Panati

Panati is a name of the Bannock people, whose homeland included the Snake River Plain and the mountains of the northern Great Basin. Their language was related to Northern Paiute, and their history became closely intertwined with that of neighbouring Shoshone communities. From the eighteenth century, mounted Bannock and Shoshone groups travelled together across a wide country, reaching the bison grounds beyond the mountains as well as the river valleys and gathering places nearer home.
