Cameahwait was Sacagawea's brother and a chief of the Shoshone. Sacagawea was kidnapped by the Hidatsa as a young girl and later sold to French fur-trapper Toussaint Charbonneau. Charbonneau and Sacagawea traveled with Lewis and Clark on their Expedition to the Pacific as guides. On this trip, Sacagawea was reunited with her brother, Cameahwait, whom she had not seen in years. He had thought she was dead. To thank Clark for bringing his sister to him, Cameahwait gave the Expedition members much-needed horses.
