Two Kettles

Two Kettles or “Two Boilings” (Oóhe Núŋpa) was a sub division of the Lakota Sioux tribe of Native Americans.

1. Wah-nee-wack-ata-o-ne-lar (aka Waniwacteonilla)
2. Oohe Noⁿpa
3. Ma Waqota

Before 1843 explorers give no reference to this subdivision. The band appeared to number 800 people or 60 to 100 lodges. They were varyingly claimed to live among other herds of buffalo or to live separate from other bands by the Cheyenne River and the Missouri River. They respected white traders and visitors and hunted skillfully. Early on they rarely engaged in warfare but later did so. Later still they signed a treaty agreeing not to attack others except in self-defense.
