Many cultures migrated from one place ot another in their history. The Goths, Franks, Vandals, Huns, etc. are relatively well known. Although it isn't often considered, the american indian peoples migrated quite extensively prior to European arrival, the main exception being the California tribeltes. Here are three major american indian peoples whose migration histories I've heard and studied.

The Ojibway indians moved from their homeland along the Atlantic Ocean near Maine, and traveled to the upper great lakes region at the urging of 7 prophets. The journey began sometime around 900 ad, and arrived near Niagra falls around1100 ad. Sometime between 1200 and 1400 they arrived in the areas they inhabited when the French arrrived. [the Potowatomi and Ottowa were part of this migration as well]

The Iroqouis' ancestoral tribe, probibly the same ancestoral tribe the Cherokee and Huron had, lived near the mouth of the Ohio River. They split up and went on two seperate migrations; Hurons and Iroquois going northward, the Cherokee going south. The Cherokee arrived in the "cherokee lands" sometime between 1300 ad and 1500 ad. The Iriqouis path was a little less straight forward and involved enlsavement by and war against the Adorondaks before arriving in up state New York: the Huron split off sometime before the Iriquois arrival in the New York.

The Cheyenne originally lived along the north coast of Lake Superior and upper Ontario. They left their homeland sometime between 1380 ad and 1480 ad and ventured south and west until arriving on the plains sometime around 1680 ad. The tribe slowly grew and became the Cheyenne during the 18th century while before the tribe shared many chachteristics, but lacked some of the aspects of later Cheyenne culture.
