Lewis and Clark . Native Americans . Arikara Indians | PBS Sometime during the 1780s, the Arikara Indians suffered through the first in a series of brutal smallpox epidemics. Over the years, the disease savaged the original populace of nearly 30,000, so much so that by October 1804 and the arrival of Lewis and Clark, only a small percentage of the original population remained.
