Weary of fighting he soon accepted a tribal land outside Pueblo Colorado but only to see his men, woman and children massacred by drunken Colorado militants (not US regulars).

Arapaho Trib The Arapaho tribe of Wyoming is one of four groups of Arapaho who originally occupied the headwaters of the Arkansas and platte rivers. The first years in the 1600s the Arapaho once resided together to the east near the Great Lakes farther north in Canada.The last last year was 1890 when the Northern Arapaho conflict with the US Cavalry was during wovokas ghost dance turmoil.

The Cheyenne’s didn’t travel as one collective group, they were split into two groups that ranged across the Great Plains in what is now South Dakota, Wyoming, Nebraska, Colorado, and Kansas.
