Name of a Native American Tribe that lived in the Kansas part of the Indian Terrioty?

Laura Ingalls Wilder (author of "Little House on the Prarie") mentions that her family was visited by a group of Native American warriors. The tribe lived in the Kansas part of the Indian terrioty. The tribe warriors wore skunk or varmit pelts as loin cloths.

The Native American Tribe you are refering to is the Osage Indian Tribe.





"the Ingalls family encounters a French-speaking Osage chief, Soldat du Chene. The Indian tribes who lived in the territory the Ingalls and other white settlers were occupying had decided to make war on the settlers. Soldat du Chene and his tribe came to plead with the other tribes not to kill the white people. He told the tribes that if they began to massacre the settlers, he and his strong Osage would fight them. This persuaded the other tribes to go away peacefully. Soldat du Chene thus saved the Ingalls family's lives."
