Glowen By this time the Spokane had begun incorporating horses into their lifestyle. Smallpox reached the Plateau region thirty years before the Lewis and Clark expedition traveled through the area. It is estimated that in this time the disease reduced the indigenous populations of the region by fifty percent. The first treaty was struck between the United States and an Indian nation, the Delaware (earlier treaties had been negotiated between the British North American colonies and various Indian tribes.) The Articles of Confederation gave the power to regulate Indian affairs and trade to the central government not the states. A smallpox epidemic spread through the Sanpoil tribe of the Plateau region. Continental Congress prohibited whites from unlawfully settling on Indian lands. The Northwest Ordinance asserted the need for the creation of reservations, and the protection of Indian rights while setting the precedent for the systematic settlement of the West by whites. The new U.S. Constitution reserved the sole power to regulate trade with Indian tribes for the federal government.

    Extractions: Exploring Northwest Treaty History rom 1854 - 1855, Governor Isaac Stevens traveled hundreds of miles across the modern states of Washington and parts of Montana, Oregon and Idaho brokering ten treaties amongst diverse Native American cultures. The history of this treaty trail presents the quintessential history of encounter between Euro-American and Native American cultures. Written, pictorial and oral history accounts rightly describe Indian-white relations that were confusing, difficult, and ultimately tragic. The Euro-American drive for occupation of Western land lead to the creation of a reservation system established via the treaty councils. The treaties attempted to isolate Indian society and dispossess Native Americans of land and culture. Close evaluation of the Stevens Treaty Trail reveals phases of interaction. In the earliest treaty council at Medicine Creek in 1854, there was much confusion about what was taking place, language issues and Stevens asserted much control over the events. In subsequent councils, including the Walla Walla Council in 1855, Native Americans utilized their own interpreters, negotiated hard with Stevens, and attempted to maximize their situation.

The Northern Sahaptians of the northern part of the state, and the Lutuamian of southern Oregon which contains the Modoc and Klamath. First to be dealt with will be the Northern Sahaptian. Northern Sahaptian: Tenino Along the south bank of the Columbia from the Wasco on the west to the Umatilla on the east, and on the lower reaches of the Deschutes and John Day Rivers, were the Tenino. There were four subdivisions each with a pair of villages - one for summer and one for winter. The summertime village was a rather flimsy one along a river. The wintertime villages were more permanent and several miles away from the rivers. The four subdivisions of the Tenino were the Tenino Proper who spent their summers four miles east of The Dalles and their winters six miles inland, the Wyam or Deschutes who summered- at Celilo and wintered on the best bank of the Deschutes near its confluence with the Columbia, the John Day who had both their summer and winter villages on the John Day River not far from the Columbia, and the Tyghwho were an offshoot from the Tenino Proper and whose winter village was at Tygh Valley and summer village was at Sherar's Bridge on the Deschutes (Murdock 1938:395-396).

Along the way he took a good bath, saying to himself, "Lest I make myself repulsive to his taste," and then he dressed himself all up: "Lest he will vomit me up or spit me out." Then he tied himself with [very long ropes] to three mountains. From there he came along up and over ridges. Suddenly, behold, he saw a great head. He quickly hid himself in the grass and gazed at it. Never before in his life had he seen anything like it; never such a large thing away off somewhere melting into the horizon was its gigantic body. Coyote shouted to him, "Oh Monster, we are going to inhale each other!" The big eyes of the monster roved, looking all over for Coyote but did not find him because Coyote's body was painted with clay to achieve a perfect protective coloring in the grass. Coyote had on his back a pack consisting of five stone knives, some pure pitch, and a flint fire-making set. Presently Coyote shook the grass to and fro and shouted again, "Monster! We are going to inhale each other." Suddenly the monster saw the swaying grass and replied, "Oh you Coyote, you swallow me first then; you inhale first." So Coyote tried. Powerfully and noisily he drew in his breath, but the great monster just swayed and quivered. Then Coyote said, "Now you inhale me, for you have already swallowed all the people, so swallow me too lest I become lonely."

    Extractions: Nez Perce Indians Visit the Nez Perce Indians Homepage Landscape of Imagination To understand the Nez Perce people you must first understand their landscape. Legends of their cultural ties to land run as deep as the canyons of the nearby Clearwater River. The stir of animals in the forest and the glint of fish signal the beginning of harvest or herald the coming of significant events. Forests, rivers, and mountains remain the great cathedrals, the holy places of worship and growth. Spend some time in the shadows of Nez Perce land and you will experience the same sacredness. Everyone is Welcome Several times of year the Nez Perce hold celebrations to honor their rich Native American culture. Dressed in their colorful regalia, Native Americans from across the Northwest gather either in nearby Lapwai or up the river in Kamiah for several days to celebrate. Drums can be heard throughout the region during the celebrations and the voices of the singers mix in the air with the delicious smells of traditional foods. Many of the feasts mark the arrival of edible plants and the run of salmon along the big rivers. People of Two Worlds The Nez Perce nation of north central Idaho is as diverse a culture as you will find in North America. Do not look for stereotypes or Hollywood images. If you look carefully you will find a people of two cultures, with feet firmly planted in both worlds and an eye toward the future.

WIGWAM PHOTOS NATIVE HOUSING In and north of the United States there were some twenty well-defined types of native dwellings, varying from the mere brush shelter to the five-storied pueblo. In the eastern United States and adjacent parts of Canada the prevailing type was that commonly known under the Algonkian name of wigwam, of wagon-top shape, with perpendicular sides and ends and rounded roof, and constructed of stout poles set in the ground and covered with bark or with mats woven of grass or rushes. Doorways at each end served also as windows, and openings in the roof allowed the smoke to escape. Not even pueblo architecture had evolved a chimney. In general the houses were communal, several closely related families occupying the same dwelling. The Iroquois houses were sometimes one hundred feet in length, divided into compartments about ten feet square, opening upon a central passageway along which were ranged the fires, two families occupying opposite compartments at the same fire. Raised platforms around the sides of the room were covered with skins and served both as seats and beds. The houses of a settlement were usually scattered irregularly, according to the convenience of the owner, but in some cases, especially on disputed tribal frontiers, they were set compactly together in regular streets, and surrounded by strong stockades. The Iroquois stockaded forts had platforms running around on the inside, near the top, from which the defenders could more easily shoot down upon the enemy.
