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 frame was covered with woven mats, bark, or hide . These people grew corn, squash, beans, pumpkins, and tobacco.

The tribe that I am researching for my curriculum module is the Kootenai Tribe. In this project I would like to learn the history of this tribe; from their first encounter with western settlers to the present times. I would also like to know the political history, and the impacts that this tribe has had on treaties and other government documents. This tribe has peaked my interest in the last few years because, after living in Montana all my life I have heard a lot about the Salish Tribe, but not the Kootenai. I want to know why that is, and why if the Salish and Kootenai joined together on the Flathead Reservation and created the Confederated Salish and Kootenai Tribes, why is the Kootenai history ignored?

The Cahuilla were a Native Southern Californian tribe that occupied the Riverside County, Higher Palomar Mountain Region and East Colorado Desert.

In the tradition of Native American culture, there is no custom of written records of personal life or tribal history. Even though they have written language, the major way to record history is by oral storytelling. Those stories focus more about creation time, tribal and family history rather than individual life. Recording autobiography from different Native American tribes is a convention way for anthropologists to preserve the Indian traditions, which gradually decline and lost after Native American contact with Western culture. Moreover, the autobiographies of Native American individuals also fulfill the public curiosity about their culture. Nevertheless, the culture differences create the confusion and misunderstand in the written records. For the people does not familiar, and understand the Indian cosmology, the autobiography provides us as a tool to reveal the secret veil of Native American. In the same time, it leads a certain degree of deduction about the narrator original meaning.

Sports teams should not worry about changing their name, mascot, and pride. The cost would be outrageous. The Washington Redskins are a big NFL team. Auerbach states, “Changing the name of these well-established teams would not be easy . . . they would have to spend millions on marketing in an effort to keep long-time fans and attract new one.” Companies would not be willing to spend millions of dollars on a name change. All of the merchandise would have to be changed, it would be very time consuming. According to the article, written by Auerbach, it is stated that “The Seminole tribe . . . has for generations played a major role in Florida’s maintaining an extensive partnership with Florida State University.” The Seminole tribe gets a special

To this day, the federal government and many people choose to leave the Yuchi tribe unrecognized and left with a bad reputation, despite the fact that their creative and insightful culture has no relation with any other known tribe. The Yuchi tribe created numerous things ranging from the Indian football game that celebrates an understanding of gender, to bigger and more significant things such as their own stock language otherwise known as Uchean. Even with the amazing historical culture and ideas of the Yuchi, they are only recognized as being uncooperative barbarians. The tribe had an early encounter with the Spanish and the Europeans during the Spaniard Juan Pardo's expedition where they gain the identity as being “warlike mountain chiefs”

The Great Plains was the home of thousands of Indians. The Great Plains Indians is a tribe that still lives in part of the North of the United States and Canada. This tribe is also known as the Sioux’s, a tribe that still lives in this territory. Indian tribes struggle every day because they do not have recourses. They do not live a normal life because most of them have diabetes which makes their life expectancy shorter than other Americans. Males tend to live till the age of 48 and females to the age of 52 which is not normal for Americans. Some of the factors that affect this life expectancy are low income and their nutrition. Most Indians only make about $8,000 per years, that is not even one third of what a normal American makes per year.

Today in the west there are still many homes made out of material very similar. Pueblo women wore a knee length dress that covered the right shoulder but left the left shoulder bare. In the 1900s evangelist did not think this was modest so they began to wear shirts underneath. Today that style is still around. In the west the soil isn't as good. The Pueblos lived in the west and they had to survive. They came up with ways that they could plant all kinds of plants with the dry soil. Thanks to them, today we have ways to plant crops in the west. The Pueblo Indians Spanish just liked they inspired Americans.

Deep within the rainforests of the Manu Provincial Park in Peru resides an indigenous tribe of hunter-gatherers known to us as the Mashco-Piro tribe. This tribe has remained un-contacted by modern culture until recent years and as such, the tribe continues to be a source of interest among anthropologists and civilians alike, for whom the secluded nature and “primitive” culture of these people generates curiosity. The Mashco-Piro tribe has actively avoided contact with non-native individuals, however in recent years there have been a handful of sightings and interactions with the tribe reported, including a video of the tribe released by the Ministry of Environment in Peru as well as photographs of tribe members released by Survival International.
