Curriculum: History & Anthropology

Lesson plans from this section cover the history and culture of the Hidatsa tribe. The Hidatsa tribe lived in what is now the Knife River Indian Villages NHS and the surrounding areas.

It was prepared by members of the Mandan Hidatsa and Arikara Nation with intentions of providing educators a brief historical overview of change and continuity relative to these tribes.
