Do you know anything about how the Coastal and the Plateau use their surroundings? Or especially how they survived? The Puyallup and the Colville tribes interacted with their environment to provide food, shelter and clothing for their people.
The environments that the Coastal and plateau groups lived in affected the resources they had available and impacted how they obtained their food and what they ate. For example on page 1234 the text said,“Some of the food that the Coastal Puyallup ate was, five kind of salmon that they caught. Also they hunted deer, elk, black bear, beavers, raccoons, marmot.” Similar to Coastal Puyallup The Plateau Colville also hunted deer, elk, etc. But the Coastal Puyallup’s primary food is salmon. And for their dessert was fish eggs. However the Plateau Colville didn't eat salmon. Although on page 926 the text says, “The food hunt were extremely well organized. And the leftovers were dried or frozen for later consumption.” This shows wherever they

For example in the Coastal Puyallup on page 1233 the text says, “Puyallup men wore nothing or only breechcloths.” Also for the women the text on page 1233 says, “Women wore cedar bark apron and skirts. In cool weathers both sexs wore woven blankets made out of mountain goat wool, and add leggings,skirts, and moccasins when it got colder.” And now for the Plateau Colville on page 925 the text says, “In winter Colville women wore tonics with leggings and moccasins. Men wore leggings breechcloths.” Also on page 925 the text says, “Both sexs added fur robes for warmth. The Colville their clothing using porcupine quills, and decorated them with various seed, hoofs, shells, elk’s teeth, and ermine skins.” Similar to the Coastal Puyallup the Plateau Colville, wore leggings as well, and they wore moccasins in the winter. This shows wherever they lived in their environment it affect what they
The Wappinger wore clothes that were not too different from modern clothes. For example, women wore skirts with leggings. Men wore “breechcloths and leather leggings” (Wappinger Indian Fact Sheet). Both men and women wore sleeved shirts in cool weather. Like many other Native Americans, Wappinger people wore moccasins. Unlike some Native American tribes, Wappinger people wore beaded headbands with an optional feather or two. Today, Wappinger people wear modern clothes and for special occasions such as a dance they wear a feather in their hair.
1. How did these societies utilize environmental resources in their daily lives? List two examples from each region.
It is known that the south coast, where the Budawang Tribe was situated had been inhabited for 20,000 years or more. The Budawang tribe used the natural resources of the land to live and they had a very sustainable lifestyle with a pristine coast conditions. Some of the ways that the Budawang
The tribe lived in thatched houses before which were grass huts shaped like beehives. They had a communal way of life in their permanent habitations. When men went to hunt they build temporary shelters from buffalo hides. Before the modern times, the men dressed in breech clothes and occasionally putting on leather chaps to act as leg protection. Their hair was cut in traditional Mohawk or complete shaving of hair and wore single long tassel of hair on the top of the head. Women kept long hair styled in a bum or braid. They wore wrap around skirts and ponchos. In the modern times traditional dress and face paints are only reserved
The Coastal people adapted well to the wet climate. They mostly relied on the nearby ocean for food like sea mammals and whales. They took advantage of the forest area and cut down the cedar trees to make permanent longhouses. They also carved masks, totem poles, and carved stones. Even though they had the wet climate, they stayed in the same area.
The Paiutes are a Native American Indian tribe “made up of several bands throughout the western part of the United States, also known as the Great Basin region” (Ruby 222). The Northern Paiutes populated areas of Oregon, California, Nevada, and Idaho; and inquiries as to how the environment might have affected their interactions, migration, and social behavior is a topic of great interest in Oregon archeology. The Northern Paiutes “who practiced the ancestral lifeway well into the 19th century, were heirs to an extremely ancient cultural tradition” (Aikens 13). Historical archeological studies found that these groups often “made tools, gathered plants, and hunted animals of similar if not identical kinds” (Aikens 13). Through these similar identities,
Although the Plateau Indians had horses, the coastal lived near rivers and forests. They caught salmon. The Coastal Indians also caught “halibut, herring, flounder, and sardines.”Lambert,85. Along with that they also caught an abundance of all types of shellfish; “Mussels, limpets, clams, and oysters”Liptak,2.
The clothing of the Chippewa Indians was oftentimes made of animal skin. The tendons were taken from the animals and used as thread for the clothing that the Chippewa wore. The men wore a long piece of animal skin or cloth between their legs and belted it at the hips. The flaps then covered the front and behind of the men. Leggings were worn by both women and men and sometimes they were covered with fancy fringe. The leggings were created from animal skin and therefore were quite insulating during the cold winters. Women sometimes wore long skirts over the top of their leggings. Women wore a thin blouse, basically like a poncho, that included a cut out at the neck for the head to go through. Fancy aprons were worn on special occasions.
indians,the cahuilla and the mojave.these desert indians ate specific food and here are some things they ate,they ate corn, beans, cactus fruit, pumpkins, melon, nuts, rabbits, raccoons, and rattlesnakes too. Many tribes that have acorns around are lucky, because they could make acorn flour using acorns, water,seed beater,fire,toppings too!
They used what is known as a diffused substinance pattern. By this we mean that by using resources available to them lightly as opposed to intensely using the same resources, they were conserving for the future. These tribes would spiritualize nature. In this culture everything was significant. They held reverence for the environment and a strong kinship with nature. Often these people observed respectful guidelines to avoid spiritual retaliation. For instance, the bones of the beaver would be returned to the river where it had been trapped. This was believed to keep the beavers there plentiful.
Looking at the clothing from the Native Americans in comparison to the modern mid 20th century American so to gain a foundational understanding of the styles unique to each time period is one of many ways in which to identify the stark differences in apparel. Investigation into the distinguishing styles of different time periods would highlight the major difference of the Native American’s loin clothing and the early European immigrants heavily clothed dress. A knowledge of the different clothing styles opens the opportunity to explore any significant events of the time that may have influenced the clothing. Sections from the book Reader’s Companion to U.S. Women’s History provide close descriptions of the adoption of different clothing styles through exchanges similar to those made by the European immigrants and Native Americans accompanied with reasons why such exchanges occurred. Some ABC-CLIO articles (e.g. Lauren Gallow’s “A Developing Economy) identify the correlation between major events--such as the industrial and market revolution--of the time period and its impact on the clothing
The Cherokees lives were very different than the modern day people, they had different clothing, language,and even weapons that were used for different purposes.!!! The clothing of the Cherokees were different between the genders. Traditional clothing was different between the men and the women. During the cold weather, men wear added fur to their moccasins and wore leggings and deer skin shirts also robes and hats with fur on it. During the warm weather, the men didn’t wear much except for ordinary loin cloths made of deer skin with moccasins on their feet without added fur.
The Iroquoian's natural environment was situated along the St. Lawrence River. This river valley provided the Iroquoians with the right type of arable soil and climate for them to be able to farm. Due to their natural environment consisting of farmland, their economic production was primarily horticulture. They grew corn, beans, squash, and pumpkins, which were the staples of their diet. However, farming was also supplemented with hunting, fishing, and gathering. Due to having such a stable economic production, their demography consisted of large groups. Being able to sustain such a large population, the Iroquoians were also primarily sedentary, moving only every ten to twelve years, depending on when the crops needed to be rotated. Their demography,
The Sioux made clothes from animals in their homelands. The men wore breechcloths and thigh length leggings. The leggings often had fringes or porcupine quills on the outside seams. Their shirts were made from a whole animal hide. The hide was sewn under the arms to make loose sleeves. The bottom of the shirt and sleeves had fringes. The shirts were decorated with porcupine quills, beads, hair locks, or animal tails. Women wore deerskin dresses and skirts. The dresses were sewn from 2 or 3 animal skins. The hem and sleeves had fringes. Some dress tops had quill work, beads, elk teeth, or seashell decorations. Men and women wore moccasins. Sometimes they made them with fur still attached. When it was winter, the moccasins could be turned with the
Coats are made of 4 reindeer skins with the fur being closest to the skin on the inside and the leather on the outside. New Malistsa (fur clothing) are used in the winter time and the old worn out clothing is used in milder weather ("Tribe"). In extreme cold conditions men wear an extra layer of fur. Women wear Yagusha which is buttoned at the front and dresses of fawn skins decorated with beads, embroidery, and fur trimmings ("Chukchi"). Both men and women wear hip high reindeer skin boots that consist of an inner and outer boot worn together and tied up with a boot. Women are in charge of sewing the new clothing and mending any of the old clothes with materials brought in primarily by the
