Her name had the sound of the country her father founded “Boston” we as a people usually give our children multiple names including a middle name.

Date of death

Recent scholarship — Our Story of Eagle Woman: Sacagawea: They Got It Wrong by the Sacagawea Project Board of the Mandan, Hidatsa, and Arikara Nation — proposes a death date of 1869. I'm very far from an expert and would not presume to edit the article, but could someone with more expertise assess whether this claim deserves to be mentioned? I note that the book has just been reviewed in the New York Review of Books, and the reviewer finds the claim plausible. This includes skepticism about the traditional evidence for the much earlier date of 1812. Clark's list from 1825–1826, e.g., is known to be wrong concerning other members of the expedition, including Charbonneau. Ishboyfay (talk) 14:35, 22 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]

'g' before 'a'

That is never pronounced as a soft 'g' in the English we are using right now.

The correct spelling of her name is Sacajawea. 142.205.202.71 (talk) 21:45, 17 October 2023 (UTC)[reply]
