Miagao during the 1700 's was a very troubled community. Tumagbok River was used by the Muslim marauders as an entry point to the town. They were barbaric, yes, those Muslims were. They were so savagely cruel that the first two churches where I usually go when I feel down and alone were burnt down into ashes. Thereafter, our community decided to construct a bigger church. It was a delicate process. Our church was made of stones, tabriya stones, a carbonaceous sandstone. These materials were gouged out at Sitio Tubog in neighbouring San Joaquin town and in the highlands of the town of Igbaras. A certain Matias from Igbaras first masterminded the construction but when he was later called to supervised the construction of his town 's church, a certain Aquino from Alimodian replaced him. This was overseen by Fray Gonzales up to its completion. It was built at the top of a hill overlooking our very own Tumagbok River. This was a clever idea since we may be able to see if ever there were intruders coming near ashore in our town. It helped the town defend itself from the frequent raids by Molo pirates in the 16th to 19th century that plagued many neighboring towns and caused whole town-centers to relocate towards Iloilo City. Thus, Miagao and its surrounding area grew without hindrance and with little outside influence. The church and its lookout tower were also set up to secure the town and its people against forays by the native Moro people. For that reason, it has

As a Puerto Rican citizen, I do not fit in to that part of our history very much. In the late 1800’s, Puerto Rico was not a U.S. territory; instead, it formed part of the Spanish empire. It wasn’t until the end of the Spanish-American war that Puerto Rico became a U.S. property. Even then (after being conquered by the U.S. in the year 1900), the common American belief was that Puerto Ricans weren’t inherently equal any more than they thought that blacks were racially equal to whites. Rather, because the American public wouldn’t consent to treating Puerto Ricans as equals or granting them citizenship, the U.S. had trouble keeping the island as an imperial possession.

Squanto, also known as Tisquantum, a Native American of the Paxuet tribe. Squanto acted as an interpreter and guide to the pilgrim settlers during their first winter in the new world. Torn from his world and into another. Squanto became an English speaking native, Squanto became very fluent in English speaking when he returned from across the ocean “New England”.

During the French and Britain‘s conflicts, the Iroquois Confederacy consisted of six nations: the Mohawk, Seneca, Cayuga, Onondaga, Oneida, and Tuscarora. Although, I’m sure all of these nations have interesting backgrounds, I’ve decided to find out more about the Cayuga nation. The Cayuga nation has a very interesting culture, which includes the food they eat and the religion they’ve chosen to practice. The main foods involved in the Cayuga diet included corn, beans, and squash, also known as, the Three Sisters.
The Shoshone was a Native American tribe in the western Great Basin in the United States. This tribe was spread into the north and east Idaho and Wyoming. The Shoshone religion was Shoshone rituals. Their population was approximately 8000 members at first, but their population began to increase about 20,000 members. There were three classes in Shoshone tribe, which were the chief and shaman, trading partners, and the servants.
In the 1500’s the Comanche tribe was originally merged with the Shoshone tribe in the Upper reaches of the Platte River. Only when the Europeans arrived did they split up. Around 1700 the Comanches acquired horses and started moving south from the Shoshone tribe. They made a stop in the Central plains before continuing on to an area that extended from the Arkansas River to Central Texas. As the tribe migrated south their population began to increase dramatically due to an abundance of food and an influx of Shoshone tribe members.
California was born in the middle of many issues of conflict. Crisis over slavery, political legitimacy, and conflict over land, labor, race and ethnicity ( Competing Vision 132 ).During the mid 1800’s California saw many transformations, some positive some negative. There was a slow reservations development for Indians, but a better established land ownership. With certain political figures, who rallied to remove laws, which discriminated against African Americans and rather high religious tolerance, California was taking a distinct shape.

For living in a time period where there was not a lot of technological advances that would help them build what they wanted at a faster pace, they had to learn to work with what they had. They also had to learn how to work with materials to be able to make the magnificent and amazing temples, that they are known for. “ The general temple-pyramid consisted of a platform, a long, broad, steep double staircase going up the center, with balustrades going up the sides of the steps. The Aztecs used sculpted stone blocks and skulls to decorate the platform and the ends of the balustrades” (General Construction of Pyramid-Temples). The Aztecs used and made platforms and tools that would help them make their temples better and better each time.
The time period for which the colonial period lasted in America is debatable. Some would say it started when Christopher Columbus discovered America and ended when the Treaty of Paris was signed, however in this essay the colonial period started with the founding of Jamestown (1607) and ended when the Declaration of Independence was signed (1776). During this time period Native American culture was being tampered with, and two very different forms of government, puritanism and rationalism, were being established Native American culture was around before America was even discovered in 1492, and since then it has only lost its originality. Before colonists came to America Native Americans could live in peace and focus only on their own traditions
