Montana's Indian Cultures

Second Edition

    

           Montana has been the cross-road for three American Indian Culture Areas: the Plains (and particularly the Northern Plains), the Plateau, and the Great Basin. Indian tribes from these different culture areas have been important in Montana’s history and continue to play an important role in Montana today. For each of these three culture areas, this book provides insights into—

  • Material Culture: including hunting, gathering, fishing, tribal architecture, clothing, and other artifacts
  • Social Organization: including family, government, economics, associations, warfare
  • Spirituality: including beliefs, sacred areas, and ceremonies
  • Language
Montana’s Indian Cultures will serve as an important resource for all who have an interest in Montana’s Indian people.
 

This text book provides an overview of the three culture areas—Northern Plains, Plateau, and Great Basin—which are important to the Indian nations of Montana.
