NOMADIC PEOPLE also known as nomads, are communities of people that move from one place to another, rather than settling down in one location. There are an estimated 30-40 million nomads in the world.[1] Many cultures have been traditionally nomadic, but traditional nomadic behavior is increasingly rare in industrialized countries. There are three kinds of nomads, hunter-gatherers, pastoral nomads, and peripatetic nomads.Nomadic hunter-gatherers have by far the longest-lived subsistence method in human history, following seasonally available wild plants and game. Pastoralists raise herds and move with them so as not to deplete pasture beyond recovery in any one area. Peripatetic nomads are more common in industrialized nations, traveling from one territory to another and offering a trade wherever they go.

Far away, tucked in a remote corner of the United States, is a place called Pine Ridge. Pine Ridge is an Indian Reservation in South Dakota, home to the Oglala-Lakota (Sioux), Native American Indians.
This reservation is home to approx 40,000 people, 35% of which are under 16 years of age. This reservation is approx 11,000 square miles (over 2 million acres), and sits in Bennett, Jackson and Shannon counties, fifty miles east of the Wyoming border.
In the past, before the white man arrived in the United States, the Lakota people lived on the land, moving from place to place along with the Buffalo migrations. This mighty beast gave these people everything they needed to be able to sustain themselves.
