The Native American groups known to English language-speakers as Arapaho, Crow, Lahota, and Shoshone are the first known settlers of what is now Wyoming. The first known European settlers were Spanish-speakers in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries, French-speakers in the eighteenth century, and English-speakers by the early nineteenth century.
