Several American Indians occupied the territories that include the present-day Nebraska. The Arapaho, Arikara, Pawnee, The Kiowa once occupied western Nebraska, the Cheyenne included western Nebraska, after the Comanche who had formerly lived in the territory had moved south toward Texas. The Great Sioux Nation and the Lakota located to the north and west. Since then I believe most if not all native American tribes have moved out of the state of Nebraska.
