Shoshone and Arapaho Tribes

The Shoshone and Arapaho are Native American tribes with distinct histories and cultures. The Shoshone, originally from the Great Basin area, were nomadic, hunting and gathering, and later adapted to various environments.

They have played important roles in the history of the American West and continue to maintain their heritage and sovereignty.
