Hi Scott,

I don't think it's believed that either evolved from the other.  They are sister branches, along with Dakotan, of Mississippi Valley Siouan, or MVS.

                                                                                (evolved to: )

Missouri Valley                                 Mandan                               MVS                                      Southeastern

Dakotan                                               Winnebago/Chiwere                                                      Dhegiha



Hope this helps.

Rory

I was wondering if Dhegiha evolved from Chiwere or if Chiwere evolved from Dhegiha?
