The Ojibwe Lifestyles

Like the Oneida, the Cherokee men were the hunters and the women were the farmers. Although the women did most of the farming, the entire Cherokee community would come together to plant and harvest the big fields of corn, pumpkins, beans, gourds, and potatoes. The women would keep personal gardens outside their homes to have fast growing corn and other produce that they could quickly use to make a meal. The Cherokee were famous for the many dishes that they made with corn. They made breads, soups, used corn as a side dish, and used it in stew. Corn was a necessity in the Cherokee community.

Woodland Indians inhabited the large geographical area in eastern North America. The varying climates and four seasons affected how each individual group of Indians lived and ate. The Appalachian mountains and Great Lakes prohibited movement of people to some extent. Some people were able to harness the shoreline water as a means of transportation. Gardening and harvesting of crops became a way of life for these people but was sometimes complicated by the harsh winter conditions in northern Wisconsin. Utilization of natural resources controlled the economy. These Indians were very knowledgeable about the trees and plant life in their area. They used the abundant wildlife as part of their

In the spring fishing camps that were built along lakes and rivers to net and spear fish. The fish were dried on rocks and smoked to be ate later. In late the spring the Anishinabek starts the monoomikiekamigak (wild ricing). The next section there was a women making wild rice. In the winter, the Anishinabek collected sap and made maple sugar from a stand of maple trees called the “sugerbush”. The Anishinabek have a tradition of making maple syrup. The sap It was boiled in ironwood containers on a huge piece of slate or flat rocks. In the fall, they hunted wild game, such as deer, elk, and moose. In the summer, they tended to their gardens and harvested crops. They collected roots, barries, fruit, and nuts, and used these to create medicines and food. They also made baskets from black ash trees. The second prophecy story told how the Anishinabek believe that a special boy will be born to show the people the path to their new home where the food grows on the water.

The Wappinger, like other tribes in the region, relied heavily on an agriculture of corn, beans, and squash. Tobacco was also grown for ceremonial purposes. The Wappinger would hunt for deer, wolf, and bear. The Wappinger made soup, cornbread and trail mix.

Are the hunting, fishing, and gathering rights guaranteed to the Ojibwe in the 1837 treaty still valid and enforceable? Did the Minnesota act ethically when it asserted the Ojibwe hunting, fishing and gathering rights were no longer valid?

They had ceremonies for several things. They have Midwinter ceremonies, Nature ceremonies, Maple sap ceremonies, Planting ceremonies, Bean ceremonies, Strawberry ceremonies, Green corn ceremonies, and Harvest ceremonies. Dances and songs are preformed counter clockwise. Some dances are preformed by men. Others are preformed by women. However both kept a beat played on drums and rattles. They like to have funny and fun ceremonies. The Onondaga tribe usually wears headdresses but women and men wear a type of skirt with sandals or slippers. The clothing they wear is specifically called The Gustoweh. The Gustoweh describes one nationality. The women and men would wear a type of pair of shoes that are like slippers with a flower on the front. They didn't wear long headdresses like the

Ojibway Indian men usually wore breechcloths and leggings. The women wore dresses and kept their hair in neat braids. Their shoes were called moccasins. They were made out of deer or moose hide. Customarily, they wore leather headbands with feathers in the back. The Ojibway Indians made pictures, belts, purses, and other objects out of beads. They loved to use wampum beads in their artwork. Wampum beads are purple and white beads made from shells. The Ojibway Indians make beadart by sewing the beads onto leather so they can be placed individually or sewn into strips. They make the strips by stitching the beads into a string. This is usually done by hand or sometimes with a bowloom. Beadart takes years to master and is very time consuming for the Ojibway Indians. The Ojibway also made dream catchers out of sticks and feathers. They believed that the dream catchers would protect them from bad dreams.

Eternal inflation is an alternative theory of creation that is a modification of the Big Bang Theory. The earliest universe was expanding matter, and particles that were next to each other would routinely be sent whizzing away to the farthest reaches of their cosmological horizons. It is no longer like that, however, as the inflation stopped. The theory of eternal inflation is that the expansion did not stop all at once. Rather, little bubbles of space randomly stopped inflating, or fell onto trajectories that led to the end of their inflation. And, since the expansion is rapid, the inflating space creates more space than the bubbles that stop inflating lose -- so inflation never ends. The result is an ever-expanding multiverse, which means not only is Earth not the center of the universe but our universe isn’t the center of the universe.

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 Natives built and lived in many small teepees, small dwellings, along with massive adobe homes in the woods using the materials they had found among the land

The Omaha tribe had a unique culture in which many people were involved and many traditions were celebrated. The Omaha tribe often lived in settled villages of round earthen lodges in the winter and fall. In the spring and summer, the Omaha families were able to move from camp to camp as they followed buffalo herds. When these Omaha families moved from place to place they would live in teepees, or tents, that would hide them from the buffalo. Within these households everyone had responsibilities. Omaha men were hunters and they often went to war to protect their families. The Omaha women were farmers and they also built and transported teepees. Most children in the Omaha tribe

Several hundred years ago, Native Americans had to survive in the New World without the creature comforts we have today. The winters in prehistoric Ohio are historic for being harsh. This shows that the Native Americans knew exactly how to survive the winter without the abundant resources in today’s society. The three things I would focus on if I had to survive a winter in prehistoric Ohio is shelter, food and water, and forming a culture with the other people around me.

Traditionally, rice is harvest in a big group of your family in later months of summer each year. In August people would move to rice camps for harvesting of rice. Once rice would ripen most of their energy was then focused on harvesting. According to Harvesting and Processing in Canada, harvesting wild rice is also called knocking the rice where they would use canoes that are said to be the best watercraft to use because of their shape and smoothness, which causes the least amount harm to the rice plants. The only tools the Dakotas and Ojibwa need were to move the canoe through the plants and ricing sticks. They would use the canoe paddles to get to the wild rice beds, also the long poles were used to move through the rice beds. Every harvester

Have you ever wonder how the world was created from another culture’s perspective? Native Americans used creation myths to explained to their people how the world was developed overtime. Creation myths are a big part of the Native American culture. they have been passed down from generation to generation. In the creation myths, harmony with nature, rituals, and strong social values are shown in each myths. The purpose of having strong social value in these myths is to teach younger Native Americans valuable lesson if they ever do something bad. These myths reveals how the rituals were created and their intentions for doing it. Creation myths has harmony with nature in it to show a very close kinship between them

In contrast, summer is the time of hunting. They lived in wigwams, a temporary pyramid or fome shaped shelters. To built the wigwam, the Mohicans used animal skins, sheets of birchbark, and woven mats to cover the wooden frames, as well as ropes to bundle the birch bark in place. Since the Mohican Native Americans located along the banks of a river, the transportation that they used the most to travel around was canoes. It constructed by the bark of the birch trees over a wooden frame, which is very light and easy for a man to carry around. Throughout the hunting season, there is a leader in the tribe supported hunters and farmers to raised crops of bean, corn, and squash. This letting people know that the Mohican Tribe has a stable and powerful political
