Other Sites Terre Haute - A history and a guide This is my history and guide to my adopted home - Terre Haute, Indiana. Prehistory - the Glaciers Why is Indiana and much of the surrounding states so flat? The Earth has undergone many ice ages, the first being around 700,000 years ago. The last was about 20,000 years ago. Much of Indiana was covered by a glacial ice sheet many hundreds of metres thick. This last great glacier is called the Wisconsin Glacier. The glaciers had a scouring effect on the land and this great expanse of ice carried much sediment with it. When the ice retreated northwards, ending about 10,000 BC, the sediment, sometimes hundreds of feet thick, filled in many of the valleys that were once in the region and leaving behind it many areas that became bogs. The crushing weight of the ice only got around two thirds of the way into Indiana before it retreated, this explains the flatness of the north of the state while the south has rolling hills. The huge amount of sediment deposited by the glacier, which in places is hundreds of feet deep, also explains the rich farming land that makes up much of Indiana. Extent of the Wisconsin glacier - 18,000 years ago

http://www.valhalla-lodge.com/beothuk.htm
Who were the Beothuk Indians? The Beothuk Indians were the original inhabitants of the island of Newfoundland. Upon first European contact in the 16th Century, there were about 2,000 Beothuk people. By the early 19th Century, however, they had been completely wiped out. The Beothuk were alternatively known as the Ulno, "the Skraellings"(by the Norse) and the Red Indians. They spoke a unique language which may have been remotely connected to the Algonquin tongue spoken on the mainland. Not much is known about the culture of the Beothuk people due to their isolation. Rather than being farmers, as were many of the mainland tribes, the Beothuk were hunters, with the main target being the Caribou. These were to be found in large numbers on the island. The coastline also presented many opportunities to acquire food, with fish, seals and other seafood in plentiful supply. As a result the Beothuk became very skilled fishermen and adept at manoeuvring their canoes while using their spears to harpoon their prey. When the Europeans and the Beothuk tribal enemies the Micmac began to inhabit coastal areas, however, the Beothuk fled into the interior of the island. But here the food supplies were not nearly as plentiful. In fact, many Beothuk began to die of starvation. The Beothuk were known as Red Indians primarily because of their extensive use of red ochre. A greasy mixture of red ochre would be applied to the face and bodyalong with the hair as well as any personal possessions a person had. In fact it is believed that the term ‘redskin’ as used to apply to all Native American Indians originated at the time of contact between Europeans and the Beothuk.

American Council of Learned Societies Committee on Native American Languages Collection
(80 linear feet) American Philosophical Society 105 South Fifth Street * Philadelphia, PA 19106-3386 Table of contents Abstract Formed in 1927 under the initiative of Franz Boas, Edward Sapir, and other academic linguists, the Committee on Native American Languages of the American Council of Learned Societies was charged with documenting the endangered languages of indigenous Americans. The Collection of the American Council of Learned Socities Committee of Native American Languages is one of the largest and most significant primary resources for study of the indigenous languages of North America. Beginning with the creation of the Committee in 1927, and periodically added to since by the APS, the collection has grown to over 80 linear feet of material representing at least 166 languages and dialects from the United States, Canada, and Mexico. The formats range from field notes and ethnographic texts to slip files, vocabularies, lexica, and grammars, and dozens of linguists and Native consultants are represented. Although most of the material was collected in the 1920s and 1930s, a signficant number of items have been added that extends the range of dates represented both backward and forward.

    Austronesian people began to arrive in Taiwan around 6,000 years ago, giving rise to the indigenous culture that still exists in the Central Mountain Range and along the eastern coastal areas of the island. Among the 19 tribes remaining nowadays, nine have managed to preserve their distinct customs and languages relatively well. These nine tribes are the Saisiat, Atayal, Tsou, Bunun, Ami, Rukai, Puyuma, Paiwan, and Yami. The brand-new Shung Ye Museum of Formosan Aborigines houses a refined collection of 1,000 artifacts, mainly from these nine tribes. First of its kind in Taiwan, the museum is also dedicated to preserving indigenous culture and enhancing understanding among the different ethnic groups.

    Over time, the Beothuk replaced their stone tools and weapons with iron. Elements of Beothuk material culture were superior to comparable European technology. By the 17th century, Beothuk groups were building more substantial housing structures. The caribou spirit was honoured by the Beothuk. There was political and social organization to Beothuk life.

    Beothuk material culture developed out of the preceding Little Passage complex , which is to say that very early Beothuk culture is just Little Passage culture with the addition of European materials. Beothuk culture changed considerably over time as a result of those new materials. For example, when Europeans first arrived in this part of the world, the Beothuks made stone points to tip their arrows, spears and harpoons as well as stone knives and stone hide

    The Beothuks had the unusual opportunity to acquire such goods as metal cutting and piercing tools without having to exchange furs for them.
    Lacking the contacts with traders, missionaries and Indian agents who were characteristic of the mainland experience, the Beothuks became increasingly isolated.
    By the beginning of the 19th century, the Beothuks were reduced to a small refugee population living along the Exploits River system.
    The Beothuks The Beothuks are the aboriginal people of the island of Newfoundland. They were Algonkian-speaking hunter-gatherers who probably numbered less than a thousand people at the time of European contact. The Beothuks are the descendants of a Recent Indian culture called the Little Passage Complex.

The arrival of migratory European fishermen in the 16th century may have provided new opportunities for the Beothuks. These fishermen erected stages, flakes and wharves during the summer fishery, but after they left the island to return to Europe, they left behind nails, lost fish hooks, and scraps of iron and kettle. Evidence from a number of Beothuk sites indicates that the Beothuks picked up these metal objects and reworked them into arrowheads, lance points, harpoon end blades, awls and hide scrapers.

    Native Americans (also Indians American Indians , or Red Indians ) are indigenous peoples and descendants of those who lived in the Americas prior to the European colonization . Many of these tribally affiliated ethnic groups endure today as political communities. The name "Indians" was bestowed by Christopher Columbus , who mistakenly believed that the places he found them were among the islands in Southeast Asia known to Europeans as the Indies. (See further discussion below). Canadians generally use the term First Nations to refer to Native Americans; the Canadian Indian Act , however, which defines the rights of recognized First Nations, refers to them as Indians. 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. In Canada, however, Inuit are not considered First Nations (neither are Métis The preferred term in Latin America for the original inhabitants of the Central and South America is Indigenous peoples .
