The Lakota are a band of the Sioux tribe. Specifically, this site is geared towards CRST members as it is run by a CRST (Cheyenne River Sioux Tribe) member named Tashnaheca. The spelling of Lakhota with an “h” is to emphasize the pronunciation of Lakota. The Lakota language is a dialect of the Sioux Language.
