The Cheyenne tribes traditionally lived in tipis, which were portable dwellings made from wooden poles covered with buffalo hides or canvas. The structure was designed to be easily assembled and disassembled, allowing for mobility as they followed buffalo herds. The buffalo hides provided insulation and protection from the elements, making the tipis suitable for the Plains environment.
