In the article “Into the Unknown” by World Almanac, the explorers were welcomed by the native people. In the article, the author states,” Lewis and Clark found a Shoshone woman...named Sacagawea, who helped them with their negotiations (253). Sacagawea and her ability to speak Shoshone was a great benefit. This shows one way how the native americans got along with Lewis and Clark. When Lewis and Clark came to the western side of America, they began to settle near a “ large community of Mandan and Hidatsa Indians, which is now known as North Dakota” (253). This shows how the Native Americans allowed the two explorers to stay in their territory. In conclusion, the Native Americans did welcome Meriwether Lewis and William Clark.
