In legal terms, nobility is related to aristocracy. The US Government allowing the Sioux to live on certain lands is not that.
When you link rights and priviledge to heredity - you have established a nobility - a priviledged class...
I am surprised that more people aren't offended by that.
Then the US Constitution is invalid on the face of it, as those ‘rights and privilege [sic]’ you mention were originally intended only for free white males (a consequence of heredity if ever there was one).
But how is a guarantee that your property can’t be taken from you without due process a privilege of nobility? What the US did with the treaty under discussion was exactly that - they were recognizing that the Sioux had a legitimate claim to ownership of the Black Hills. It’s really no different that the US recognizing the sovereignty of Israel or South Sudan.
I don’t think your serious with this ‘nobility’ stuff.
