Historically the Lakota or Teton Sioux were nomadic buffalo hunters who grew no crops of any kind.
The general Lakota term for buffalo is pte (p-tay), which also signifies a buffalo cow. A buffalo bull is tatanka or tabloka.
It was used to protect the people from harm. The Sioux Indians thought it was a magical power to keep them safe.
The Lakota Sioux lived in teepees made out of long poles and wooden sticks. They lived in the plains but part of the Sioux lived in Minessota and Wisconsin so they got the wood from there. They hunted buffalo and conserved the hide so that's where they got the buffalo hide.
