How was bozeman named?
Bozeman was named after John Bozeman who esteblished the Bozeman Trail which was an overland route connecting the gold rush territory of Montana to the Oregon Trail. The overland Bozeman Trail followed many north-south trails that American Indians had used since prehistoric time to travel through Powder River country.

But there was a major drawback - the trail passed directly through American Indian territory occupied by the Shoshone, Arapaho, and Lakota nations.
