    Prior to Contact
    Before all of the contact with the people of the plains would roam around the prairies with the buffalo that they hunted. When they would hunt the buffalo and kill it, they wouldn't waste any of the buffalo. They would use every little peice of it wether it be the fur right down to the bone. Bones were the weapons, and meat was used to eat. When the people of the plains would go to hunt, they would travel in large groups of 50-100 people, just to be safe.
