Santee

Appearance

Tribe
The tribe that inspired this steed is located in Minnesota, Northern Iowa, and Eastern Dakotas. One of the three subdivisions of the Great Sioux Nation. Also known as the Dakota Sioux.

The Santee people were originally a woodland tribe, who hunted, fished and farmed. They are the easternmost subdivision of the Sioux. Today, a Dakota reservation exists in northern Nebraska. The name Santee derives from the word Isanti, which means “knife.” The name Minnesota also comes from the Santee words for “smoky water.” The states of North and South Dakota are named for this tribe.
