The Whitmans selecting a location among the Cayuse tribe instead of the Nez Perce(who asked them to come) shows that the Whitamns understood the Native Americans.

True or false

False. The Whitmans selecting a location among the Cayuse tribe instead of the Nez Perce, who asked them to come, was not necessarily a sign that they understood the Native Americans. This decision was likely influenced by various factors such as strategic considerations, personal relationships, and availability of resources.
