Missouria
The Missouria or Missouri (in their own language, Niúachi, also spelled Niutachi) are a Native American tribe that originated in the Great Lakes region of United States before European contact.〔May, John D. ("Otoe-Missouria" ) ''Oklahoma Historical Society's Encyclopedia of Oklahoma History & Culture.'' 2009 (5 February 2015)〕 The tribe belongs to the Chiwere division of the Siouan language family, together with the Iowa and Otoe.
Historically, the tribe lived in bands near the mouth of the Grand River at its confluence with the Missouri River; the mouth of the Missouri at its confluence with the Mississippi River, and in present-day Saline County, Missouri. Since Indian removal, today they live primarily in Oklahoma. They are federally recognized as the Otoe-Missouria Tribe of Indians, based in Red Rock, Oklahoma.
==Name==
French colonists adapted a form of the Illinois language-name for the people: ''Wimihsoorita''. Their name means "One who has dugout canoes".〔McCafferty, Michael. 2004. ("Correction: Etymology of Missouri" ), ''American Speech,'' 79.1:32〕 In their own Siouan language, the Missouri call themselves ''Niúachi'', also spelled ''Niutachi'', meaning "People of the River Mouth."〔Pritzer, 337〕 The Osage called them the ''Waçux¢a,'' and the Quapaw called them the ''Wa-ju'-xd¢ǎ.''〔(Missouri Indian Tribes. ) ''Access Genealogy: Indian Tribal Records.'' (retrieved 23 February 2009)〕
The state of Missouri and the Missouri River are named for the tribe.
