What was the culture of the Sioux Indians?

Mainly it's all about respect. Respect Mother Nature, Respect each other, Respect everything. Though many people think so Native Americans never had more than one God and they didn't "worship" anything. People think they worshiped the sun, but it really was just respecting and thanking. When any Native killed an animal they thanked it for its nourishment and didn't waste ANYTHING. There are also totems, smudging, my favorite ceremonies and much much more. I recommend that you look everything up on Google or something or you can look for a local sweat lodge or some sort of gathering to learn more. The people I know mostly learn about the Lakota (one of the 3 Sioux). So it really should not be that hard. You can watch Dances with Wolves to learn or in Barnes n Noble theres a whole shelf on Native Americans.
