Who made the tipis and where?

Many of the Native American tribes of the Great Plains used tipis. (list of nomadic plains tribes from wikipedia: Blackfoot, Arapaho, Assiniboine, Cheyenne, Comanche, Crow, Gros Venture, Kiowa, Lakota, Lipan, Plains Apache (or Kiowa Apache), Plains Cree, Sarsi, Sioux, Shoshone, and Tonkawa.) They were the ideal shelter for the nomadic lifestyle of the Plains Tribes, as tipis are durable, portable, and can be dissassembled, moved and reconstructed quickly.


How is the Subarctic Cree and the Plains Cree tribe similar?

subarctic cree might be compared and much like inuit or athabaskans in that they had a more cold climate to adapt to. Their foods, shelter materials, and clothing would differ a little bit from the plains cree. Plains cree followed buffalo for example, whereas subarctic cree might have hunted elk, moose, raindeer. there is something romantic it seems to me, about people who lived that far north, it must have taken a lot of faaith on one's part, to decide to identify and weather the life of that part of the continent. Rivers that flow north, a different and unique view of stars in the night sky, the colors of the aurora borealis, familes were closer, tightly knight communnities, reliance upon one another for survival. friendships that last a lifetime were the rule. faith becomes strong in a world of endurance. These are things we all crave. Maybe the things we came to this earth seeking. I am a Rocky Boy Chippewa-Cree be good. Native Patrol

What is the difference between Plains Cree and Woodlands Cree Indians?

the plains cree had prairie land whereas the woodlands cree lived in a more lively habitat. The Plains Cree used to live in tepees and hunted mainly buffalo, much like the other neighboring plains nations; with the advent of the horse these Plains cultures flourished. Woodlands Cree lived in wigwams (conical structures) similar to the plains, but hunted moose, deer and fished. Woodland Cree commuted the rivers in canoes as a means of transport. There are also dialect differences with some Woodlands and Plains Cree. Also, the dialect of "Y" is used by the Plains Cree and some Woodlands Cree use the "TH" dialect. The Plains Cree also tend to speak in a more sedate (slower) manner and the northern Woodlands speak faster.
