Not to justify what went on in those days, but remember, they were
considered savages in that society, something more than animals but only
just.

A very complicated subject.  At the time the constitution was written
most indians would not have been considered citizens.  Their only
significant mention in the constitution concerns regulation of commerce
where it's seen that individual tribes were considered in the same sense
as "foreign nations".  All have been considered citizens since 1924 but,
by that time, most were already considered citizens based on previous
legal actions.
