Shoshone-Bannock Tribes

"Shoshone-Bannock" is the name of a Native American tribal community of Idaho, located on the Fort Hall Indian Reservation. The Shoshone-Bannock tribe was formed by the merging together of Northern Shoshone and Bannock allies during the 19th century. The Shoshone-Bannock Indians are English speakers today, but the Shoshone and Bannock languages are also still spoken by some elders, and there are young Shoshone-Bannock people working to learn their ancestral languages again.
