The conflict embraced fifteen encounters of varying magnitude that ranged across an extensive landscape encompassing parts of present-day Montana, Wyoming, Nebraska, and South Dakota...The two tribes involved in the Great Sioux War, the Teton Sioux, or Lakotas, and the Northern Cheyennes, while linguistically unrelated, nonetheless possessed cultural similarities that had influenced their parallel courses by the mid-1870s."), Table of Contents ("Chapter 10.
