Encyclopedic overview
The Osage Nation (/ˈoʊseɪdʒ/ OH-sayj) (Osage: 𐓏𐓘𐓻𐓘𐓻𐓟 𐓁𐓣𐓤𐓘𐓯𐓣, lit. 'People of the Middle Waters') is a federally recognized Native American tribe in Oklahoma.
They are an Indigenous people of the Great Plains historically from the Midwestern United States. The tribe began in the Ohio and Mississippi river valleys around 1620 along with other groups of its language family, then migrated west in the 17th century due to Iroquois incursions.
