Native Americans (also Indians American Indians First Nations Alaskan Natives Red Indians , or Indigneous Peoples of America ) refers to the indigenous inhabitants of Americas prior to the European colonization , and their modern descendants. This term comprises a large number of distinct tribes states , and ethnic groups , many of them still enduring as political communities. Depending on the context, the terms "Indian" or "Native American" may or may not include the " Eskimos Inuit Yupik , and Aleut peoples), which are very distinctive in culture and genetics from the other groups. The terms may also be construed to include or exclude the Canadian Métis Native Americans officially make up the majority of the population in Bolivia Peru and Guatemala and are a significant element in most other former Spanish colonies, with the exception of Costa Rica Cuba Argentina Dominican Republic and Uruguay .

  • Mohawk (Iroquois)
    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.
  • Mohican (Mohegan) and/or Mahican
    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.
  • Creek
    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.

INTRODUCTION We believe that the original inhabitants of North America arrived thousands of years ago. Many names have been used to describe these people. We will refer to them as Native Americans or Indians. During the last several hundred years, these Native Americans have suffered many hard times, often, unfortunately, when coming into contact with the "newly" arrived European Immigrants. As you explore the various activities included in this webquest, try to get a sense of where the Indians were in their beliefs, what caused differences in their lifestyles, how important the earth and nature were to them, and their interactions with other groups of people.
YOUR TASK
During your Native American study you will explore various areas of the Indian culture from the past.

WIGWAM PHOTOS NATIVE HOUSING In and north of the United States there were some twenty well-defined types of native dwellings, varying from the mere brush shelter to the five-storied pueblo. In the eastern United States and adjacent parts of Canada the prevailing type was that commonly known under the Algonkian name of wigwam, of wagon-top shape, with perpendicular sides and ends and rounded roof, and constructed of stout poles set in the ground and covered with bark or with mats woven of grass or rushes. Doorways at each end served also as windows, and openings in the roof allowed the smoke to escape. Not even pueblo architecture had evolved a chimney. In general the houses were communal, several closely related families occupying the same dwelling.

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.

    Quotations on
    Protecting our Environment
    American Indians have traditionally stressed the close relationship between man and nature and the need to protect the Earth and the Earth's environment. Here are some quotations on that subject.
    Fools Crow, Ceremonial Chief of the Teton Sioux
    The survival of the world depends upon our sharing what we have and working together. if we don't, the whole world will die. First the planet, and next the people.
    Qwatsinas [Hereditary Chief Edward Moody], Nuxalk Nation
    "We must protect the forests for our children, grandchildren and children yet to be born. We must protect the forests for those who can't speak for themselves such as the birds, animals, fish and trees."
    Chief Luther Standing Bear - Lakota Sioux:
    "I am going to venture that the man who sat on the ground in his tipi meditating on life and its meaning, accepting the kinship of all creatures, and acknowledging unity with the universe of things, was infusing into his being the true essence of civilization." "The elders were wise. They knew that man's heart, away from nature, becomes hard; they knew that lack of respect for growing, living things, soon led to lack of respect for humans, too."

    NATIVE AMERICAN
    Most American Indians believed strongly that it was their responsibility to guide their children in every aspect of tribal life: religion, social customs, hunting and domestic activities. History records that both Indian parents spent intense periods of time with their young.
    Today, time and circumstances generally do not dictate the same level of parental training, but quality time with parent and child remains essential for close and loving relationships in any family.
    Many of the following stories are strongly allegorical and meant to help bind the Indian family relationship or to impart to the child some important moral lesson. The Ohiyesha histories of the great Indian Chieftains serve to demonstrate the strengths of character and sense of family dedication found in Native American culture.
    The YMCA Y-Indian Programs are designed to help build a strong family relationship, and they look to this Native American heritage for their message.

    The Seneca Nation By Paul Frederick
    SALAMANCA, NY - The City of Salamanca lies within the Allegheny Reservation of the Seneca Nation of Indians. It is the only city in the U.S. to lie entirely within native lands. The Seneca Nation is one of the original five Native nations of the Haudensaunee ("People of the Longhouse"). This confederacy is believed to have formed in 1570. After many years of negotiation the Tuscarora Nation joined the confederacy in 1729. The French called the confederacy members (collectively) the Iroquois, the British named them the Six Nations. Haudensaunee territory spread from northern Canada to South Carolina and from the Hudson River west to the Mississippi. A few acres remain of the original acreage designated the "Cornplanter Grant" in Pennsylvania, south of the New York State border on the west bank of the Allegheny River. The Kinzua Reservoir also inundated this land, which was given to Chief Cornplanter in 1795 by a grateful Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in return for his aid in the American Revolution. The majority of the 600 living heirs of Cornplanter are now enrolled members of the Seneca nation, which had a total population of 6,304 as of May, 1992. Seneca people also reside on a number of other reservations and urban areas in the U.S. and Canada. The Tonawanda Band of Senecas occupy the Tonawanda Reservation near Akron, NY. There is also the Seneca-Cayuga Tribe of Oklahoma, which occupies lands allotted in the northeastern part of Oklahoma.

    Who Are the Woodland Tribes?
    Woodland Indian tribes lived east of the Plains Indians and extended from New England and Maryland to the Great Lakes Area and into Maine . They lived in the forests near lakes or streams, which is why they're called Eastern Woodland Indians . Their food, shelter, clothing, weapons and tools came from the forest. The Iroquois , Mound Builders, Algonquian and Shawnee are a few Woodland tribes.
    Woodland Tribes - Shelter
    Woodland tribes lived in wigwams and longhouses. Wigwams are round, wooden-framed structures, covered in bark. Only one family lived in a wigwam. Longhouses are made the same way as wigwams except they are rectangular, instead of round. They have a long hallway with rooms on both sides. Several related families shared a longhouse.
    Woodland Tribes - Food
    Living in the woods meant there were plenty of resources , including food. Woodland tribes were hunters and gatherers . They hunted bear , moose and bison, and were effective fishermen . They also ate beavers , raccoons, rabbits, corn, beans and berries. Woodland Indians grew squash, pumpkins and melons. Tribes in the

    The Catawba Indians used a tea of arnica roots for treating back pains. The Dispensary of the United States (22nd edition) states this drug can be dangerous if taken internally and that it has caused severe and even fatal poisoning. Also used as a wash to treat sprains and bruises.

    Introduction Task Process Resources ... Conclusion Introduction: Many stereotypes exist concerning American Indians. Contrary to popular belief, not all Indians or Native Americans lived in teepees and rode on painted horses as they are depicted in many of the old western movies. Native Americans from different parts of what is now the United States lived in many different tribes. Each tribe had their own culture: customs, language, myths, and religion. In this WebQuest, you will read and learn about four Native American tribes from different parts of the United States: North, South, East, and West.
    The Task: Your task is to compare and contrast four different tribes which were indigenous to the United States: the Tlingit of the Northwest Coast, the Hopi of the Southwest, the Iroquois of the Northeast, and the Lakota of the Western plains. As you read about the customs of each tribe you will search for information concerning important foods, myths or spiritual beliefs, and important plants and/or animals. This information will be recorded on a chart. You will also note and record the biome where each tribe lives and draw conclusions as to how the biome affects the culture of each tribe. Using the information from your chart and other data from your research, you will prepare a multimedia presentation.
