Umonhon: say it "Omaha". It means "against the current",
and briefly describes the history of the Native people who travelled
down the Ohio River to the Mississippi, and then
up the Missouri River first to the area near Nebraska's
largest city (Omaha), and then to the area near Macy
in northeast Nebraska.

Who Are the Omaha?

"Do not grieve. Misfortunes will happen to the wisest and best of men.
Death will come, always out of season.
It is the command of the Great Spirit, and all nations and people must obey.
What is past and what cannot be prevented should not be grieved for....
Misfortunes do not flourish particularly in our lives -- they grow everywhere."
Chief Big Elk, Omaha
