Sacajawea (or Sacagawea) was born c. 1788. in an Agaidiku tribe of the Lemhi Shoshone in Idaho. In 1800, when she was about twelve, she and several other girls were kidnapped by a group of Hidatsa warriors during a battle. At about thirteen years of age, Sacagawea was taken as a wife by Toussaint Charbonneau, a French trapper living in the village, who had also taken another young Shoshone named Otter Woman as a wife. Lewis and Clark would winter at the present site of Bismarck, North Dakota, where they met her.

He didnt. Sacagawea was captured and sold or gambled away to Charbonneau.
Sacajawea, when she was little, was captured by a band of Minetaree warriors, and was taken as a slave to their people.
Sacagawea was never really captured, she volunteered to go with Lewis and Clark, to help find the new land. Well, other then that, her tribes name was the " Shoshone Tribe". I hope that I have answered your question. Thank you and have a wonderful day.

The Hidatsa attacked her tribe and captured Sacagawea.
They began a skirmish which lead to Sacagawea being captured.
Sacagawea belonged to the Shoshone tribe. ... During the 19th century, Hidatsa warriors often went on raiding parties like the one where they captured Sacagawea. Sacagawea lived with the Hidatsa for a few years, but, by 1804, she had been sold or gambled away to a French-Canadian trapper and trader, Toussaint Charbonne
Sacagawea did not have time for hobbies. She grew up doing chores for her Shoshone mother. She was captured by a rival tribe, the Hidatsa. She later became the property of French-Canadian fur trader Toussaint Charbonneau. Because Sacagawea was able to speak both Hidatsa and Shoshone, she was valuable to help Louis and Clark.
