Blackfoot Confederacy
The Blackfoot Confederacy, Niitsitapi or Siksikaitsitapi is a historic collective name for linguistically related groups that make up the Blackfoot or Blackfeet people: The Siksika, the Kainai or Kainah, and two sections of the Piikani, the Northern Piikani and the Southern Piikani. Broader definitions include groups, like the Tsúùtínà and A'aninin, spoke quite different languages but allied or joined with the Blackfoot Confederacy as well.
