Extractions: Are you trapped in a Frame? LIBERATE YOURSELF! You'll have access to the entire site! A Little Native American History The history of the Americas did not begin in 1492. By the time Christopher Columbus arrived in what he thought was a group of islands off the coast of India, the land from what is now Alaska, south to the tip of the South American continent, was already inhabited - and had been for at least 10,000 years. For some time, anthropologists have concluded that Native Americans are of Asiatic or Mongoloid descent, having arrived on the continents across a land bridge from Asia. There are also some anthropologists and archealogists that believe mankind developed in the Americans and then used the land bridge to populate the rest of the world. For the purpose of this web page, we will focus on the fact that the Americas were populated before Lief Erikson or Columbus arrived and leave the "who came first" question to others. When explorers realized a "New World" had been found, there were more than 600 tribes spread through the area now designated the continental United States. Communication between tribes was difficult or, in some cases, impossible because more than 300 distinctly different languages were in use. The population at the time of "discovery" is extremely underestimated at around one million, with most of the natives living along or near the eastern seaboard.

Although it is a quick and easy method, we feel that it a very impersonal service. From the onset, we decided to keep the relationship on a personal footing. Most importantly, because of the very nature of Native American art - we did not want to let technology diminish and overshadow the special qualities of each handmade art piece.

Extractions: Entries Publication Data Advisory Board Contributors ... World Civilizations Reader's Companion to U.S. Women's History There are over 450 Native nations in the United States, each with its own distinct language, culture, history, and political structure. Tribal populations range from over 250,000 in the great Navajo Nation to less than one hundred in some Native nations. Land bases range from California rancherias smaller than five acres to millions of acres of land held by some tribes. The roles of Native American women, therefore, are extremely diverse, but some similarities prevail. Creation, power, and sexuality are integrally related concepts in Native American societies. The world is shaped by powerful beings like Wenebojo, the offspring of a woman impregnated by the wind (a Chippewa tradition). The Iroquois world was shaped by twin brothers, one creative and one destructive. A woman was impregnated by the breath of a spirit in the world above this one. She fell to this world through a hole and gave birth to a daughter who in turn gave birth to twin sons. One was born in the normal way. He created the good things of the world, such as food and medicine. The other burst out of his mother's side, killing her. He created weeds, disease, and harmful animals and insects. Among the Keresan-speaking Pueblo people of the Southwest, the creation of the world is the work of Sus'sistinako, or Thinking Woman, whose thoughts became reality. Power can be defined as the ability to influence events by maintaining proper respect and relationships with beings who have certain attributes. It is based on notions of reciprocity. Power manifests itself in things that are unusual, beyond the ordinary experience.

The Librarys collections of books published in the British colonies of America before this time fall into our Early Printed Collections The British Library has one of the richest collections of American printed books outside of the United States. The collections cover all the humanities and social sciences disciplines and are particularly strong in material published by American university presses, learned societies, museums and research libraries. The Library also holds substantial collections of imaginative literature including material published by small and experimental presses, and little magazines. Many of the significant gaps in the collections from the period 1880-1950 have been filled through a large-scale microfilming programme, sponsored by the American Trust for the British Library. The collections contain an extensive range of both primary and secondary materials published in the United States relating to American history. These include many rare American gazetteers, almanacs and annuals; travel writing; accounts of the exploration of North America; early descriptions of the topography of the country; contact with Native Americans, and later works on the growth of American cities and society. There is a good selection of contemporary and first-hand accounts of significant events in American history such as the settlement of the West, the Civil War, the Gold Rush, and an extensive range of material relating to United States regional history, such as local and county histories and publications by American state historical societies.

Extractions: The Regions of the United States New England The Mid-Atlantic The South The Midwest ... The West Americans often speak of their country as one of several large regions. These regions are cultural units rather than governmental units formed by history and geography and shaped by the economics, literature and folkways that all the parts of a region share. What makes one region different from another? A region's multicultural heritage as well as distinct demographic characteristics like age and occupation make regions different and special. Within several regions, language is used differently and there are strong dialects. There are also differences in outlook and attitude based on geography. E-Texts Megalopolis The Bypassed East New England New England - including Harvard, Yale, Brown, Dartmouth, Wellesley, Smith, Williams, Amherst, and Wesleyan - is unequaled by any other region. America's first college, Harvard, was founded at Cambridge, Massachusetts in 1636. Without, however, large expanses of rich farmland or a mild climate, generations of exasperated New England farmers declared that the chief product of their land was stones. By 1750, many settlers had turned from farming to other pursuits. In their business dealings, New Englanders gained a reputation for hard work, shrewdness, thrift, and ingenuity.

Extractions: Native American Before I begin this article, I would like to extend my thanks to the creators of the Internet. It was there that I found my research on the topic that follows, and it is to the people who wrote the various articles and references that credit for this article should go to. I merely put two and two together for the benefit of those reading this now. The history surrounding the followers of our proud faith is one of two shades; the truth and the lie. The lies surrounding our history have been spread to every corner of the globe; that we were and are (?) barbarians, no better than animals. The truth is that although there were certain parts of history that do show that some of our followers were ruthless and brutal (such as the Ottoman Empire), this is not unlike every nation and country in the world. And we have a much more worthy things to focus on. Before the West declared themselves the great scientists of the earth, before their own Renaissance, Muslims already were making discoveries in science that took the West hundreds of years to even begin to imagine. What a shame that people in Europe were being persecuted by the Church for their suppositions that the earth was round; they should have come to the Islamic world- an Afghan Muslim had proved that in 793 C.E.! However, the studying of the universe brought forth more questions, and more curiosity. The Muslims in West Africa were so intrigued by what was on the other side of the Great Sea, that they began their expeditions into the great unknown. Early reports of these travels are sketchy, but we can be sure that they crossed the Atlantic by 889 C.E.
