The Indians of the Plains. 

 The ranges for the various tribes are approximately indicated by the 



positions and extents of their respective name-. As a rule, these tribes 

 did not respect definite boundaries to their ranges, each tribe c laimin g 

 certain camping places, hut otherwise hunting and roaming where it 

 pleased. The typical Plain- tribes aiv designated by a star and range 

 north and south' across the area. To the east of them are the tribes 

 practising some agriculture, perhaps in imitation of the Woodland tribes. 

 On the west are a few tribes whose position is uncertain: hence, the 

 boundary for the culture area has been drawn through their range, thus 

 giving them an intermediate position.
