Transportation
The Blackfoot people's transportation consisted of a few different methods. As Blackfoot people were not
a coastal tribe, they had to build rafts when they crossed rivers. The tribe would travel using dogs that
pulled a sort of dragging sled called a travois. They would migrate overland with the travois carrying their
belongings. After horses were introduced to the United States by colonists from Europe, the Blackfoot tribe
adopted the horses for travel and warfare and became more nomadic in their lifestyle.
