Cheyenne History
A river in Minnesota
Cheyenne people are related to the Algonquin people, and from the Paleo-Indian period onward they lived in the Great Lakes area (in modern Minnesota), along with other Algonquin people like the Cree. "Cheyenne" is a Sioux word for "people who speak a different language". Unlike the Algonquin and the Cree, though, Cheyenne people were farmers. They lived in villages and made pottery. They grew corn, like other Native Americans.
