Living in Kansas is unique because we had the Pawnee tribe to help limit the amount of wild bison we had and so we could learn about their culture.
The Pawnee Nation
The Pawnees lived on a reservation, which is land that belongs to them and is under their control. They have their own government, laws, police, and services.
Language
They mostly speak English, but most Pawnees, mostly elders speak Pawnee. Pawnee means “Nawah” which is a friendly greeting. (Lewis, 2015)
