Also known as the Osage, "A tribe in the [United States], which is mainly based in Osage County, Oklahoma, but can be found throughout America. At the height of their power [in the early] 17th century, the Osages were a dominant regional power, occupying much of present day Arkansas, Missouri, Kansas, and Oklahoma." "Today, the Osage Nation has 9,635 enrolled tribal members, with 4,994 living within [the state of Oklahoma]. They are headquartered in Pawhuska, Oklahoma and have jurisdiction in Osage County, Oklahoma. The tribe issues its own vehicle tags and operates its own housing authority. The Osage Nation owns a truck stop, a gas station, 19 smoke shops, and seven casinos. The Osage Tribal Museum in Pawhuska, the oldest tribally-owned museum in the country, documents their history." "Osage legends state that the tribe originally known called themselves Ni-U-Kon-Ska, which means meaning [Little Children] (or People) of the Middle Waters. However, by the late 17th century, the Osage were calling themselves Wah-Zha-Zhe." "The earliest record of European - Osage contact is a 1673 map by Jesuit priest and explorer Jacques Marquette. This map translated the Wah-Zha-Zhe name into Ouchage A few years after the Marquette expedition, French explorers discovered a Little Osage village and called it Ouazhigi. These early French translations of the tribe's name were the basis for the English name Osage." Info from wikipedia.
