    Extractions: Genetic Studies conducted on full-blooded indigenous populations from North, Central, and South America (the New World) has identified a limited number of shared genetic markers. These markers have very specific modes of inheritance and are relatively unique to populations with Native American Ancestry. There are 2 types of inheritance pattern categories that these markers follow, either a directly paternal linkage (i.e., male-to-male-to-male, etc.) or a directly maternal linkage (i.e., female-to-all her children. Then, only the female children pass it on to all their children)

    Extractions: The Iroquois League, or Five Nations of the Iroquois, was the most powerful Indian military alliance in the eastern part of North America and probably the most successful alliance of any kind between so many important tribes. There were three principal clans - deer, turtle and wolf - existing within the five nations, and this was probably an important unifying factor in the league. The league was formed in the late sixteenth century at which time the five nations had a combined population of 7000. What a confusion of facts. After reading through several texts and visiting many sites on the web, it has become clear as mud that everyone has a differing opinion about the relationships between these three tribes. We will therefore include them all on one page and maybe through your wanderings, you will discover the truth. If you do, please let us in on it. The Creek were originally one of the dominant tribes in the mid-south and later became known as one of the Five Civilized Tribes. They were known in their own language as Muskoke or Muskoge, by the Shawnee as Humaskogi, by the Delaware as Masquachki and by the British as the Ochese Creek Indians, hence the present name. Their name has been adapted for that of their linguistic group and for Muskogee, Oklahoma, which was a major city of the Creek Nation in Indian territory.

    Extractions: In the summer of 1877, bands of the Nez Perce Tribe (Nee-Me-Poo) defended themselves in a protracted military campaign with the United States government. The campaign lasted four months, beginning in Oregon and Idaho, and culminating with the surrender of many Nez Perce at the Bear's Paw Battlefield in Northern Montana. The route the Nez Perce followed from Oregon to Montana was designated as the Nez Perce National Historic Trail (Public Law 99-445) by the U.S. Congress on October 6, 1986.

    Extractions: He ultimately became famous as "Chief Joseph," but the man born in the Wallowa Valley in what is now northeastern Oregon was also called Joseph and Joseph the Younger, as his father had been baptized with that Christian name before Chief Joseph was born. However, at the time of his birth in 1840, the Nez Pierce (nay pehr-SAY) called Chief Joseph, Hin-mah-too-yah-lat-kekt, which translates as "thunder coming up over the land from the water" or "thunder coming down the mountain." As a tribe, the Nez Perce had been on good terms with white Europeans after Lewis and Clark opened their lands in Idaho and Washington to exploration. Chief Joseph's father, Old Joseph, signed an 1855 treaty that guaranteed the Nez Perce the rights to their homelands, and, as Old Joseph also converted to Christianity, Chief Joseph attended school in a Christian mission. But after a gold rush that identified Nez Perce lands as prime mining territory, the white government created a second treaty in 1863 that took most of the traditional lands away from the Nez Perce, including their beloved Wallowa Valley. The tribe was left with a tenth of what had originally been promised them, all in Idaho. Old Joseph always insisted his people never agreed to any conditions of this treaty and turned away from cooperation with whites, refusing to acknowledge and sign the treaty, burning his American flag and Bible and refusing to move his people. Upon his father's death, Chief Joseph took his place as chief and his own strong feelings about the validity of the second treaty would shape his life and change the interaction between the Nez Perce and whites forever. He became highly resistant to government attempts to corral his people onto a reservation even as white settlers streamed into the territory.

Free Stuff FAQS Cool Places Services Privacy Questions? Native American history is a rich and varied history. Each tribe has its own history, with its own version of how the tribe and the world came about. In the west, most tribes lived near the mountains for summer hunting trips, and in valleys or on plains during the winter to avoid the deep snows and bitter cold in the mountains. Most of the history of native americans that the ordinary person knows about is from the movies, and literature. The rich culture that these tribes had is not as well known as the stereotypical native from movies. Buffalo Bill Cody became a friend to many native americans, mostly from the plains tribe, which has caused most people to think of the palins tribes as your typical native.

    Extractions: Introduction African Americans Women Native Americans Voters Today It's often overlooked that self-government in America was practiced by Native Americans, long before the formation of the United States government. Today, voting is our primary means of group decision making, of enacting legislation, and choosing leaders. Traditional decision making among native Americans differed from this system (and sometimes differed greatly from group to group). Here, Verne Ray describes the Nez Perce's form of government and illustrates how it changed between times of war and peace: Tribal organization was present among the Nez Perce since a tribal council whose decisions were binding upon all members of the group was coupled with an elective war chief with wide powers. Yet even here each village had its individual peace time chief with authority limited to his own village and during peace there was little relationship among villages. The tribal council was a gathering of select members of the tribe who convened to make decisions and elect chiefs. In addition to the political duties of these gatherings, tribal councils also had a certain ceremonial significance:
