up of two distinct people: the Yavapai, who refer to themselves as Wipuhk’a’bah and speak Yuman, and the Apache, who refer to themselves as Dil’zhe’e and speak Athabaskan.

Yavapai – Today, three, primary, groups:

Estimated at about 800 people at the time of first contact with Europeans (c. 1700’s).
Generally matrilineal, tracing descent through the mother;
newly wed couples usually resided in the village of the bride’s kin.
Society was divided into a number of matrilineal clans.
The Llanero (“plains people”) lived in adobe houses with nearby farms
