I don’t know if this is the right sub. I am making a series of videos on the history of the Lakota Sioux, and I need some better sources for the history of them before the horses were introduced. More specifically, on where they were and what they were doing before they were in the Great Plains region. Thank you
Pekka Hämäläinen just published Lakota America last year. I have not read it, so I cannot give a full endorsement, but I have read his previous work Comanche Empire and it is well researched and fascinating.
