The Pawnee Nation of Oklahoma (Pawnee Nation) has a long and flourishing history traversing over 700 years. Right off the bat in the eighteenth century, more than 60,000 persons from the Pawnee Tribe occupied the region along the North Platt River in Nebraska. The Tribe then, at that point, as it is currently, was made out of four particular groups: the Chaui “Great,” the Kitkehahki “Conservative,” the Pitahawirata “Tappage” and the Skidi “Wolf.”
