* The first of the First Nation peoples were the Arikara. * The following Native American Tribes are also associated with Nebraska: * Arapahoe * Sioux * Oto * Omaha * Pawnee * Ponca * Cheyenne * Pawnee.
That's a strange question and in many ways Pawnee men were not unique. If you really look hard you can find some unique elements to apply to Pawnee men, but the same statements can also be applied to the men of any other native American tribe, which cancels out its uniqueness:only Pawnee men (and women, and children) spoke the Pawnee languagePawnee men often cut their hair in a strip front to back, plucking hair from the sides of the head and painting the bare parts red (but the Osage did exactly the same thing). A website claiming that the Pawnee warrior hairstyle was unique is very much mistaken and a typical example of false, misleading or incorrect information provided by many websites. In fact the Pawnee word for the warrior's hairstyle means "like the Osage".Pawnee men wore the seams of their leggings down the front of the leg (but so did the Kansas and others)Pawnee men called themselves Chahiksichahiks, meaning "men of men." Many other tribes used different terms with the same or similar meaning.Pawnee men wore turbans of decorated otter skin to indicate rank, instead of feather heddresses - but so did the Iowas, Missouri and others.See links below for images of Pawnee and Osage warrior's hair:
They didn't "get along" with each other and certainly resented any other tribes competing for the same natural resources.The marginally Plains tribes such as the Mandan, Hidatsa, Arikara, Omaha, Kansa, Pawnee and Missouri often left their permanent villages to hunt buffalo, when they would be attacked by the Lakota or Cheyenne. These marginal tribes were forced to rely more and more on their own agriculture as a result.Some Plains groups had friends and allies away from the Plains; the Crow were usually friends with the Nez Perce, but dealings between the two tribes were infrequent and difficult.
The Cherokee's were one of the few (at the time) to fight the treaties and land takings through US Courts.
The Iroquois
did differ
Being the most numerous nation on the plains, the Lakota Sioux dominated the other tribes. Their allies were the Cheyenne, Arapahoe, and Blackfoot. Their main adversaries were the Crows, and Arikara, and Pawnee.
As a broad stroke answer: The Pawnee lived like most other agricultural hunter tribes in North America. They grew crops and hunted local game for food as well as clothing and maintained a harmony with the environment in which they lived.
Occasionally different Chinook groups would fight wars against each other, or against other Northwest Coastal tribes.
The Mandans, Hidatsas and Arikaras are the most well-known earth lodge people but many other tribes also used that type of dwelling: the eastern Dakota (the Wahpekute and their relatives), Pawnee, Oto, Missouri, Omaha, Kansa (Kaw) and Ponca and a few others. Pawnee earth lodges were huge and could house 30 to 50 people.

i love johnny oh Aztec conquered by spy and Inca slowly.
The Pawnee are villains in Dances With Wolves because every Western needs bad Indians, even one about good Indians. Why pick on the Pawnee? First, it is Hollywood tradition (see Little Big Man and Centennial), and secondly, in today's culture we celebrate noble Native American resistance to the evil white man; the Pawnee never went to war against the United States, and in fact provided the famous Pawnee Scouts to the army in their wars with other Plains tribes. This puts them on the wrong side of history as seen through modern America's PC ideology, and thus fair game to be the bad guys.
I think the Cherokee tribe is unique from the other tribes was that they spoke different language. Also, that the ABC was born there.
