Nadowesmen And The Sioux Indians

Mandan men were hunters and sometimes went to war to protect their families. Only men became Mandan chiefs. Mandan women were farmers and did most of the child care and cooking. The Mandans frequently fought with the Dakota Sioux and Shoshones. The Mandan people have contributed to modern America by making beautiful artwork, having ceremonies, clothing and helping Lewis and Clark.

Prior to the colonization of the Americas, the buffalo was crucially important to the Sioux life until its near extinction. Nearly every activity, for instance, hunting, praying, cooking, making art, sewing, teaching, singing and celebrating embraced and respected the buffalo.

The idea of the Native children growing up to carry on their own traditions would probably not have happened.

My Totem Pole A totem pole is a colossal log carved mainly by the indigenous people of Alaska and British Columbia. These poles tell stories that have been passed down from generation to generation as legends and myths. However, that is not the only type of totem pole, there are totems that tell the carver’s history, their family’s history and a few are even used to honor the dead.

Where Jacobson works with animalistic symbolism, Morrisseau expresses the Ojibway worldview within his work through the use of narratives. Morrisseau’s grandfather Potan was known as a Midewinini and Jissakan, a shaking tent seer, and was well versed in the traditional stories and teachings of his people.

In the next few paragraphs I will be talking about some of the hardships and cruelty that the Indians of the Americas had to go through. There will be three different points of views I will be going into detail of, Bartolome de Las Casas, Helen Hunt Jackson, and Andrew Jackson.

Bartolome de Las Casas was a knowledgeable and respected man. Throughout his life he had many jobs and positions.

This relationship is shaped by the views of the French on the role the colony plays. For the French, as referenced in the lecture and the text, New France is a place of natural resources, and the Native population is there to trade with for those resources. Fur was the greatest of the resources, specifically beaver. The fur trappers and traders befriended the peoples, including intermarriage.
