What Is the Crow Tribe?
The Crow tribe, otherwise known as the Crow Nation or Absaroka, is a tribe of Native Americans that historically lived in the Yellowstone River valley. In modern times, the tribe moved to a reservation south of Billings, Montana, where it is the fifth-largest Native American reservation in the United States (US). Some experts argue that the Crow tribe was originally from the area around the headwaters of the Mississippi River in Minnesota, or possibly from Wisconsin, while other academics believe that the tribe came from the Winnipeg area of Manitoba. The Crow tribe was once part of the Hidatsa tribe, and later split into a distinct group.
