Santee [Isanyati, from isaii 'knife,' 

 contraction of isanta-mde 'knife lake,' 

 Dakota name for Mille Lacs, and ati, ' to 

 pitch tents at '). An eastern division of 

 the Dakota, comprising the Mdewakanton 

 and Wahpekute, sometimes also the Sis- 

 seton and Wahpeton. Hennepin (1680), 

 who probably included only the Mde- 

 wakanton, savs (Descr. La., Shea's trans., 

 203, 1880): "^In the neighborhood of L. 

 Buade are many other lakes, whence 

 issue several rivers, on the banks of which 

 live the Issati, Nadouessans, Tinthonha 

 (which means prairie-men), Ouadeba- 

 thon River People, Chongaskethon Dog, 

 or Wolf tribe (for chonga among these 

 natioas means dog or wolf), and other 

 tribes, all which we comprise under the 

 name Nadouessiou [Sioux]." In Le 

 Sueur's list (1700) the Issati are omitted 

 and the Mdewakanton ( written Mendeou- 

 cantons) inserted, for the first time. The 

 name Santee was applied by the Mis- 

 souri River Dakota to all those of the 

 group living on Mississippi and lower 

 Minnesota rs., the Mdewakanton, Wah- 

 pekute, Wahpeton, and Sisseton. Ram- 

 sey (Rep. Ind. Aff. for 1849, 74, 1850) and 

 Riggs limit the use of the term to desig- 

 nate the Mdewakanton. McGee (15th 

 Rep. B. A. E., 160, 1897) includes only 

 the Wahpekute, which has been the usual 

 application of the term since 1862, when 

 the two tribes were gathered on the 

 Santee res. in Knox co., Neb. Reyata 

 is mentioned as a band and Ptansinta as 

 a village of the Santee. 



The tribes forming this group joined 

 under the collective name in the follow- 

 ing treaties with the United States: 

 Prairie du Chien, Wis., July 15, 1830; 

 St Louis, Mo., Oct. 13, 1830; Bellevue, 

 Neb., Oct. 15, 1836; Washington, D. C, 

 Feb. 19, 1867; Fort Laramie, Wyo., Apr. 

 29, 1868. See Dakota, and the Santee 

 divisions above given.
