Native Americans Today H Great Plains Indians used a variety of materials for their arts and crafts. They shaped bows and arrows from wood and carved elegant pipes from stone. Yet perhaps their most valuable resource for creating tools and other objects was the bison. From bison skin they crafted tipi coverings, shields, travois platforms, parfleches, blankets, and clothingâeither in rawhide form or softened into leather. They made thread and rope from bison hair and sinews, and fashioned various tools from the bones. They made rattles and other ceremonial objects from the hooves, horns, and skulls. Great Plains women mastered the art of preparing hides. They stretched the skins on frames or on pegs in the ground and scraped away the flesh. They then worked the rawhide to an even thickness. To soften the hide into leather, they applied to it a mixture of ashes, bison fat and brains, and various plants, and then soaked it in water. Sometimes hair was left on the hides for warmth.

Canoes made by Kutchin peoples had flat bottoms and nearly straight sides. Beothuk canoes had sides that curved up and met at a point in the middle as well as at the ends, giving them the shape of a shallow W when viewed from the side. Some tribes used the more plentiful spruce bark for their canoes. To propel their boats, Subarctic peoples used wooden paddles. I Subarctic peoples made trousers, leggings, shirts, dresses, capes, robes, headbands, mittens, and moccasins from the skin and fur of mammals, especially caribou and moose. Feathers, seeds, shells, and quills were used to decorate clothes and for jewelry. Some peoples colored their faces with red ochre and black lead or with tattoos.

Extractions: Creation stories teach that Native Americans have been where they are since the world was created. It is also thought that First Americans migrated from Siberia over the Bering Strait about 14,000 years ago, or perhaps even earlier. The land bridge was dry ground for several thousand years before the sea level rose again and stopped migration. The hunters would have followed the migrating herds of large mammals as they moved south. As the glaciers melted, the First Americans spread to the North American coasts and across the entire continent. Native Americans adapted to the climates and terrains in which they lived and used whatever natural resources were available. The arrival of the Europeans in the 1500's began a change in the lives of the Indian people that continued through the next centuries. Sometimes the changes were good. The horses brought by the Spanish made bison hunting much easier and safer. But Vikings, Spanish, English and French explorers, colonists and missionaries spread diseases, made slaves of the people, forced relocations, claimed ownership of natural resources and land, and tried to stamp out the native cultures. Some of the Indian people survived, but not without making drastic changes in their life styles.

However, this is not the only theory. Some archaeologists believe that the migration consisted of seafaring tribes that moved along the coast, avoiding mountainous inland terrain and highly variable terrestrial ecosystems. Other researchers have postulated an original settlement by skilled navigators from Oceania , though these American Aborigine people are believed to be nearly extinct. Yet another theory claims an early crossing of the Atlantic Ocean by people originating in Europe . Many native peoples do not believe the migration theory at all. The creation stories of many tribes place the people in North America from the beginning of time. Mormon tradition holds that some Native Americans are descendants of the lost tribes of Israel Based on anthropological evidence, at least three distinct migrations

Extractions: AV (RM) 3 minutes *Requires RealPlayer No one knows for sure when the first nations arrived in North America or where they came from. It is generally assumed that the first humans to come to our continent travelled over a land bridge that existed where the Bering Strait is now, between Russia and Alaska. Some people think this happened as long as 100,000 years ago; others say it was closer to 12,000 years ago. Over the years, these first inhabitants of the western hemisphere migrated across its width and as far south as South America. The native peoples of Canada evolved into distinct groups. By the time the Europeans began to arrive, there were a number of different tribes from the Beothuk of Newfoundland to the Haida of the west coast and the Inuit of the far north. Often the variations in lifestyle and culture grew out of the different environments in which the native peoples had to live. Some had tipis or wigwams covered in bark, for instance, while others, who lived in less treed areas, used skins or snow blocks to build shelter. There were also different language groups and different dialects within each language group. Most were quite nomadic , moving from place to place in search of food which they acquired by hunting and gathering. But some, like the Huron, were agricultural and tended to settle in one place for a longer period of time. All the first nations had strong spiritual beliefs and a definite system of social organization.

The name "Indians" was bestowed by Christopher Columbus , who mistakenly believed that the places he found them were among the islands to the southeast of Asia known to Europeans as the Indies. (See further discussion below). Canadians now generally use the term First Nations to refer to Native Americans. In Alaska , because of legal use in the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act ( ANSCA ) and because of the presence of the Inuit Yupik , and Aleut peoples, the term Alaskan Native predominates.

Extractions: British and Indigenous Cultural Encounters in Native North America: 15801785 Dear Colleague, Thank you for inquiring about our NEH Summer Institute on the cultural encounters between British and Indigenous peoples. We encourage scholars from across the United States and from a variety of disciplines to explore the cultural interactions that occurred from the period of first contact to the end of the colonial era in North America. The last three decades have seen exciting developments in the respective fields of American Indian, Transatlantic, and American Cultural Studies. Interdisciplinary approaches continue to build bridges between established disciplines and create opportunities for dialogue that have not before existed. In the spirit of such developments we are pleased to announce a five-week NEH Summer Institute for college and university instructors, entitled British and Indigenous Cultural Encounters in Native North America: 15801785, to be held at the John Carter Brown Library in Providence, Rhode Island, between July 11 and August 12, 2005. The Institute will offer participants a timely introduction to major themes relevant to the study of the interaction between American Indians and the English as we approach the commemoration of the 400 th anniversary of the first permanent English colony at Jamestown in 1607.

We (Kevin, Karen and I) express our gratitude and friendship to this wonderful human being. Tribal origins may have begun as far back as 40,000 B.C. due to recent discoveries of crude chipped stone implements. The first inhabitants were hunters using wooden lances with sharp stone heads. This big game mammoth hunting flourished in the Canadian plains and woodlands until about 8000 B.C. When the mammoth became extinct, the people hunted deer, bear, elk and smaller game. By 1000 B.C. the early woodland culture had developed in eastern North America. During this period, the population became more stable and individual cultures began to crystallize. New features such as pottery were gradually incorporated into Canadas prehistoric tribes. Champlain sailed up the St. Lawrence in 1603 and traded with the Algonkin, Montagnais and Malecite. In 1608 he founded the settlement called Quebec. In 1609 Champlain assisted the Algonkin and their Huron allies and routed a band of 200 Iroquois warriors. This enmity added to Cartiers had historical consequences lasting nearly a hundred years. The establishment of Quebec brought about changes in the various native cultures, who were these people ? There are eight principal nations who speak the Algonkian family language. The now extinct Beothuk lived in Newfoundland, while the MicMac occupied Nova Scotia, northeastern New Brunswick, Gaspe in Quebec, and Prince Edward Island. South-western New Brunswick and the neighboring part of Quebec was the home of the Malecite. The Montagnais and Naskapi lived in what is now Quebec and Labrador.
