The Constitution does briefly mention the Indians and Indian tribes.
Article I, Section 2. (later superceded by the 14th amendment) states that non-taxed Indians would not be counted as part of the population of the states used to determine Congressional representation.
Article I, Sec. 8 grants Congress the power to regulate trade "with the Indian Tribes."
These sections seem to imply that Native American tribes were seen as politically independent entities.

as I sit and think about your question, it comes to me that the constitution does not address any particular group.
