How did the plains Indians live?

Answer 1

There have been plains Indians nearly as long as there have been plains. However, in the context of an historical viable entity they were pretty much done in by the 1880's. Remnants of many of the tribes still exist in the southwestern U.S.

Answer 2

As true Plains nomads the tribes you mean lived from the introduction of the horse (the precise date varied from tribe to tribe) until the imposition of reservations, which again varied from tribe to tribe.

For example, it is estimated that the southern Plains tribes acquired horses soon after 1680 and they were restricted to reservations by 1867. On the far northern Plains the Blackfoot tribes did not acquire horses until after 1730 but were not effectively organised on reservations until 1883.

It is not generally realised that white people were directly responsible for both the creation of the Plains culture (by introducing horses) and for effectively destroying it (by exterminating the buffalo and imposing the reservation system).

Answer 3

The Native American tribes that lived on the American plains were a vibrant group of people who followed the buffalo herds, hunted, and took care of the land that they lived on. The culture they created was based on the buffalo and their relationship with the land.
