Answer: There are two distinct and unconnected native groups in North America who have been given the English name "Blackfoot" or "Blackfeet".
The Blackfoot Lakota are today a very small tribe (perhaps between 1,000 and 2,000 people) of the Lakota or Teton Sioux, living in South Dakota. They call themselves siha sapa. Their language is naturally part of the Siouan family.
The Blackfoot confederacy of the far northern Plains (northern Montana, Saskatchewan and Alberta) consists of the Blood, Piegan and Blackfoot tribes, who speak an Algonquian language and call themselves Siksikawa or Niitsítapi. Today they number around 88,000 people.
