== DemographicsNotas ==
Traditional [[Cheyenne]] spiritual culture, like most traditional [[Indigenous peoples|Indigenous]] spiritual ways, values the peoples' connection to their landbase, and sees the land itself, as well as special sites like [[Bear Butte]], as sacred. Numerous Cheyenne work as foresters and fire fighters. This spiritual perspective is evident in traditional communities like Lame Deer and Birney and when the 2006 vote on development coal and [[coalbed methane]] on the reservation split along modernist vs traditional lines.<ref>{{Cita novas|title=Northern Cheyenne voters split on resource development |url=http://billingsgazette.com/news/state-and-regional/montana/northern-cheyenne-voters-split-on-resource-development/article_c165f28d-7f1a-593a-8a8d-9e52f25c94e1.html |accessdate=17 January 2011|newspaper=billingsgazette.com|date=7 November 2006}}</ref>{{full short|date=April 2019}}
A historical buffalo jump, burial sites of Cheyenne chiefs and spiritual leaders, the site of [[Custer]]'s last camp before the [[Battle of the Little Bighorn]], the Cheyenne Indian Museum, Ten Bears Gallery, [[St. Labre Indian Catholic High School|St. Labre Indian School]], and the Ashland [[Powwow]] are sites of special interest in the Ashland area.
The Northern Cheyenne are related to the [[Southern Cheyenne]], who are located in [[Oklahoma]]. Following the [[Black Hills War]] and earlier conflicts in [[Colorado]] (see [[Sand Creek Massacre]] and [[Battle of Washita River|Washita Massacre]]), the Northern Cheyenne were forcibly moved to Oklahoma and restricted to lands of their southern relatives. Unable to acclimate swiftly to the heat of western Oklahoma ([[Indian Territory]] at the time), having to grow their food instead of hunting or gathering as were their ways, and the brutal conditions in the barracks where they were held, the northerners quickly began dying. In desperation, a small band left the reservation and headed north in 1878, an odyssey that came to be known as the [[Northern Cheyenne Exodus]].
The Northern Cheyenne briefly settled around [[Fort Keogh]] ([[Miles City, Montana]]). In the early 1880s, many families began to migrate south to the [[Tongue River (Montana)|Tongue River]] watershed area and established homesteads in the northern edge of the [[Powder River Basin]], which they considered their natural home. The Northern Cheyenne were allies of the [[Lakota people|Lakota]] in the [[Black Hills War]] of 1876–1877.
The United States government established the Tongue River Indian Reservation, which consisted of {{convert|371200|acre|km2}} of land, under the executive order given by President [[Chester A. Arthur]] on November 16, 1884 The boundaries originally did not include the Cheyenne who had homesteaded further east near the Tongue River, therefore those people who had were helped by the St. Labre Catholic Mission. This changed though when on March 19, 1900, [[William McKinley|President William McKinley]] extended the reservation to the west bank of the Tongue River, for a total of {{convert|444157|acre|km2}}. Those Cheyenne who had homesteaded east of the Tongue River were relocated to reservation lands west of the river.<ref>Page 30, ''We, the Northern Cheyenne People'', accessed September 20, 2009</ref>
