Talk:Snake Indians

Shoshone?
I believe that Sacagawea has been referred to as a Snake Indian (or it is said that she spoke Snake, per this: Sacagawea). Did the term "Snake Indian" per this article include the Shoshone or this a completely separate usage? Should the first paragraph of the Shoshone article have the link go to this article instead of Snake (disambiguation) (which only mentions the Shoshone)?Katr67 (talk) 22:48, 29 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Yes. The "Snake" people were Western Shoshone, of whom both the Paiute & Bannock people were a part.  The Snake River was a boundary of their territory.  Properly this article should be merged with & redirect to Western Shoshone.
