The Big Sioux River begins at a pond in Roberts County, about a mile and a half north of Summit, and flows 419 miles south, through nine counties, emptying into the Missouri River at Sioux City. The river snakes through three of our five largest cities â Watertown, Brookings and Sioux Falls â making it the most heavily populated river basin in South Dakota.
Sioux means little snake, a name the tribe may have received from the Chippewa Indians. The Sioux Indians were a family-oriented, nomadic people who spoke the Dakota language and believed in Wakan Tanka, the one god. As nomads, the Sioux Indians roamed the Great Plains, following buffalo herds and using dogs to haul their belongings. Buffalo were the Sioux's main source of food and clothing.
