The Cheyenne people are a Native American tribe originally from the Great Plains of North America. They are known for their rich cultural heritage, which includes traditional practices, languages, and social structures. Historically, the Cheyenne were nomadic, following buffalo herds and living in tipis, which were well-suited for their mobile lifestyle. Today, the Cheyenne are divided into two main groups: the Northern Cheyenne and the Southern Cheyenne. Both groups continue to preserve their traditions while also participating in modern society. They celebrate their heritage through events like the Cheyenne Frontier Days, which showcases their history and culture.
