What are several myths about Sacajawea?

Several myths about Sacajawea include the belief that she was the only woman on the Lewis and Clark expedition, when in fact there were other women present, including her husband’s sister. Another misconception is that she was a guide for the entire journey, whereas she primarily served as a translator and interpreter of local cultures. Additionally, her age at the time of the expedition is often overstated; she was around 16, not a seasoned adult. Lastly, some portrayals romanticize her role, overshadowing her contributions with stereotypes of the "noble savage."
