The Cheyenne are a Native American nation of the Great Plains. The Cheyenne nation is composed of three united tribes, the Masikota [no definite translation], the Só'taa'e (more commonly as Sutai) [no definite translation] and the Tsé-tsêhéstâhese (singular: Tsêhéstáno; more commonly as the Tsitsistas), which translates to "Like Hearted People". The name Cheyenne itself derives from Dakota Sioux Šahíyena, meaning "little Šahíya". Though the identity of the Šahíya are not known, many Great Plains tribes assume it means Cree or some other people that spoke an Algonquian language related to the Cree and the Cheyenne. However, the common folk etymology for "Cheyenne" is "bit like the [people of an] alien speech" (literally, "little red-talker").
