Sacajawea, a Shoshone woman, is best known for her role as a guide and interpreter for the Lewis and Clark Expedition (1804-1806). Her accomplishments include successfully navigating the difficult terrain of the American West, aiding in communication with Native American tribes, and demonstrating crucial survival skills that helped the expedition. She also contributed to the expedition's success by finding edible plants and serving as a symbol of peace, as her presence with a child signaled non-hostility to indigenous groups. Additionally, her legacy includes inspiring future generations of Native American women and explorers.
