Ute people

The Ute people are a Native American tribe originally from the western United States, primarily living in present-day Utah, Colorado, Nevada, and New Mexico. They have a rich cultural heritage rooted in hunting, gathering, and later, agriculture. Traditionally, Utes practiced seasonal migrations to access different resources, and they have strong social, spiritual, and ceremonial traditions. Today, Ute tribes maintain their cultural identity through language, festivals, and community initiatives, while also participating in modern society. They are recognized as sovereign nations, working to preserve their history, culture, and rights.
