I've moved the following claim to the talk page until it can be better sourced/expandedclarified:

{{Blockquote|text=Maslow's idea may have been informed by his work with [[Blackfeet Nation]] through conversations with elders and inspiration from the shape and meaning of the Blackfoot [[tipi]], although Maslow never conceptualized his work as a pyramid. There has been no evidence that Maslow stole or borrowed ideas from the Blackfeet from his hierarchy of needs despite popular claims that Maslow misrepresented the Blackfoot worldview. The Blackfoot worldview places self-actualization as a basis for community-actualization and community-actualization as a basis for cultural perpetuity, the latter of which exists at the top of the tipi in Blackfoot philosophy.}}
