Guide To Records Relating To Native Americans The interaction of native american culture with colonial and state government The King appointed members of the councils of New York and New Jersey to http://www.archives.nysed.gov/a/researchroom/rr_ed_native_content.shtml
Extractions: Introduction Among the innovations introduced to Native Americans by Europeans coming to New York were horses, iron, firearms,and governmental recordation. The interaction of Native American culture with colonial and state government has been documented from the arrival of Europeans to the present time. The nature, quality, and extent of that recordation varies considerably, but the colonial and State government records of New York provide important information on Native American populations. This finding aid describes selected State Archives records which are most likely to contain information useful for the study of Native American issues and history. Some of the records were created as a result of State government programs relating exclusively to Native Americans. Most notable among these are records of the Thomas Indian School, 1855-1961; Indian Census and Annuity Rolls, 1881-1950; and an 1845 Population Census of Indian Reservations. Most of the records described, however, are more general in subject scope, containing only sections or files on Native Americans or on programs important to Native Americans.

Essay - Native American History Though native Americans of the region today known as New England share similar Deerfield, MA Institute for Massachusetts Studies, Westfield State http://memorialhall.mass.edu/classroom/curriculum_6th/lesson2/bkgdessay.html
Extractions: Native Peoples in New England by Angela Goebel Bain, Lynne Manring, and Barbara Mathews Native American history spans tens of thousands of thousands of years and two continents. It is a multifaceted story of dynamic cultures that in turn spawned intricate economic relationships and complex political alliances. Through it all, the relationship of First Peoples to the land has remained a central theme. Though Native Americans of the region today known as New England share similar languages and cultures, known as Eastern Algonquian, they are not one political or social group. Rather, they comprised and still comprise many sub-groups. For example, the Pequots and Mohegans live in Connecticut, the Wampanoag reside in southeastern Massachusetts, while the Pocumtucks dwelt in the middle Connecticut River Valley near today's Deerfield, Massachusetts. Like the elders of other Native communities, Algonquian elders have traditionally transmitted important cultural information to the younger generations orally. This knowledge, imparted in the form of stories, includes the group's history, information on origins, beliefs and moral lessons. Oral tradition communicates rituals, political tenets, and organizational information. It is a vital element in maintaining the group's unity and sense of identity.
