"The Blackfoot Confederacy is the collective name of three First Nations in
Alberta and one Native American tribe in Montana.

"The Blackfoot Confederacy consists of the North Peigan (Aapatohsipiikanii),

the South Peigan (Aamsskaapipiikanii), the Kainai Nation (Blood), and
the Siksika
Nation ("Blackfoot") or more correctly Siksika ("Blackfoot people"). The
South
Peigan are located in Montana, and the other three are located in
Alberta. Together
they call themselves the Niitsitapii (the "Real People").

Many thanks Aleta, I'll bookmark that so I get their name right in future!

Were the Darwin Awards around then...  ;-)

Aleta

Cetainly a serious contender!!!
