— Plains Indians Life, Beliefs and Practices —

The Plains Indians were inseparable from the land they roamed. The Plains were home to the buffalo, which the tribes followed during all but the winter months. Under the star-filled sky of the prairie, they showed reverence to the Great Spirit through complex and meaningful ceremonies. They were skilled hunters. Fierce warriors. Riveting storytellers. Though constantly on the move, the Plains Indians lived in tightly knit communities that, for them, symbolized the entire universe. What follows is a brief account of their vast and profound tradition.
