The Name Game
"The tribe Absaroke, which this steed is based on, is located in the Western U.S. at the foothills of the Rocky Mountains in present-day Montana. Their name is derived from the language of their sister tribe, the Hidatsa, and means “people of the large-beaked bird.” The Absaroke are more commonly known as the Crow Nation.

''Absaroke used horses to hunt buffalo and did not farm other than to raise tobacco. They cultivated two kinds of tobacco—medicine tobacco used in ceremonies and everyday tobacco. In the 19th Century, the Crow allied with the United States and fought on the side of the U.S. in various conflicts against the Cheyenne, Arapahos, and Sioux. Today, the Crow Nation has the largest reservation in the state of Montana, 1.5 million acres."''
