The ethical views of the Navaho tribe are somewhat similar to our basic morals. They generally frowned upon actions such as lying, losing your temper, stealing or cheating. They praised generosity and shunned stinginess. However, they did not hold to many abstract ideas to support their morals. They had a primarily practical reason to the way they acted. For example, one would avoid lying so that they would be trusted in their community. Although the foundation of honesty in most situations was a key in their morals, lying was almost excused if you could get away with it in certain circumstances and white lies were frequently overlooked. Also, a person would rarely feel a sense of guilt if his crime went unnoticed. This fact, in my opinion,
In the world of fitness many are used to only focusing their time in one form of exercise ;however, there has been somewhat a movement in the fitness world where many say it’s not enough. Where people who only do light yoga are now entering powerlifting and vise versa, this has created the question of is this crossing of exercise actually good for the individual when it’s in a group setting to make the person actually want to exercise. The tribe mentality is a good for people who want to stick with their plans, find new outlets for exercise, and make new friend.
Native American life for the Natchez tribe was primitive and communal. The social structure of the Natchez Native American tribe was organized by a caste system which drew from religious beliefs and classified individuals as suns, nobles, honored people, and commoners. The most important members of the tribe were the Peace Chief named the Great Sun, his right hand man, the War Chief, and the four clan Mothers. The Chiefs were determined based upon the social status of their mother at birth. Natchez were considered hierarchical because the Peace Chief named the Great Sun was always the son of the clan Mother known as the Female Sun. Also, the Female Sun’s daughter would be the mother of the next the Great Sun. This made sure that the Chief was always male. The Natchez tribe was a strong matrilineal society because the Female Sun gave birth to the Great Sun. The power was passed through the Mother’s part of the family. Therefore, the descent was considered to be along female lines. Also, the Great Sun could have several wives and many servants. When
The northern tribes used bones and deer antlers to make knives, scrapers, awls, fishing tools, whistles, and pendants. The first tribes denpended on agriculture were those that lived on the Atlantic Costal Plain. They learned how to make pottery and cloth. The cloth was woven with thread made from soft layers of splint baskets. They made musical instruments like pipers, rattles, drums, nd they were played during ruitals and ceremonies dances. They built two types of houses, long houses, and wigwams. The first type was formed by bending poles into a cone or dome shape and by tying the poles together with vines. The frame was covered with woven mats, bark, or hide . These people grew corn, squash, beans, pumpkins, and tobacco.
For centuries the Nooksack tribe located in Northwest Washington has been dependent on the wilderness for survival. Originally defined as a horticultural community, the Nooksack people have used their knowledge the land to support their daily necessities of food and shelter. Salmon runs in the nearby Nooksack River, named after the local tribe, continue to be a steady source of protein for the tribe up to this day. However, this way of life has lately been threatened by the diminishing glaciers of nearby Mount Baker. In order to understand the significance this event has to the culture of the Nooksack tribe, we must first look at how their culture has changed in the past, how it would possibly change in response to the glacial thinning and what the reemergence of Mount Baker may mean for future Nooksack generations.

The Yurok tribe, although mostly assimilated in present times, has continued to thrive and protect their culture. The Yurok tribe has endured a sordid history. The tribe has suffered great atrocities at the hands of western culture. The Yurok went from being a thriving people, to being assimilated, almost to the point of ethnocide, (Kottak) and finally forced to live in a small area that was once a part of their vast ancestral land. The Yurok people have strived up until the present to keep their culture alive. In this essay I will be discussing what the Yurok tribe is like today, what problems they face politically and socially, and what the tribe is doing to combat these issues.

Our unnamed brutality in the new world started in 1607 when the first colony was founded and religious matters were thrown aside. Survival, Starvation,and attacking the Powhatan Tribe became almost as normal as milking your cow. The choices of my ancestors still affect me today after all history repeats itself and split blood is spread like wildfire throughout mass numbers of family trees. The american people are as cold and as self- righteous as the romans once were, they see something they want and they take it. My generation has yet to see war and hasn’t yet had the “privilege” to join the invasion of land, property, and soul. We feel responsible blood dripping from predecessor to predecessor our right’s flowing throughout the triumphant fluid in our veins. We have yet to pay the pied piper, some insist it’s a simple debt one must
As we explored the new land, we encountered many tribes who spoke a language that no member of the Corps knew. For that reason, we needed an interpreter to travel with us on our expedition. While we stayed with the Mandan tribe during the winter, we asked for an interpreter. Sacagawea, a kind young woman, was the perfect person for that task. One very valuable language we needed was the Shoshone language, which Sacagawea knew. In fact, as she was talking with the Shoshone tribe, she recognized her brother. Because of Sacagawea, we were able to get the horses we needed from the Shoshone to cross the mountains. Not only could Sacagawea communicate with the tribes, she also had a calming presence. She was able to help keep some of the Native Americans
After reading passage one about John Smith, explain how you believe the colonial settlement influenced the Powhatan tribe? Do you believe that because John Smith was enslaved, that is why he was such a impactful leader? On the other hand, do you believe that it made him arrogant and he resigned from his position so he would not demoted?

I Liked reading about the Cherokee people the most this week . I have an interest in the Cherokee people and their traditions. I liked learning about how they accomplished tasks such as gathering food and water, how they built their houses and, their stories could explain things in life. Even though our religions are different, they have a lot in common with each other. I have always believed that the root of all religions is talking about the same Person,or God, just translated to the way of their people. They talk about their beliefs that the creator put them in the Appalachian mountains, the first man and women and the first town.
The film didn’t really deal with the history of white America subjugating and wiping out Native Americans, they did however made it known that was the intention of the white military. The film dealt with more of the different tribes of Native Americans wiping each other out. In the film Pawnee people wiping out the Lakota people. They wanted what Lakota people had, they were all about taking anything and everything they want from others and they didn’t care how many lives they had waste to get there. The Lakota people did everything they could, to save their family and food supplies. Also the film had a lot to do with Lt Dunbar finding himself. Before he met the Lakota people he was a lost and with them he found himself, the meaning of life
