   Extractions: Grade 3 Indian Project The Northwest Indian Culture was in what is today the states of Washington, Oregon, and northern California. Many small tribes such as the the Makah, the Chinook, and the Tillamook lived in this culture area. The tribes in this culture were much smaller than the other cultures. The Northwest Culture depended on the forests for their shelter. Every home was made of wood, and the whole village pointed toward the water, whether it was a river, a quiet bay, or the ocean. Along the beach were the canoes, covered with bark matting or branches to protect them from the weather. In the back of the house were wooden racks that dried fish, wooden sheds for smoking fish, and storage sheds. The homes themselves were quite large. They were built for more than one family. There is evidence of houses that were over 1,000 feet longbig enough for the whole village. The houses were built with frames of large trees. These were then covered with wooden planks that overlapped to keep out the wet weather. There were no windows, but there was a hole in the roof that let in air.

   Extractions: The Chinook Indians, relatives to the Clatsop tribe, lived in the Northwest along the banks of the Columbia River and the coast of the Pacific Ocean. The Chinooks were superb canoe builders and navigators, masterful traders, skillful fishermen and planters. They lived in large wooden plank houses and slept on reed mats over raised boards. Tensions were eased only temporarily, however, when a couple of weeks later some Chinooks further up the river stole a saddle and a robe from the Corps. After Lewis ordered a search of the village, the stolen goods were found, and the Corps passed the falls of The Dalles and returned to Nez Perce country without having fired at a native.

Make your own Totem Pole (out of paper) Introduction What was life like 2,000 years ago in what is now the Puget Sound region of Washington State? All of the west coast tribes were considered rich by the other Indian nations . Of all the coastal Indians, the Tulalip, Swinomish, Lummi and Skagit tribes were considered the most rich. These were the Indian tribes who lived in the Puget Sound area of Washington State. What made these tribes so wealthy? It wasn't the discovery of oil, although these early people did love to dunk their food in whale oil to give it flavor. It wasn't the discovery of gold or silver, although these early people were talented artists. They would have made gorgeous jewelry from gold and silver (if they had discovered gold or silver!) But, they did not use metal of any kind. They did not have gold statues or iron pots or brass weapons. What made them so rich and famous? Food! An abundance of food and safe, sturdy shelter made them famous. Two thousand years ago , the Puget Sound Indians used to tell visiting tribes that sometimes the river was so packed with salmon you could walk across it on the backs of fish without getting your feet wet. These early people were famous for their "tall tales" - but it was true that the waters were filled with of salmon. Clams were thick on the beaches. There was an abundance of all kinds of fish and seafood. The woods were full of elk and deer and other animals. There were blackberries and raspberries and salmonberries and nuts. Cedar trees were everywhere. The Indians used cedar to build their homes and to carve everything from canoes to eating utensils. Softened cedar bark was used to make shoes, clothing, blankets, toweling. You can see why other Indian tribes, struggling to survive in other parts of the country, would consider the Puget Sound Indians "rich"!

    Extractions: Credit: Henry Franzoni I met Gayle Highpine, a Kootenai Indian, at a monthly meeting of the Western Bigfoot Society. She had published the following paper in a very early Track Record, and gave me permission to reprint it here on the conference. Gayle has traveled extensively among the various reservations and enclaves of North American Indians for the last 30 years. She was a member of A.I.M., the American Indian Movement, during the '70s. A female Indian who was always interested in the old ways, she was and is very interested in learning more about Sasquatch, and she has listened attentively to many medicine men's Sasquatch stories as she traveled from reservation to reservation. I think her paper gives a good basic survey of Native American thought on the subject, and I find her obervation of the apparent division between "Flesh and Blood", thinkers and "Spiritual/Mystical" thinkers highly enlightening. P.S. The Kootenai tribe's home basically is southeast British Columbia. Attitudes Toward Bigfoot in Many North American Cultures By Gayle Highpine "But, special being as he is, I have never heard anyone from a Northwestern tribe suggest that Bigfoot is anything other than a physical being, living in the same physical dimensions as humans and other animals. He eats, he sleeps, he poops, he cares for his family members. However, among many Indians elsewhere in North America... as widely separated at the Hopi, the Sioux, the Iroquois, and the Northern Athabascan Bigfoot is seen more as a sort of supernatural or spirit being, whose appearance to humans is always meant to convey some kind of message."

    Extractions: Teacher Guide/Resource for the Native American Contributions to the Lewis and Clark Expedition Activity Purpose: This assignment provides students with the opportunity to explore the extent to which the Lewis and Clark expedition was a multicultural endeavor. In addition, this activity seeks to expose students to a perspective on the role played by Native Americans in the Lewis and Clark Expedition that is realistic and often overlooked. Objectives: EALR 1.3 – Examine the influence of culture on US, world and Washington State History; Benchmark 3 – Examine and discuss historical contributions to US society of various individuals and groups from different cultural, racial, and linguistic backgrounds. EALR 2.2 – Analyze historical information; Benchmark 3 – organize and record information, and separate relevant from irrelevant information. EALR 2.3 – Synthesize information and reflect on findings; Benchmark 3 – evaluate information and develop a statement of the significance of the findings, defend own analysis. Historical Background: Although this assignment deals primarily with Pacific Northwest history, you may want to discuss with students the experiences of the Expedition with the Mandan and Hidatsa Indians during the winter of 1804-5, as a means of illustrating the types of aid that Indians provided.

    Extractions: Lewis and Clark Among the Indians of the Pacific Northwest -A Curriculum Project for the History of the Pacific Northwest in Washington State Schools. Developed by WSU Department of History PBS Online - Lewis and Clark This website was developed to supplement the PBS documentary film by Ken Burns, Lewis and Clark - The Journey of the Corp of Discovery . This website contains concise descriptions of each Native American tribe encountered by Lewis and Clark, a useful timeline for the journey, and a rather sophisticated tool for searching journal excerpts. Excerpts are included from a variety of the expedition members, although these excerpts are rather severely abridged. Also of benefit are the unedited interviews used by PBS during the filming of the documentary. This site also contains some primary source maps, and a few lesson plans. Discovering Lewis and Clark This site was developed by the University of Montana, and features Professor Henry Fitz's overview of the journey. This website stands out as one of the few which attempts to give significant attention to the Native American perspective of the journey. Various Native American groups have contributed segments to this website, and some, such as the entry by the Salish, could be very useful for incorporating multiple perspectives into a teaching curriculum. Lewis and Clark in North Dakota While this site was developed by the North Dakota Tourism department, and has as its primary emphasis stimulating interest in North Dakota, the site does provide good information about the expedition as a whole. Of particular interest are the personal profiles, several of which describe key Native American figures encountered on the journey. In addition, this site is searchable.

    Extractions: by Kathyrn Lee CHINOOKAN Wasco-Wishram and Watlala The speakers of the Chinookan linguistic stock stretched from the mouth of the Columbia River to around the region of Celilo Falls near The Dalles, Oregon. The Upper Chinook lived on most Chinook territory and were the only Chinook east of The Cascades. The Wasco on the Oregon side of the Columbia and the closely related Wishram on the Washington side were the easternmost of the Upper Chinook. They lived east to Celilo Falls and the Five Mile Rapids area. More anthropological study has been done on the Wishram than the Wasco, and much information about the latter is inferred from the former (French 1961:339). Below the Wasco, from Hood River to The Cascades, was the Watlala (Barry 1927:53) or Hood River of which little is written. The Wasco-Wishram were intermediate between the Plateau and Northwest Coast cultural areas. They maintained trading partnerships with both Northwest Coast groups and those of the Plateau. From the Klamath they obtained slaves that were raided from northern California, from the east they received skins and Plains traits, from the west seafood and shells, and they traded with peoples from the north. As middlemen in a vast trade network they were extremely important. Salmon was the staple item of trade and their main food source. Perhaps the most excellent spot on the Columbia River for these anadromous fish was at Celilo Falls in the midst of the Wasco-Wishram.

    Extractions: Welcome to the Web site with bite The United States recognized the Chinooks as a tribe, the Quinault Tribe challenged that decision and the situation was still not reconciled. Neither the Chinooks in Washington nor the Clatsops in Oregonamong a number of others state- and nation-wideare listed on the Census 2000 tribal maps. The National Lewis and Clark Bicentennial Council will be recognizing a limited number of signature events beginning January 18, 2003 in Charlottesville, Virginia at Monticello, the home of Thomas Jefferson, the President who sent out the Expedition. In south Pacific County, where the Lewis and Clark party first arrived at the Pacific Ocean in November 1805 and stayed for a time, a second event has been authorized near Chinook. In Clatsop County, Oregon, plans are also being made. Pierre Cruzatte Lewis and Clark Expedition Musician Pierre Cruzatte was the Lewis and Clark Expedition's main navigator, and thus had a critical function on the journey. He was the prized fiddler, the one the journals mention most frequently. The journals only cite George Gibson, the other fiddler, a few times. Cruzatte played roles in a number of critical incidents. Once he threatened to shoot Toussaint Charbonneau when Charbonneau panicked and let go of the rudder of one of the pirogues. Had Cruzatte not forced Charbonneau to regain control, many people could have died, and the expedition would have lost essential supplies. In a later incident, Cruzatte also accidently shot Lewis, nearly killing him just a few months before the end of the journey.
