I have to differ on the origin of Sacagawea. She was a Shoshone and was kidnapped in the Idaho area. She was kidnapped by the Mandan Hidatsa Sioux. The Shoshone traveled freely throught Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, Colorado ETC. From North Dakota to Idaho Sacagewea was truly a guide because she had traveled the route previously, after they reached the Rockies she was in virgin territory but she could converse with Nez Perce. Now Chief Joseph comes into the picture.
The Indians had many wars amongst themselves for territorial rights and probably killed as many of each other as the White Man ever did.
Best wishes, Bill
