Have you ever had a sibling or somebody else ruin the things you were doing or the way you do things? Native Americans understand this question because it happened to them hundreds of years ago. Before the Spanish and British came to the Americas, there were almost 300,000 people in North America. These Native Americans were from Eurasia, Africa, and even Australia, and had their lives ruined by western explorers and settlements. The Native Americans were the first people in North America and likely crossed over the land bridge and split into a number of groups. I am going to compare and contrast the effects that explorers and settlements had on three of the regions where they split into tribes. The first region that I am going to compare is the Arctic and Subarctic regions. Specifically, the Inuit Tribe. The Inuit Tribe was a tribe that lived in the far north part of the Arctic. They were hunters, because they could not farm for three fourths of the year, not even in the spring. They relied heavily on hunting …show more content…
This is also the region that I have been focusing on the most. The California region is a region that extends from Northern California to the southernmost tip of the Mexican Peninsula. Unlike the Eastern Woodlands and The Arctic and Subarctic regions, Southern California is very dry and hard to live in. The natives of Southern California ate bugs, and other desert animals. Northern California was much different though. It had great amounts of trees, and was easy to farm in, while Southern California was very hard to farm in. That is why people in Southern California moved a lot. The people were hunters and fishers. They mostly built their houses out of wood, but some were straw and earth or soil. In local life, people made baskets, picked pine nuts, made kustavi, and built and played on ball courts made out of desert rocks. Some native tribes of the area are the Pomos and
Did you know that the Inuits and Dene people live in under -30 degrees Fahrenheit? They both also started their tribes around 1000 BC.

The Dene and Inuits are very similar in many ways. For example, they both live in the northern part of Canada.

After the Civil War, America went through a controversial event that changed the social order of society. Because the Emancipation Proclamation freed slaves, the white elite no longer controlled the African Americans. As a result, they felt threatened and wanted to secure their dominance in society by “incorporating” the influx of different cultures from immigrants and Native Americans. In Rebecca Edwards’ New Spirits: Americans in the Gilded Age, she states that there was an “incorporation of America” where assimilation began among certain groups to make them part of the whole. For example, the Native Americans faced a great deal of “incorporation” within what the whites thought of as an ideal society; as a result, their “incorporation” caused

The Bannock tribe was a huge and important tribe with rich history and culture until the building of Fort Hall when the white settlers came, and that eventually led to their destruction. The history and the traditions of the Bannock tribe, which is where they were located, the food they ate, and the games they played like the relay races, is a huge part of who they are today. The Bannock’s lands were located in what is now known as Idaho, Oregon, Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Montana, and into Canada. Another part of the Bannock tribe was its neighbors the Shoshone tribe.
Deana Dartt-Newton and Jon M. Erlandson in their academic journal entitled Little Choice For The Chumash: Colonialism, Cattle, And Coercion In Mission Period California argues that the Chumash Indians had a abundant amount of oak groves, chaparral, and riparian communities, large estuaries, a mosaic of sandy and rocky shorelines, and had extensive kelp beds to provide them with a wide variety of resources (416-430). Furthermore, the Chumash were able to flourish with all the variety and plethora of resources obtainable along the mainland coast, when shared with refined maritime technologies and all embracing business and craft specialism, allowed aggregations of as many as six hundred to one thousand peoples to live in some coastal towns. Hence, Newton and Erlandson argues that there was a great deal of trade happening among the Chumash groups (and neighboring tribes) that were living on the islands, and in the coastal mainland (416-430). The inner valleys were operated by the use of shell bead money, and large plank canoes (tomols), and wide-ranging trail

“Primitiveness ' on the usage of language that relates to greetings, grumbles and commands which commonly happened in society actually is a mere misconception. Every language is in fact, equally complete and perfect as a communication device or instrument to state things in our mind we would like to imply to other people, to put it differently, we should not harshly judge a language as primitive when it comes to precision and subtlety, for instance; if an Eskimos is more able to convey the knowledge of ‘snow’ way better in their native language rather than the English man himself though their terms for different kinds of snow in English are as rich as the Eskimo . In general, it 's only the result of the environment the Eskimos live in
The Original story In the late 1960s and early 1970s, Inuit began organizing politically in response to assimilative policies and government restrictions on traditional lands. In order to lobby effectively for land claims, Aboriginal rights and self-government, a group of Inuit people formed Inuit Tapiriit Kanatami (then known as Inuit Tapirisat of Canada) in 1971. The organization supports and advocates for the interests of all Inuit. Such interests represent an array of interconnected issues and challenges, including social, cultural, political, and environmental concerns.
