The Cheyenne spoke Algonquian (a link to the Lenni-Lenape), and originally lived in the region of the Great Lakes in what is now Minnesota. The name they called themselves was “Tsistsistas”, which means “beautiful people”. It was the Sioux who named them “Cheyenne”, meaning “red talkers”, or “people of a different speech”, because the Algonquian language was foreign to the ears of the people who spoke the Siouan dialects….Cheyenne women were famous for their chastity, and they were sought after as wives only if their behavior had been proper and virtuous. Relationships before marriage was a major taboo, and this made courtship a long, slow and careful process which often took years before marriage was actually discussed. If the woman looked favorably on the man’s shy overtures, and if they actually reached the point of talking to each other, both families were immediately consulted.
