Description
The Blackfoot Native American tribe was among the first indigenous tribes to inhabit the Great Plains and Canadian Prairies of North America. The Blackfoot Confederacy or Niitsitapi, which means "original people," is the collective name of three First Nation band governments in the Canadian provinces of Saskatchewan, Alberta, British Columbia, and one Native American tribe in Montana, United States. In the first half of the 18th century, they acquired horses and firearms from white traders. With their development of an equestrian culture during the 18th and 19th centuries, they became a nomadic culture, following vast herds of buffalo. Resistance to domination by the government and military forces of Canada and United States made the Blackfoot and other Native American tribes of the Great Plains a model for literature and art; as depicted in this digital painting, Following the Buffalo.
