The data on the rolls vary to some extent, but usually given are the English and/or Indian name of the person, roll number, age or date of birth, sex, and relationship to head of family. Beginning in 1930, the rolls also show the degree of Indian blood, marital status, ward status, place of residence, and sometimes other information. There is not a census for every reservation or group of Indians for every year.

Overwhelmed by Europeans and white Americans moving ever westward, Native American culture was steadily squeezed into reservations and small villages. Their 2.5-million people today represent less than one percent of the U.S. population. VOA's Valer Gergely went to New Mexico, where indigenous Americans are striving to hold onto their traditions.

Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Maps ... World Civilizations Encyclopedia of North American Indians Native American Church With roots in ancient tribal traditions, the Native American Church has evolved into a twentieth-century religion. It functions like other religions, offering spiritual guidance to its members, but it employs peyote as its sacrament. The church is one important place where Christianity and indigenous beliefs intersect, although some Native American Church chapters avoid Christian references and rely entirely on traditional tribal ways. Anthropologists and archaeologists have documented tribal use of the peyote cactus (Lophophora williamsii) ceremonially in pre-Columbian times in several tribes living along the coast of the Gulf of Mexico and the arid areas of northern Mexico. Legends describe peyote as a gift that first came to American Indians in peril. Some stories tell of the spirit Peyote speaking to a lone and despairing man or woman, advising the person to look under a nearby bush and eat a small cactus to be found there, after which the person would find renewed strength and the knowledge that would permit a return home. In the late nineteenth century the peyote sacrament expanded from northern Mexico and the modern American Southwest, serving as a bridge between traditional faiths and the realities of contemporary life. In the process it became the base for a unique Pan-Indian movement. Each tribe that accepted the peyote religion did so in its own way by establishing doctrines and rituals consistent with traditional tribal beliefs and practices.

Native American Spirituality Profile Beliefs Groups Native Americans and Christianity ... Bibliography I. Profile The diversity of American Indian tribes precludes a comprehensive examination of their religions and their belief systems. Anthropologists have compiled a huge trove of information detailing practices and beliefs of many different groups; this information remains isolated from popular culture. While there is a proliferation of popularized versions of Native American spirituality, these are often not the products of the tribes or their members. The beliefs and practices of many groups are sectarian derivatives of other native groups, and there is also a significant infusion of Christianity, and more recently, New Age beliefs and practices permeating these traditional beliefs. The origins of contemporary Native American religion, and that of their recent ancestors, can be traced back 30,000 to 60,000 years with the arrival of the first groups of people from northeast Asia. The religion of Native Americans has developed from the hunting taboos, animal ceremonialism, beliefs in spirits, and shamanism embraced by those early ancestors (Hultkrantz, 3, 12). Since these peoples settled in America slowly and in small groups over several thousand years, we still lack precise immigration knowledge. Beyond the directly inherited traditional Native American religions, a wide body of modified sects abounds. The Native American Church claims a membership of 250,000, which would constitute the largest of the Native American religious organizations. Though the church traces the sacramental use of the peyote cactus back ten thousand years, the Native American Church was only founded in 1918. Well into the reservation era, this organization was achieved with the help of a Smithsonian Institute anthropologist. The church incorporates generic Native American religious rites, Christianity, and the use of the peyote plant. The modern peyote ritual is comprised of four parts: praying, singing, eating peyote, and quietly contemplating (Smith, 167-173; Anderson, 41).
