A Siouan-speaking American Indian tribe living in Wisconsin and Nebraska in the United States. They first made contact with Europeans in the early 17th century, when they lived in Wisconsin, but in the mid-17th century spread westward as a result of the trade in fur products. They made a living by settling down and cultivating corn and beans, and by hunting wild buffalo. Their society consisted of two clans, each consisting of an exogamous clan. In 1865, the U.S. government forced them to settle on a designated reservation in Nebraska, but many resisted, and in 1875 they were allowed to have a designated reservation in Wisconsin as well. Because of their shared ancestry, there is frequent travel between the two groups, and the total population, including those outside the reservation, is estimated at about 2,000.

アメリカ,ウィスコンシン州,ネブラスカ州に住み,スー語を話すアメリカインディアンの一民族。ヨーロッパ人と初めて接触した 17世紀初頭には,ウィスコンシンに居住していたが,17世紀中頃に毛皮製品の交易の結果として西方に広がっていった。生業はトウモロコシ,豆類の定着農耕と野牛狩りを行なった。社会は外婚制氏族で構成される2つの胞族から成っていた。 1865年,合衆国政府によってネブラスカ州の指定居留地に定着を強いられたが,それに抵抗する者も多く,75年にウィスコンシン州にも指定居留地をもつことが認められた。互いに祖先をともにするという意識から,両者間の往来が頻繁になされており,総人口は居留地外も含めて,約 2000と推定される。
