Best Answer

Sioux is not the name of a tribe but of a group of related tribes.

The westernmost group are termed Lakota or Teton Sioux, consisting of the Hunkpapa, Oglala, Brule, Minneconjou, Two Kettle, No Bows and Blackfoot Sioux tribes, who all lived west of the Missouri river in North and South Dakota, often pushing further west into eastern Montana and Wyoming.

The central group are called Yankton or Nakota Sioux, consisting of the Yankton and Yanktonai tribes of south-eastern South Dakota.

The most easterly group were the Dakota Sioux, consisting of the Mdewakanton, Wahpekute, Wahpeton and Sisseton tribes of south-west Wisconsin and the far eastern portions of South Dakota.
