"The nomads" were not a tribe; the Plains culture consisted entirely of nomadic tribes who constantly moved about to follow the buffalo herds. The purely Plains tribes who used only the tipi-style tent were:

  • The Blackfoot and their allies (Blood, Pikuni, Blackfoot, Sarsi)
  • Atsina (also known as Gros Ventres or Big Bellies)
  • Plains Cree
  • Assiniboin
  • Crow
  • Plains Ojibwe
  • Lakota
  • Cheyenne
  • Arapaho
  • Kiowa
  • Kiowa-Apache
  • Comanche

Other tribes on the margins of the Plains region occasionally used the tipi for hunting but had other more permanent dwellings for most of the year.
