Best Answer

As a general statement these tribes / groups were known as "Tree Dwellers" by the plains natives. Meaning that these groups inhabited the forested (Treed) areas, and were normally agriculturally based groups. Specific names of the tribes in that area would exhaust the listing capabilities of this site (there were a LOT).
