Kutenai (Kootenay) Nation

The upper and lower branches of the Kutenai (Kootenay) are divided more or less equally between Canada and the United States. The Upper Kootenay are properly a British Columbia People, but throughout the first half of the 18th century, at least one band of Kootenay occupied southwestern Alberta, hunting buffalo. Archaeological evidence suggests that the Kootenay have occupied southwest Alberta for at least 2000 years.
