SHOSHONE (Shoshoni) Snake Bannock Between about 1680 and1850, nomadic horse tribes moved through Idaho, Eastern Washington, Eastern Oregon, Utah, Nevada, & Northeastern California. Various tribes make up the Shoshone Nation: Paiute, Bannock, Snake, Ute, and Comanche. Except for the Paiute, they were not permanent residents of Oregon. The Snake and Bannock traveled into the area of present-day Oregon. They did evidently came as far north and west as present-day The Dalles, Oregon to trade.
