Pawnee Nation : ウィキペディア英語版
Pawnee people

The Pawnee are a federally recognized Midwestern Native American tribe of the Great Plains who traditionally occupied much of Nebraska and Kansas, and now currently reside in Oklahoma. They speak a Caddoan language and are known as the Pawnee nation. The tribe has 4 independent bands: the Chaui (Grand), Kitekhahki (Republican), Pitahawaritaw (Corn eaters) and Skidi (Wolf).〔"Preamble." ''Constitution of the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma.'' Revised 14 June 2008〕〔Hyde 22〕
Historically, the Pawnee were a semi-nomadic people who lived primarily as agriculturists or farmers. They lived in permanent Earth lodge villages while they grew squash, corn and other foods. They left the villages on annual Buffalo hunts while they used Tipis for traveling in migrational patterns. The Pawnee were the dominant tribe on the Central Plains by the early 19th century and numbered more than 10,000 people, Their numerous villages were located near the Platte, Missouri and Republican regions.〔Parks, Douglas R. ("Pawnee." ) ''Oklahoma Historical Society's Enyclopedia of Oklahoma History and Culture.'' (retrieved 14 Sept 2011)〕〔"Pawnee" ''Encyclopedia of Oklahoma History and Culture'' http://digital.library.okstate.edu/encyclopedia/entries/P/PA022.html, accessed 10 Dec 2012〕
Like other Plains Indians, warfare played a daily part in their way of life, especially after obtaining horses in which they used the aspect of mounted combat to defeat their enemies, although raiding on foot was still a widely used and preferred tactic. The Pawnee had escaped some of the exposure to European infectious diseases impacting other Native American tribes in the West. By 1863, disease had devastated their population to about 5800 people, but by 1868, endemic warfare with other tribes including the Lakota Sioux and Cheyenne to the north, and the Comanche, Arapaho and Kiowa tribes to the south decreased the population to about 1000.〔 In the early-1870s, due to pressure from westward expansion by European-Americans and the destruction of the buffalo herds, the Pawnee ceded most of their traditional hunting lands and territory to the U.S. Government, after this they were forcefully relocated alongside other tribes including the Osage, Otoe, Quapaw, Ponca and Kansa to Oklahoma in 1877. Disease, warfare, poverty and starvation had limited the tribe to only 650 Full-Blood people. Pawnee warriors enlisted in the United States Army as scouts to fight in various conflicts during the Indian Wars, in which they earned a reputation for being a well trained unit, especially in tracking down hostile enemy encampments. Today, most of the tribe live on distant reservation land in Oklahoma. There are around 4,200-5,000 full-blood enrolled Pawnee. Only 76 members can speak the language today.
==Government==
There are approximately 3200 enrolled Pawnee and mainly all reside in Oklahoma. Their tribal headquarters is in Pawnee, Oklahoma and their tribal jurisdictional area is in parts of Noble, Payne, and Pawnee counties. The tribal constitution establishes the government of the Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma. This government consists of the Nasharo Council, the Pawnee Business Council, and the Supreme Court. Enrollment into the tribe requires a minimum blood quantum.〔
