Housing
They lived in buffalo-hide tipis. They moved a lot to follow the herds of buffalo. The tipi was designed to set up and take down quickly! Since, they were always moving.

Diet/Food
Men would hunt bison. Also, men would catch armadillos, skunks, lizards, rats, frogs, and grasshoppers. On the other hand, women would gather wild fruits, seeds, nuts, berries, roots, plums, pecans, onions, and grapes.
