Atribal name is a name of anethnictribe —usually of ancient origin, which represented itsself-identity.
Studies ofNative American tribal names show that most had an original meaning comparable to "human," "people" "us"—the "tribal" name for itself was often the localized ethnic self-perception of the general word for "human being."
