Blackfoot Confederacy

The Blackfoot Indians of the United States and Canada were divided into four main groups from the three Blackfoot branches. The Siksika, Kainai, and the Piikani spoke a dialect of the Algonquian language family. Before the Blackfoot were placed on reservations in the latter half of the nineteenth century, they occupied a large territory which stretched from the North Saskatchewan River in Canada to the Missouri River in Montana. The trade, military, and kinship alliance held between the Sikiska, Kainai, and Piikani was referred to as the Blackfoot Confederacy. Later, in the early 1800s, the Tsuu T�ina or Sarcee First Nation would join this alliance.
