    Extractions: Aadizookaan means (in Anishinaabemowin , or Ojibwe language) "a traditional story", what anthros and others seem to like calling legends or myths. These are or in their original, were often sacred. Those represnt large themes of human existence: where we came from, how we should live, reconcilliation to the tragedies of life, thankfulness There are smaller stories: teaching, humorous, answering "Why?" questions about natural phenomena and behavior. Finally, traditional indigenous peoples had no TV, no books; stories were entertainment, too. TO THOSE WHO TRANSCRIBE NATIVE MYTHS: Our myths appear popular as NuAge web page fillers. Native myths, as opposed to tall tales and little stories for children, are not entertainment. It is important that you cite the source from which you transcribed it, the collector or non-Indian reteller-translator of the myth, and if given, the original teller. And, of course, the tribe. I think Native myths are meaningless removed from cultural context, but if there is any educational value to them, they must be identified with a specific people, time, and place. Some retellers are reliable. Others sanitize and restructure stories, making them worthless as a means to learn about a culture a kind of racism, where retellers believe Native myths (which are often owned by specific individuals or families) are merely primitive raw material for their own literary efforts, often crude and condescending. There are

    Extractions: Teaching about Native American religion is a challenging task to tackle with students at any level, if only because the Indian systems of belief and ritual were as legion as the tribes inhabiting North America. So let's begin by trimming down that bewildering variety to manageable proportions with three glittering generalizations (which might, with luck, prove more useful than misleading). First, at the time of European contact, all but the simplest indigenous cultures in North America had developed coherent religious systems that included cosmologiescreation myths, transmitted orally from one generation to the next, which purported to explain how those societies had come into being. Second, most native peoples worshiped an all-powerful, all-knowing Creator or "Master Spirit" (a being that assumed a variety of forms and both genders). They also venerated or placated a host of lesser supernatural entities, including an evil god who dealt out disaster, suffering, and death. Third and finally, the members of most tribes believed in the immortality of the human soul and an afterlife, the main feature of which was the abundance of every good thing that made earthly life secure and pleasant.

Introduction Your friends have joined you for a walk along the Nashua River (or Nashaway) in Fitchburg, Massachusetts. As you walk by the clear, flowing stream, a huge bald eagle lands in a towering tree nearby. "Look around, boys and girls," announces the Eagle. "The River, known as the River With the Pebbled Bottom, has changed over the past 600 years. I have seen this forest when the Nashaway or Nipmuc Tribe called this home." "Wow," your excited friends respond. "Could you bring us back to that time so that we can see what it was like for our Native Americans?" "Hop onto my back," invites the Eagle, "and hold on tightly. We will travel around the United States, and I will help you learn about some of the Native Americans who lived in our country. You will learn the ways of the First People." The Task Your team of second graders have been selected to become the "Eagle Eye" news team from Station WCOC-TV.

    Extractions: AND T HEIR C RAFTS he Native American communities surrounding Grand Canyon actively maintain their ancient cultures and traditions. Their cultures have long been associated with their exquisite but functional crafts, which reflect their close ties with nature. Fine collectibles created by native artisans began to be marketed to outsiders in the 1880s, through places such as Hubbell Trading Post on the Navajo Reservation (still an active trading post, famous for its Ganado red chief blankets). Any of the five reservations close to Grand Canyon make a fascinating day trip for adventurous travelers. Most reservations welcome visitors who are interested in learning about their culture and who show respect for privacy and property. See Grand Canyon Guided Tours for more information. Havasupai The Hualapai live just southwest of Grand Canyon. Farming, cattle-raising, forestry, and tourism are their primary occupations. Their celebrated basketry has evolved from their hunter-gatherer tradition. They are also known for their exquisite dolls. Contact Hualapai Tribal Council, P.O. Box 168, Peach Springs, AZ 86434; (520) 769-2216. Kaibab-Paiute The Hopi are peaceful farmers directly descended from the prehistoric Ancestral Puebloans (Anasazi); their lifestyle on the mesas is typical of Pueblo peoples. Considered the most adept dry-farmers in the world, they grow corn in irrigated plots at the base of the mesas. The small Hopi Reservation is concentrated in pueblos on three high mesas in northeastern Arizona and is almost completely surrounded by the Navajo Reservation. Old Oraibi has been occupied since a.d. 1150, making it one of America's oldest continuously inhabited villages. The Hopi are renowned for their silverwork, elaborately designed pottery, and kachina dolls, which are wooden ceremonial spirit dolls.

    Extractions: Tucson, Arizona The American Indian Language Development Institute (AILDI) was founded in 1978 by Hualapai tribal educators, Native American parents, and experts in linguistics to help several Southwest tribes develop a written language and curriculum materials that reflect attention to Native American students' heritage, needs, and learning styles. According to the current project co-director, "It started simply to meet the needs of the community and to develop Native-language materials. The 1970s were a period of growth of Native American languages throughout our country. There needed to be materials written specifically for Native Americans." Housed at different campuses during its first 12 years, this four-week summer program has been held since 1989 at the University of Arizona (UA) in Tucson, where the university is hoping to institutionalize it. AILDI enrolls about 100 students each summer. Leadership of AILDI continues to include Native Americans, both as professional educators and as language and cultural specialists, and national Native and non-Native experts on indigenous languages and cultures. Currently, the institute is directed by two professors from the University of Arizonaone a professional linguist who is a member of the Tohono O'Odham tribe and the other a non-Native specialist in Native education programs. One of the founders, a woman from the Hualapai tribe, lectures at the institute every summer and manages a rural district and a Title VII-supported Native language curriculum development project during the school year. Originally designed for Native American educators, today AILDI accepts both Native and non-Native educatorsadministrators, aides, and teacherswho work with Native American students.

(See further discussion below). Canadians now generally use the term First Nations to refer to Native Americans. In Alaska , because of legal use in the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act ( ANSCA ) and because of the presence of the Inuit Yupik , and Aleut peoples, the term Alaskan Native predominates.

Footsteps Journal Geography and Climate The geography of the Southwest is mainly comprised of the Colorado Plateau, which is surrounded by mountains and deserts (see the section for desert information.) To the southwest, Arizona’s terrain drops from the 2,000 ft (600 mt) Mogollon (pronounced mug-ee-own) Rim down to the Arizona-Sonora Desert. To the southeast, in New Mexico lie the Rocky Mountains. To the northwest in Utah is the Great Basin Desert. In the northeastern corner of Utah are once again the Rocky Mountains. This region includes the unusual Uinta Mountains, one of the few U.S. mountain ranges that run from west to east. To the northeast of the Plateau in southwestern Colorado are the San Juan Mountains and further east are the Eastern Plains and the lowest elevation in Colorado at 3,400 ft (1,020 mt.)

    Extractions: Native American Women T his gallery presents daily life for late-19th-century Native American women of the plains and the desert southwest. Multiple tribes are pictured, so the story is a composite of early Native American life. Similarities in daily activities for women across tribes are presented. The gallery highlights the nation-building roles of women and thus favors women-in-action images. Consequently, photographic qualities are sometimes secondary to the activity being shown. A photographic portrayal of Native American life before the arrival of white culture is necessarily contaminated with evidence of Euro-American culture. Images show cotton, iron kettles, straw hats and umbrellas. Nevertheless, the activities of Native Americans, which this gallery emphasizes, can give us insightful glimpses into early American life.
