The Shoshone Tribesmen are a Native American tribe that traditionally lived in the Great Basin region of the United States. They are also known as the Utes, which is a shortened form of their original name, Nuche, which means 'the people.' The Shoshone Tribesmen were historically nomadic hunter-gatherers who relied on the resources of the land to sustain themselves. They were also known for their intricate basket weaving and pottery making. Today, the Shoshone Tribesmen are federally recognized and have several reservations in the western United States.
