Plains Indians or Indigenous peoples of the Great Plains and Canadian Prairies are Native American tribes with similar cultures in the Interior Plains, which include the Great Plains and the Canadian Prairies, between the Rocky Mountains and the Mississippi River. The landscape is mostly flat grasslands and plains.

The natives were often on the move (nomadic), used horses, and hunted mainly bison. They have become part of popular culture and were one of the last Natives to be taken over. The Plains Indians are the Native group that has become a stereotype for Native Americans in literature and art.
