Itscheabine

Itscheabine is a name recorded for a division of the Assiniboine, a people of the northern plains. Early nineteenth-century accounts also call this group the Gens des Filles. Assiniboine bands ranged across a broad country of grasslands and river valleys, maintaining distinct communities within a larger people. Their name and the names of their bands record social ties in a landscape where movement across the plains was part of life.
