Sacagawea was a Lemhi Shoshone woman who traveled with the Lewis and Clark Expedition in 1805-1806. She served as an interpreter, guide, and negotiator, helping the expedition navigate the Rocky Mountains and establish relations with Native American tribes. Sacagawea's presence was crucial to the success of the expedition and she remains a significant figure in American history.
Lewis and Clark met Sacagawea in November 1804 while staying at Fort Mandan in what is now North Dakota. She was the wife of French-Canadian trader Toussaint Charbonneau and was hired as an interpreter for the expedition due to her knowledge of the Shoshone language and the region.
When Lewis and Clark wintered at the present site of Bismarck, North Dakota, there they met Sacagawea and her husband in 1804. Toussaint Charbonneau was interviewed to interpret Hidatsa for the Lewis and Clark expedition, but Lewis and Clark (esp. Clark) were not overly impressed with him. However, Sacagawea his wife spoke Shoshone and Hidatsa, so they hired Charbonneau on November 4, and he and Sacagawea moved into Fort Mandan a week later. Sacagawea was 16 or 17 at this time.
