Long before what is known as today’s civilization and even longer before technology had shown its face, the now-United States of America was majority, if not entirely, populated by the Native Americans. Amongst the various well-known Native American tribes, the Pueblo may very well be the most diverse. From their philosophical views on how our world came to be to their days-on-end labor in the fields to provide for their people, Puebloans were, or rather are, a very unique breed. Over the course of time, many stories (or tall tales) were told from generation to generation. May they be relating to the creation of mankind or how the earth itself came to be, all of which plays a key role in the Pueblo tribe’s culture, tradition, and day-to-day
Cherokee Indians were found in the south and southeast commonly in these states North Carolina, South Carolina, Kentucky, Georgia, West Virginia/Virginia, Alabama, and Tennessee. Old artifacts show that they lived in this region about 11,000 years ago to the present day and that they had very natural reliable resources that they used on a daily basis. The Cherokee Indians had a well-managed system in which they had villages of 60 or less for housing, the women did the cooking, cleaning, farming/harvesting and the men did the hunting and gathering. In the region where the Cherokee’s were known to live at they modified their own weapons, arts/crafts, and clothing also using trees and plants for medicinal uses. The Cherokee Indians were one of
The Pueblo Indians lived in the area of America that is now named New Mexico. Just like the Wampanoag Indians in Massachusetts, the Pueblo Indians tied spirituality to the land they lived on. Their creation story shows some of the spiritual bonds to their land. “…With the aid of Badger and Locust, the sisters climbed though a hole in the ground and at once created the mountains, lakes, and canyons of Pueblo country” (Sando 22). Since the Pueblos believed that their people had actually
The Navajo Indians have influenced the history and culture in Arizona in the 21st century. Through the past and present the Navajo Indians have been around dated back to centuries before Christopher Columbus landed in America. The Navajo were established in the Four Corners. The rich culture that the Navajo have been creating is still current today and influenced our states’ beauty.
The Navajo tribe is one of the most well known Native American tribes in the world, and also quite possible the largest. The Navajo reservation covers a large portion in the state of Arizona, an is the largest known reservation, even having its own government. However, the history of the Navajo tribe is a rich and complex thing, spanning almost as far back as the settlement of the first human inhabitation of the Americas. There are not large amounts of documented history from the pre-european era of the Navajo, but extensive scientific studies and multiple archaeological finds have given us clues about the early tribe. The Navajo were originally part of a group in western Canada called the Athapaskans.
After the Pueblo Revolt of 1680, a decade of uncertainty followed. Both the Pueblo and Spanish, were uncertain as to what the future would hold. The Pueblos, after the revolt, reoccupied their pueblos and carried on with their lives while the Spanish lived in colonies in exile farther south. However, the two groups proved to not stay apart for very long. As early as 1681, Governor Otermin attempted to reconquer the Pueblo world and marched to the Isleta Pueblo with a small army of 146 men. His group was unsuccessful, however, and was forced to turn around after his group, weakened by the harsh winter conditions, encountered a group of Pueblo leaders and fighting men. Six years later, Governor Reneros led a force up the Camino Real in 1687 where he met resistance at Santa Ana and Zia Pueblos, and in 1689, Governor Jironza ferociously assaulted Zia Pueblo.
European settlements in the new world had a number of impacts on Cherokee Native Americans. It led to them dying or being pushed onto reservations.
Though obvious to the name, the American Indian Tribes had much to do with the growth of what we now know of as the US. Long ago when the english settlers came over with Columbus, on the Nina, the Pinta, and the Santa Maria, they had found that there were people living there, were very different from “the white man”. But the American Indians have been located throughout the states from the very beginning and are still thriving, in some cases. One of the more commonly known, American Indian Tribes is the Cherokee tribe.(WKU Meteorology; Dr. Greg Goodrich)
The Pueblo Revolt of 1680 is an important event in U.S. history having been the first complete victory for Native Americans against any European nation. One of the major conflicts between the Pueblo Indians and the Spanish colonists was their different religions. Many historians believe that the Pueblo Indians revolted against the Spanish in order to eliminate Catholicism because it was threatening their own beliefs. Many Spanish officials interpret the Pueblo Revolt as being unnecessary and guided by the devil. The continuing study of this historical event will allow current Pueblo villages to learn about their ancestors' history and the major role religion had on the revolt. Further consequences of the Pueblo Revolt was the Spanish setback
The navajo tribe are also called the dine tribe. Who had lived in the southern dezert area like Arizona, New Mexico, Utah and Colorado. The navajo indians were semi-nominate and were called hunter-gathers. The men were in charge of getting food and keeping the camp safe from predators,and the women were in charge of the homes and land. The navajo indians had kelp sheep and goats around and had used there wool for clothes. The navajo tribe is related to the athabascan people by central canada. They had traveled to the southwest before the europeans had showed up. There tribe had consisted of medicine men and shamen.
The Navajo Native Americans experienced multiple struggles throughout their tribe’s history, mostly surrounding the problems to do with the United States military and the Spaniards pushing them from their territory. Although this was the fate of multiple tribes of Native Americans, the Navajo struggled intensely to leave their homeland. The Navajo were a beautiful tribe with multiple hardships. The Navajo tribe was formed sometime around the 1500s, and developed to become the largest Native American tribe. The word Navajo comes from “Tewa Navahu”, translating to mean “highly cultivated lands” loosely.
In the cooler weather, they wore buffalo skin for warmth. The Mexicans eventually influenced their style of dress. They began wearing vests, white tunics and more colorful clothing made from cotton.Storytelling is very important to the Apache Indian culture. Since they were not governed by any set of laws or rules and there were no jails for poor behavior, the Apache relied on passing down a code of conduct orally, from one generation to the next.The Apache were talented in arts and crafts. They were known for their beadwork in which they used shells, glass, and turquoise. They would often sew good luck beads onto war shirts. Basket weaving one of the Apache's oldest known forms of art . The burden basket and bread basket were the most common baskets. They also made jewelry, necklaces, earrings, and barrettes. Both sexes liked to wear shell jewelry.In the early 1800's, the relationships with the first white men to enter the region were solid. By the 1850's things had changed and as the Apache were being driven out of their homes and hunting and gathering was becoming scarce, raids and scalping began to take

The word Navajo means highly cultivated lands. The Navajo tribes began in the 1500s. They survived by trading maize and woven items for bison meat and weapons (“Navajo Indians”). The Navajos are the largest of all Native American tribes. They live on the largest reservation in the United States in the Four Corners area (“The Navajo Tribe”). They lived in small, simple homes made of sticks and bark. Eventually they built the homes out of stones and adobe. They designed their homes so the doors would face the east, causing the sun to shine in. These homes are called hogans.
My research paper is about the fierce Navajo Indians. The Navajos were a very intense group of Native Americans and were greatly feared by a lot of the surrounding tribes. They were one of last known group of Native Americans to arrive Southwest. The warriors got most of their livestock and horses from stealing them from the surrounding tribes and settlers. According to Mele and Magliocca authors of The Navajos “The Navajo Indians migrated from Canada in 1000 A.D and migrated to the four corners of New Mexico, Utah, Colorado, and Arizona.” The Navajos lived on a reservation that was 14,000 square miles. They lived in little houses called hogans and they were made from brushwood, animal skin, and leaves. Since the tribe was so fierce the warriors
It’s strange to think that even after my commitment to the military, here I am living with Sioux natives. You really humble out after you give up all your materialistic things and live for those around you. There is another white woman here named “Stands With a Fist” and her and I are getting married. My priorities have completely changed. I cared about my family a lot more and I even have love for some animals. I abandoned the fort because I’m very happy living with the natives and “Kicking Bird” has provided me with my very own teepee. These Sioux people are so loyal to their friends, passionate, and loving to their families. Every since I arrived at the Great Plains, there has been a wolf following me. I decided to name him Two Socks because
