The Teton Sioux by Nancy Bonvillain

The Teton Sioux or "plains dwellers" resided in what is now North and South Dakota. They were well known for their trade with local tribes.

She has carried out fieldwork in the Navajo Nation in Arizona and extensive linguistic fieldwork at the Akwesasne Mohawk Reserve in Ontario/Quebec, beginning in 1969. There she began the efforts to develop materials for language maintenance programs, completing her dissertation (A Grammar of Akwesasne Mohawk) and working with community members on dictionaries and conversations.
