Cheyenne...
"Cheyenne, meaning ‘foreign speaker’ in Dakota, is one of the
Algonquian family of American Indian languages.   Originally
from Minnesota, the Cheyenne were pushed westward alternate-
ly by the Ojibwa and the Sioux.   They settled in western South
Dakota until about 1830, when the tribe split into southern and
northern branches.   The volatile Southern Cheyenne were con-
stantly at war with the neighboring tribes, although they were
friendly with white settlers until the Black Hills Gold Rush.   The
Northern Cheyenne, a nomadic group who joined the Sioux at
the Battle of Little Big Horn, were confined to a reservation in
Oklahoma with the Southern Cheyenne until a separate area was
set aside for them in Montana.   It is estimated there are about
3,000 Cheyenne living in Oklahoma and 2,000 in Montana."
