What does yattahey mean in Native American?
it's a good day to die
Largest and most powerful tribe of the Plains Indians?
The Lakota Tribe were the most powerful of the plains Native American groups. They settled in present-day North and South Dakota.
American culture today is more diverse or less diverse than it was when only pre Columbian Native Americans lived in North America?
I would guess that American culture is more diverse today, as at least some of the Native populations have retained their culture to this day and there are local enclaves of the culture of probably every country in the world also present in the US today.
Was Mt McKinley named after President McKinley?
Yes, it was, although there was quite an argument about it that continues to this day. No one in the state of Alaska calls it "Mt. McKinley", they call it by it's Native American name, "Denali".
How many Native American death sentences did US President Lincoln commute when the Great Sioux Uprising was ended in 1862?
US President Lincoln commuted the death sentences of 260 Native Americans who had been captured during the Great Sioux Uprising of 1862. Many other Native Americans were killed in the conflict. On one day alone, the largest mass execution of Native Americans took place in 1862. Thirty eight Native Americans were hanged on December 26, 1862.
