  1. Western Apache

    Western Apache refers to the Apache peoples living today primarily in east central Arizona, in the United States. Most live within reservations. The Fort Apache, San Carlos, Yavapai-Apache, Tonto Apache, and the Fort McDowell Mohave-Apache Indian reservations are home to the majority of Western Apache and are the bases of their federally recognized tribes. In addition, there are numerous bands. The Western Apache bands call themselves Ndee, because of dialectical differences the Pinaleño/Pinal and Arivaipa/Aravaipa bands of the San Carlos Apache use the softer term Innee or Nnēē:. The various dialects of Western Apache are a form of Apachean, a branch of the Southern Athabaskan language family. The Navajo speak a related Apachean language, but the peoples separated several hundred years ago and are considered culturally distinct. Other indigenous peoples who are Athabaskan speakers are located in Alaska and Canada. The anthropologist Grenville Goodwin classified the Western Apache into five groups based on Apachean dialect and culture: ⁕Cibecue, ⁕Northern Tonto, ⁕Southern Tonto, ⁕San Carlos, and ⁕White Mountain.
