- Description:
- The Southern Arapaho tribe, known for their ceremonial activities and decorative arts, have a history that is not well documented. They were already residing in the interior Great Plains by the time of European contact, and were involved in trading horses and hides with other tribes. The tribe is divided into the Northern Arapaho of Wyoming and the Southern Arapaho of Oklahoma. The Arapaho lifestyle was similar to other Plains tribes, with a diet based on bison and cooperative hunting techniques. The tribe may have originally been horticultural people before becoming nomadic. The early Arapaho were not a single group, but had at least four major divisions.
