Timpanog
The Timpanog (also "Utah" and rarely "Snake") Indians are a tribe of the Shoshone who historically inhabited a vast portion of Utah. Today, they live on the Uinta Valley Reservation. They have also been referred to in the past as the "''Timpiavats''."
==Post contact history==
Historically, the Timpanog lived on fish, wild game, and the seeds of wild plants. It is likely that the Timpanogos' first contact with anyone of European descent was with the Spanish Franciscan missionaries during what is now known as the Dominguez–Escalante Expedition of 1776.
In 1847 the Timpanog numbered approx. 70,000. Their numbers had been dwindling by the rise of competing bands of Shoshone raiders since the early-19th century and were diminished further by small pox and other diseases introduced by the influx of American settlers, which culminated with a devastating measles epidemic in the early 1850s. The Timpanog numbered only about 1,200 when conflict with the Latter-day Saints, who had then come out of the United States and settled in their territory, resulted in the Walker War. The war was one of many conflicts with the Mormon militia that caused an even further decline in the tribe's population.
