These [[Chippewa Indians|Chippewa]] People have lived in the Montana region for as long as 1,500 years. Tribal Prophecy led their leaders to migrate west, for they knew their future involved an event they had no choice but to take very seriously. In the early 17th century, the whites (the French) made contact with the Chippewas who lived east of Lake Superior. They named the eastern Lake Superior Chippewas the [[Saulteaux]]. In French, Saulteaux means '''People of the Falls'''. | These [[Chippewa Indians|Chippewa]] People have lived in the Montana region for as long as 1,500 years.
