That was the name the Seminoles had referred to themselves as because of their refusal to be conquered and converted by the "white man". The Seminole Tribe has long had a unique history with both the land of the Southeastern United States, and with the government of the United States. Their relationship with the land has been drastically altered as the result of three Seminole wars which displaced and relocated the Seminole tribe. As a result of the persecution by President Andrew Jackson, members from a variety of tribes in the Southeast United States began migrating into Spanish Florida to seek refuge.

  • Gender Roles In Robbie Ethridge's 'Creek Country'

    774 Words  | 4 Pages

    The usage of the land was important for the Creek people, and within this importance was political, commercial, and combative power. The text illustrates this in chapter four by saying, “They also had equally strong practical bonds to the land formed by their subsistence and commercial needs and certain political imperatives” (Ethridge, 54). The Creek Indians lived in river valleys, and therefore forged their towns and villages to make the most out of the natural resources that were available in that kind of landscape. An image of this kind of landscape may be seen by reading the text, “The land rises from the river with sublime magnificence…present to view a delightful varied landscape…” (Ethridge, 55).

  • Gender Roles In Native Americans

    728 Words  | 3 Pages

    Although Native Americans are characterized as both civilized and uncivilized in module one readings, their lifestyles and culture are observed to be civilized more often than not. The separate and distinct duties of men and women (Sigard, 1632) reveal a society that has defined roles and expectations based on gender. There are customs related to courtship (Le Clercq, 1691) that are similar to European cultures. Marriage was a recognized union amongst Native Americans, although not necessarily viewed as a serious, lifelong commitment like the Europeans (Heckewelder, 1819). Related to gender roles in Native American culture, Sigard writes of the Huron people that “Just as the men have their special occupation and understand wherein a man’s duty consists, so also the women and girls keep their place and perform quietly their little tasks and functions of service”.
