Ah, the Lakota Tribe were resourceful and skilled people, using tools like knives, axes, and scrapers made from stone, bone, and wood for hunting and daily tasks. Their weapons included bows and arrows, spears, clubs, and shields for protection and hunting game. It's truly amazing how they used what nature provided to thrive in their environment.

The Lakota Tribe historically used a variety of tools and weapons for hunting, warfare, and everyday tasks. Common tools included knives, axes, scrapers, and awls made from bone, antler, or stone. Weapons included bows and arrows, spears, clubs, and later on, firearms obtained through trade with European settlers. The use of horses also greatly enhanced the mobility and effectiveness of their hunting and warfare strategies.

Before contact with white Americans the many tribes of the Lakota, Nakota and Dakota used whatever was available in their own locality to make their tools. These included hide scrapers from buffalo bone, hammers (for meat and berries) from stone and wood, arrow-straighteners from buffalo bone, arrow smoothers from sandstone blocks, awls for sewing from bone splinters, knives of sharp flint or chert stone and so on.

From the very first contact with white people, metal tools were a very common trade item. These included axes, knives, files, saws, hammers, sheet metal and many other items.

The earlier bone hide scrapers were replaced with a metal blade attached to a wood or bone handle; metal awls replaced bone ones; metal trade knives replaced those of flint or chert. Stone hammers continued to be used for pounding meat and berries and arrows continued to be prepared using stone tools, but in general metal goods took over from the original types.

The Lakota used bows and arrows, spears, war clubs, and buffalo-hide shields. Hunters also used snares, and when Lakota or Dakota men hunted buffalo, they often set controlled fires to herd the animals into traps or over cliffs.
