Traditionally the Western Shoshone Nation’s ancestral land covers an area spanning from southern California, clear through Nevada, and barely touching southern Idaho. Within this scope of land is the previously mentioned Yucca Mountain, but also Mount Tenabo, a mountain in the Cortez Range of Northern Nevada, which is currently subject to mining. This large area of land is know as the Great Basin, where the habitat is dependent on the rain and snow melt water which comes off the high mountains, feeding the creeks which keep the living, living. Mount Tenabo is one such mountain; however it also holds a place in Shoshone creation stories, and is the site of ancient burials causing it to be of great importance to the entire nation of the Western Shoshone. The people of the Western Shoshone Nation still use the mountain to gather medical plants from these sacred places of their ancestors, and hold ceremonies. In 1863 the elders of the Western Shoshone agreed to the Ruby Valley Treaty, which recognized the Western Shoshone as the owners of the land, though allowed non-native Americans to use the land by payment of royalties to the nation. However, by the 1900s this treaty was not respected by the Americans, and the Government took over the land, and marked it for public use. The Western Shoshone have been pursuing legal action against the United States government for the right govern their own land, and in 1976 a settlement of $26 million was offered to the nation.

The Eastern Band of Cherokee Indians are indigenous of parts of the Southeastern United States. They have members all the way south as Georgia and are spread out across the Appalachian mountain trail in both North and South Carolina and stretching across into Tennessee. The land in which each tribe is from has a particular way is shaping how they live and defines the important aspects of that culture. In the Eighteenth Century the Cherokee Indians were one of the most heavily populated Indian societies in the Southeastern United States. These Indians have many unique political and spiritual ideas and world views.
As a resolution to the disputes and friction between the Shoshone and the U.S. government, Congress passed the Treaty of Ruby Valley in 1863 (Greene) – ratified in 1866 – granting the U.S. govemment the right to access Shoshone territory but not take Shoshone land (The Sierra Web). In 1936, the Timbisha Shoshone established a tribal center at Furnace Creek but not until 1983, did the Timbisha Shoshone finally become a federally recognized Indian tribe, although they still did not own any land in Death Valley (Greene). In December of 2000, President Clinton signed the Timbisha Shoshone Homeland Act, which restored tribal ownership to approximately 7,700 acres of land to the Timbisha Shoshone Tribe (The Sierra Web). The Timbisha Shoshone Tribe, particularly Pauline and Maddy Esteves, fought many years to regain their ancestral land after being federally recognized as a native tribe but by agreeing to the terms of Timbisha Shoshone Homeland Act, the Shoshone people also agreed to forfeit some of their native rights, such as the right to own a casino. Unfortunately, this Homeland Act prevents them from create many businesses. The Timbisha Shoshone are currently fighting for the land they own because the government and private companies are still trying to seize their land for

This tribe was “first encountered by Lewis and Clark in 1805” (learner.org, 2016). The Shoshone tribe is related to the Ute, Comanche, and Paiute Indians.

Of all the features upon the earth there are some ascribed with special significance. These features, whether caves, lakes, deserts, outcroppings, or something else entirely, hold tremendous relevance for the groups that dwell near them. Such beliefs in the worth and importance of such sites are entrusted from one passing generation to the next. These beliefs, and the physical objects they rest upon, become increasingly vital to that group’s identity as a people. One such group is the Teton Lakota of the Sioux Nation in South Dakota, an area that has been home to them for hundreds of years and, while their entire homeland is precious to them, of particular importance are the Black Hills, or Paha Sapa as they are called in Lakota.
