Native American Information: History of the Beothuk Indians
The culture, societal make-up, hunting and spiritual life of the Beothuk Indians. An analysis of the living conditions of these people surviving in the 21st century.
The Beothuk Indians were the original inhabitants of the island of Newfoundland. Upon first European contact in the 16th Century, there were about 2,000 Beothuk people. By the early 19th Century, however, they had been completely wiped out. The Beothuk were alternatively known as the Ulno, theSkraelling and the Red Indians. They spoke a unique language which may have been remotely connected to the Algonquin tongue spoken on the mainland. Not much is known about the culture of the Beothuk people due to their isolation. Rather than being farmers, as were many of the mainland tribes, the Beothuk were hunters, with the main target being the Caribou. These were to be found in large numbers on the island. The coastline also presented many opportunities to acquire food, with fish, seals and other seafood in plentiful supply. As a result the Beothuk became very skilled fishermen and adept at manoeuvring their canoes while using their spears to harpoon their prey. When the Europeans and the Beothuk tribal enemies the Micmac began to inhabit coastal areas, however, the Beothuk fled into the interior of the island. But here the food supplies were not nearly as plentiful. In fact, many Beothuk began to die of starvation. The Beothuk were known as Red Indians primarily because of their extensive use of red ochre. A greasy mixture of red ochre would be applied to the face and bodyalong with the hair as well as any personal possessions a person had. In fact it is believed that the term ‘redskin’ as used to apply to all Native American Indians originated at the time of contact between Europeans and the Beothuk.

Montagnais Montagnais Naskopi village Nitassinan, the Montagnais homeland, is a vast area which includes most of Quebec east of the St. Maurice River extending along the north side of the St. Lawrence to the Atlantic Ocean in Labrador. To the north, their territory reached as far as the divide between the St. Lawrence and James Bay drainages. There were three divisions: the Montagnais along the St. Lawrence between the St. Maurice River and Sept-Iles; the Naskapi east of them in Labrador; and the Attikamek on the upper St. Maurice River north of Montreal. Innu (Montagnais) woman (ca. 1930)) Originally Population before contact was about 10,000, and reaching its low-point of 2,000 in 1884. Currently, there are almost 13,000 Montagnais in Quebec with another 800 living in Labrador. The 1,100 Naskapi are also split - 600 in Quebec and 500 in Labrador, while the Attikamek have 4,600, all in Quebec. When all groups of the Montagnais are added together, the total is close to 20,000 making the Montagnais the largest group of Native Americans in Quebec after the Mohawk. At present, they are organized into four separate tribal governments. The Naskapi and Montagnais in Labrador are represented by the Innu Nation, while the Quebec Montagnais belong to either the Mamuitun or the Mammit Innuat First Nation. The Attikamek formerly were part of the Montagnais but recently have chosen to maintain a separate status.

It is limited to the lower 48 states of the U.S. but also includes those First Nations from Canada and Mexico that had important roles ( Huron , Assiniboine, etc.).

At the end of this History you will find links to those Nations referred to in the History of the Beothuk. Using the Internet, this can be more inclusive.

    Early European contact
    "Beothuk" means "people" in the Beothuk language . The origins of the Beothuks are uncertain, but it appears that they were an Algonquian group who displaced a Dorset culture on Newfoundland about 1000 years ago. It is possible that the natives described by the Vikings as Skraelings were Beothuk inhabitants of Labrador and Newfoundland. When other Europeans arrived, beginning with John Cabot in , contact with the Beothuks was established. Estimates on the number of Beothuks on the island at this time vary, ranging from 1000 to 5000. The Europeans called the Beothuk "Red Indians", because they painted themselves with red ochre . The term "Red Indian" was later used to refer to North American native people in general and took on a more negative connotation. The Beothuks spent their summers fishing along the coast and their winters hunting in the interior. In the fall, they set up fences which were used to drive migrating
