Abenaki Native Americans have occupied northern New England for at least 10,000 years. There is no proof these ancient residents were ancestors of the Abenaki, but there is no reason to think they were not. Acolapissa The mild climate of the lower Mississippi required little clothing. Acolapissa men limited themselves pretty much to a breechcloth, women a short skirt, and children ran nude until puberty. With so little clothing with which to adorn themselves, the Acolapissa were fond of decorating their entire bodies with tattoos. In cold weather a buffalo robe or feathered cloak was added for warmth.

85. US Lacrosse -- History of native American Lacrosse. By Thomas Vennum Jr. their late datebrings into question any widespread diffusion of the sport on the west coast. http://www.lacrosse.org/museum/history.phtml

US Lacrosse Home About US Lacrosse About the Sport Membership ... Members Only History of Native American Lacrosse By Thomas Vennum Jr. Author of American Indian Lacrosse: Little Brother of War Lacrosse was one of many varieties of indigenous stickball games being played by American Indians at the time of European contact. Almost exclusively a male team sport, it is distinguished from the others, such as field hockey or shinny, by the use of a netted racquet with which to pick the ball off the ground, throw, catch and convey it into or past a goal to score a point. The cardinal rule in all varieties of lacrosse was that the ball, with few exceptions, must not be touched with the hands. Early data on lacrosse, from missionaries such as French Jesuits in Huron country in the 1630s and English explorers, such as Jonathan Carver in the mid-eighteenth century Great Lakes area, are scant and often conflicting. They inform us mostly about team size, equipment used, the duration of games and length of playing fields but tell us almost nothing about stickhandling, game strategy, or the rules of play. The oldest surviving sticks date only from the first quarter of the nineteenth century, and the first detailed reports on Indian lacrosse are even later. George Beers provided good information on Mohawk playing techniques in his Lacrosse (1869), while James Mooney in the

Key individuals in developing the culture area concept were: a. Otis T. Mason (1) 18 environmental zones b. Clark Wissler (1) Initially developed food areas (2) Subsequently developed material culture areas (3) Maps published in The American Indian (1917) 3. Thus, museology must be considered as a driving force for geographic categorization that occurred in the early twentieth century . B. Culture areas were seen to reflect clusters of behavior that often reflected similar adaptive strategies. 1. Thus, ecological implications were unavoidable 2. Thus, culture areas could be defined by

In the Mountain Man Indian Fur Trade articles, the Plains and Rocky Mountain Indians are grouped together as Plains Indians. The various articles on the Mountain Man Indian Fur Trade site are directed towards the effects of westward exploration, example the Lewis and Clark Expedition, on Plains Indian Cultures. Too much of western exploration history of the Mountain Man Indian fur trade from the fifteen hundreds through eighteen forty reflects the prejudices of the times rather than factual information on the effects of explorers, Mountain Men, fur traders, and Canadian voyageurs on Native American Cultures. The Mountain Man Indian Fur Trade website is concerned with the history of the Mountain Men and the Indian fur trade, not trapping. There have been several emails against trapping fur bearing animals. If the people that sent those emails had read the articles, they would know the Mountain Man Indian Fur Trade website is not about trapping....I have never trapped anything, and have no interest in doing so. I can only plead guilty to choosing a poor .com name for the website. Despite the importance of leg traps for Mountain Men in the fur trade, I personally feel leg traps were cruel and inhumane.

The Strait of Juan de Fuca flows between the southern end of the island and the coastline of northwest Washington. First sighted by Spanish explorers in 1774 and visited by Capt. James Cook in 1778, it was named in honor of Capt. George Vancouver, who circumnavigated the island in 1792. var tcdacmd="cc=edu;dt"; Encyclopedia Vancouver Island Victoria (the provincial capital), Nanaimo, Port Alberni, and Esquimalt (site of a large naval base) are the largest cities. There are many small ports and fishing settlements. Both Spain and Britain claimed the island; it was sighted (1774) by Juan P©rez, the Spanish explorer, and Capt. James Cook was the first (1778) to land there. In 1788, John Meares, an English trader, built a fort on Nootka Sound , which was later occupied by Spanish forces. In 1792 the island was circumnavigated and chartered by Capt. George Vancouver. British sovereignty over Vancouver was confirmed (1846) when the U.S.-Canada line was drawn through Juan de Fuca Strait by the Oregon Treaty. Vancouver Island was made a crown colony in 1849 and in 1866 became part of British Columbia.

Photo courtesy of Pat Jensen West Coast Trail The West Coast Trail is located on the southern west coast of Vancouver Island, BC Canada and stretches 77 kilometers from Port Renfrew on the south end to Bamfield on the north end. Thousands of hikers travel all or part of the trail each year. To address the concern over environmental impact on the trail and hiker safety and enjoyment the Canadian Parks Service has instituted a reservation system. We hope that this system will provide you with a more satisfying wilderness experience. Over the years the stretch of coastline encompassing the West Coast Trail has been many things to many people. Here, the influence of the ocean on the human history has been dramatic. Native people, lighthouse keepers, shipwreck survivors, homesteaders, prospectors and missionaries all have traveled along these trails and beaches. Today, visitors come to experience the beauty of the coastal environmental and the challenge of hiking one of the most arduous hiking trails in North America. The West Coast Trail is one of three components of the Pacific Rim National Parks system to protect the outstanding natural features of this area, both terrestrial and marine. The beauty of this craggy sea stacks; dramatic rocky headlands; wide, sandy beaches and lush rainforests all intertwined with a vibrant cultural history, are but a few special features on the West Coast Trail.
