Extractions: Geographic Overview When complete these Histories will encompass approximately 240 tribal histories (contact to 1900). They will be limited to the lower 48 states of the U.S. but also include those First Nations from Canada and Mexico that had important roles ( Huron Micmac , Assiniboine, etc.). Each history's content and style are representative. At the end of each History you will find links to those Nations referred to in the particular History you have just read. It is my intent to use the Internet so as to solicit feedback regarding these Histories and I want you to feel free to comment or suggest corrections via e-mail. Working together we can end some of the historical misinformation about Native Americans. Now, having said that, I would like to present the outline which will provide a glimpse as to how I intend to address these Histories. While there has been some initial jumping around, I do intend to present each History in the order to be found below. I look forward to your comments...

Extractions: Creation stories teach that Native Americans have been where they are since the world was created. It is also thought that First Americans migrated from Siberia over the Bering Strait about 14,000 years ago, or perhaps even earlier. The land bridge was dry ground for several thousand years before the sea level rose again and stopped migration. The hunters would have followed the migrating herds of large mammals as they moved south. As the glaciers melted, the First Americans spread to the North American coasts and across the entire continent. Native Americans adapted to the climates and terrains in which they lived and used whatever natural resources were available. The arrival of the Europeans in the 1500's began a change in the lives of the Indian people that continued through the next centuries. Sometimes the changes were good. The horses brought by the Spanish made bison hunting much easier and safer. But Vikings, Spanish, English and French explorers, colonists and missionaries spread diseases, made slaves of the people, forced relocations, claimed ownership of natural resources and land, and tried to stamp out the native cultures. Some of the Indian people survived, but not without making drastic changes in their life styles.

Extractions: Overview of the Subarctic The phrase Subarctic People refers to those native peoples living in the Subarctic Culture Area. The Subarctic Culture Area is territory stretching across northern latitudes from the Pacific to the Atlantic Ocean. It covers a vast region, including most of Alaska's and Canada's interior. What is termed the Northern Forest, filled mostly with evergreen trees - pine, spruce and fir, with some birch, aspen and willow as well - grows in the Subarctic. This kind of northern forest is called taiga. Since there is relatively little topsoil for deep root systems, the trees of the taiga are generally scraggy and short. The northern edge of the taiga borders the treeless tundra of the Far North. The Northern Forest is broken up by a network of inland waterways. Some of the largest lakes are the Great Bear Lake, Great Slave Lake and Lake Winnipeg. Some of the largest rivers are the Yukon, Mackenzie, Peace, Saskatchewan, Red River of the North and La Grande. There are thousands of smaller lakes and rivers, plus many ponds, streams and swamps. In the western part of the Subarctic, the rolling taiga and swamplands give way to highlands - the northern part of the Rocky Mountain chain, the Yukon Plateau, and the British Columbia Plateau. The Subarctic is home to abundant wildlife. Large mammals include caribou, moose, musk oxen, bear, and deer. Small mammals include beaver, mink, otter, porcupine, rabbits and squirrels. Moreover, there are many species of birds, especially waterfowl and fish.

Extractions: History speaks for the Beothuk The ghost of the Beothuk, Newfoundland's indigenous people, hangs all over the proposals of the long knives for termination of aboriginal rights as the final solution for the Indian question A HISTORY AND ETHNOGRAPHY OF THE BEOTHUK By Ingeborg Marshall, McGill-Queen's University Press Reviewed by Anthony J. Hall L eading the charge against the recognition of aboriginal land rights in British Columbia, Canada's richest and fastest-growing province, are Globe and Mail columnist Gordon Gibson and former b.c. civil servant Mel Smith. In many columns, Gibson has railed against the terms of the Nisga'a Treaty, an agreement that he says entrenches racial discrimination in law. Gibson's arguments, which have wide currency especially in the Canadian Alliance Party, are largely extensions of the themes in Smith's Our Home Or Native Land?, a little text that is on its way to becoming something of a cult classic among far-right activists organizing to oppose aboriginal rights. Smith cites selectively from various court rulings to advance the thesis that it is perfectly legal for governments and corporations to dispossess aboriginal peoples of lands and resources in Canada without their consent and without compensation. Both Smith and Gibson join a long line of social Darwinists who have asserted or implied that North America has no lasting place for indigenous nations, and that natives must simply leave behind their aboriginal nations to enter the political and economic cultures of their colonizers as equal citizens.

Extractions: by Zoltan Grossman used with permission This story imagines a parallel universe in which Native Americans have conquered and settled Europe. Part of the point is that Native Americans would not have done to Europeans what Europeans actually did to them. The main point is (as Sherman Alexie says) is to "turn it around," in order to expose cultural double standards. Versions of this piece were published in 1992 in Akwesasne Notes, News From Indian Country, Report on the Americas, and other periodicals. The piece is posted on-line in "Readings on Cultural Respect" on the Midwest Treaty Network website at http://www.alphacdc.com/treaty/r-explt.html#story . Feel free to use it (with attribution) for education around October 12th. It was 500 years ago that Callicoatl sailed across the ocean with three Aztec boats, and found a new continent, a new Eastern Hemisphere. The commemoration of this event is being marked with great fanfare and celebration. Every child has been taught the story: how Callicoatl convinced Montezuma II to support his journey, how the Aztec sailors nearly despaired on the journey, and how they "discovered" a strange white-skinned race in the "New World." But that is only part of the story. It is important that in this, the 500th anniversary of Callicoat's voyage, the record be set straight.

Extractions: The following lecture was given by our wonderful friend, Ed Mentz Sr. Ed is also the author of some of the beautiful artwork on our pages. We (Kevin, Karen and I) express our gratitude and friendship to this wonderful human being. Tribal origins may have begun as far back as 40,000 B.C. due to recent discoveries of crude chipped stone implements. The first inhabitants were hunters using wooden lances with sharp stone heads. This big game mammoth hunting flourished in the Canadian plains and woodlands until about 8000 B.C. When the mammoth became extinct, the people hunted deer, bear, elk and smaller game. By 1000 B.C. the early woodland culture had developed in eastern North America. During this period, the population became more stable and individual cultures began to crystallize. New features such as pottery were gradually incorporated into Canadas prehistoric tribes. Champlain sailed up the St. Lawrence in 1603 and traded with the Algonkin, Montagnais and Malecite. In 1608 he founded the settlement called Quebec. In 1609 Champlain assisted the Algonkin and their Huron allies and routed a band of 200 Iroquois warriors. This enmity added to Cartiers had historical consequences lasting nearly a hundred years. The establishment of Quebec brought about changes in the various native cultures, who were these people ? There are eight principal nations who speak the Algonkian family language. The now extinct Beothuk lived in Newfoundland, while the MicMac occupied Nova Scotia, northeastern New Brunswick, Gaspe in Quebec, and Prince Edward Island. South-western New Brunswick and the neighboring part of Quebec was the home of the Malecite. The Montagnais and Naskapi lived in what is now Quebec and Labrador.

I read this book for a research project I was on doing Native American Shamanism and found this book extremely helpful. Although it may not be a great literary work it is a wonderful source of information and insight into the rites of passage into becoming a shaman. The author, Robert Lake has had a vast amount of experience in the field, undergoing the rites and rituals of the shaman as well as being an observer. I recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in Native American culture, especially shamanism. Prepare to have your eyes opened. I like this book; I am NOT entirely happy with it; but it is a well written volume.
