Chief Cameahwait. I think.
Well, actually, on the expedition, Meriwether Lewis and William Clark met up with the Hidatsas. On their journey to the Shoshone grounds, the Hidatsas gave Lewis and Clark Sacagawea and her husband, Toussaint Charbonneau. Sacagawea was a translator who spoke Shoshone, and her husband also helped out in the translations for trading, so actually, Sacagawea wasn't discovered by Lewis and Clark, she was more introduced. :)
Lewis and Clark met various Native American tribes during their journey, including the Mandan, Shoshone, and Nez Perce. They also encountered the French fur trapper Toussaint Charbonneau and his Shoshone wife Sacagawea, who played a crucial role as interpreters and guides for the expedition.
Scagewa, also known as Sacajawea, was a Shoshone woman who played a crucial role in the Lewis and Clark Expedition. When she met the Shoshone chief, Cameahwait, in 1805, she was likely around 16 years old and had recently given birth to her son, Jean Baptiste. This meeting was significant as it allowed her to facilitate communication and establish trade between the expedition and her native tribe.

When Lewis and Clark wintered at the present site of Bismarck, North Dakota, there they met Sacagawea and her husband in 1804. Toussaint Charbonneau was interviewed to interpret Hidatsa for the Lewis and Clark expedition, but Lewis and Clark (esp. Clark) were not overly impressed with him. However, Sacagawea his wife spoke Shoshone and Hidatsa, so they hired Charbonneau on November 4,1804 and he and Sacagawea moved into Fort Mandan a week later. Sacagawea was 16 or 17 at this time.

Lewis and Clark met indians
She was a Shoshone, had been kidnapped as a young girl, taken away from her family, and the Chief was her brother.
Lewis and Clark met Sacagawea in November 1804 while staying at Fort Mandan in what is now North Dakota. She was the wife of French-Canadian trader Toussaint Charbonneau and was hired as an interpreter for the expedition due to her knowledge of the Shoshone language and the region.
