The Southern Cheyenne are a Native American tribe originally from the Great Plains, primarily in present-day Colorado and Wyoming. They are part of the larger Cheyenne nation, which is divided into two main groups: the Northern Cheyenne and the Southern Cheyenne. Historically, they were known for their nomadic lifestyle, following bison herds and living in tipis. Today, the Southern Cheyenne are primarily located in Oklahoma, where they were relocated in the late 19th century. They maintain their cultural heritage through traditional practices, language, and community events. The tribe is recognized by the federal government and participates in various programs to preserve their history and support their members.
