 == History  ==
+The ancestral homeland of the Shoshone was in the Mountain&nbsp;West.&nbsp;&nbsp;At an early point in history the tribe sub divided into:The Eastern Shoshone, Northern Shoshone and the Southern Shoshone.&nbsp;&nbsp;The Eastern Shoshone lived near Grand Teton and Wind River Mountains. The Northern Shoshone ranged through southern Idaho, eastern Oregon and northern Nevada. The Southern Shoshone lived in Nevada, Wyoming and Utah.
+The tribes early contact with non-Indians included the Lewis and Clark Expedition, Jedediah Smith and fur traders and trapers at the Rocky Mountain rendezvous.&nbsp;The first rendezvous was promoted by Jedediah Smith in 1825.&nbsp; A prominent Shoshone: Sacajawea joined the Lewis and Clark Expedition-1803-06
+In 1841 immigrants began moving to the west and northwest by way of the Oregon and California trails. Both of these trails cut through the homeland of the Shoshoni and Bannock tribes. Problems occured as the resourses of the area were drained by many immigrants going west. These trails provided a "hightway" for over twenty years serving the fourty-niners and silver seekers headed to California, Nevada and the northwest.
+A military campaign of&nbsp;300 soldiers&nbsp;led by Colonel Patrick Conner in January of 1863, killed 224 Indians this became known as the Bear river Massacre.
+The Union Pacific and Central Pacific Railroad completed their lines and came together at Promontory Point, Utah in 1869.

 The term or designation of Shoshone Indians is a very broad categorization of several bands and/or federally recognized tribes within the group so named. For the most part, they have historically lived in the Great Basin area, and have ranged from Oregon and Idaho on the north to Arizona and southern California on the south, and from Wyoming on the east to northern California on the west. They were often referred to as the Snakes. Some of the tribes, bands, or groups of Shoshone, with their colonies or reservations, include:
 *Death Valley Shoshone -- see [[Timbisha Shoshone Indians|Timbisha Shoshone]]<br>
