Coeur D' Alene Tribe

The modern Coeur d'Alene Tribe is the sum of uncounted centuries of untold generations. In the tribe's own ancient language, it is called Schitsu'umsh, meaning "Those who were found here" or "The discovered people". In this remains a land abundant in beauty and resources, a legacy of leadership, and a lineage that continues from the time immemorial. The current land of the Coeur d' Alene Tribe is now 344,990 acres where a majority of the 2500 enrolled tribal members reside. The Coeur d'Alenes are who they always were and who they will always be.
