Most Native Americans of the Great Basin were nomadic hunter-gatherers, relying on the region's diverse ecosystems for sustenance. They primarily hunted small game, gathered wild plants, and fished in rivers and lakes. Tribes such as the Shoshone, Paiute, and Ute developed distinct cultures and adaptations to the arid environment, utilizing resources like sagebrush and pine nuts. Their social structures were often organized into small bands, reflecting their mobile lifestyle and reliance on seasonal resources.
