Each tribe had its own name for the Yellowstone area, many of them referring to the yellow earth and rocks of the region.
In Hidatsa, the term was mitsiadazi (mi' = stone, tsi = yellow, azi or adazi - river).
The Yellowstone river was called Elk River (Iichíilikaashaashe) by the Crows; the words for elk and for yellow are very similar in Crow, so it is possible that early explorers mistranslated the term as "Yellow River".
