Which tribe is the greatest Native American tribe?

Answer 1

A very tough and loaded question that can not be answered without disclosing a wide variety of cultural bias. A few personal contenders include: * The Sioux, Cheyenne and the Arapahoe who were masters of the Bison and who proved to be the masters of the Seventh Cavalry. * The Cherokee who were masters of assimilation and the first to name a woman as the principal chief, Wilma Mankiller from 1985 to 1995. * The Commanche who were masters of the horse and ranger tactics. * The Nez Perce who were masters of persistence, animal husbandry and the creators of the Appaloosa. * The Odana who mastered the skywalking trade of steel beam construction. * The Apache who mastered the desert environment. * The Seminole who mastered the swamp environment. * The Navajo Code Talker's of the USMC. * The Pueblo Indians of New Mexico who with the help of the Santa Fe Railroad mastered the American tourist.
