Because they lived a nomadic lifestyle, all Crow belongings were lightweight and easily portable. When they camped all their food, clothing, bedding, weapons, tools and other items were brought into the tipi (ashi in Crow).
A warrior's shirt and leggings might be hung from a rope stretched across the inside of the tipi; a liner of buffalo hide or trade cloth, about 5 feet tall, went around the inside lower edge of the dwelling to keep out damp and draughts; buffalo robes were used as bedding (trade blankets came later); a fire was laid in the hearth in the middle of the floor; parfleche containers of dried meat, clothing, warrior regalia and other items would be hung up or set around the circumference; a man's pipe, tobacco and strike-a-light would be kept in decorated pouches opposite the entrance (the man's place).
The women would have their own places around the edge of the tipi, where they would have cradleboards for the infants, toys for older children, beadwork or deerskins and buffalo rawhide to be made into moccasins.
Many other objects would be found hanging from the tipi poles.

What is the term for land set aside by the US Government for Native Americans?
The term is reservations. These lands originally were set aside to virtually imprison the Indian and to once and for all, break their spirits.

For instance, Apaches who are mountain, desert Indians were shipped to Florida where it was flat and humid, causing the deaths of hundreds.
