similar if you really think about it. Both depended greatly on canoes and were incredibly serious about respecting each other and following rules. Some of the main rules and valued forms of respect for both tribes included generosity, going about in the tipi in a quiet and orderly manner, and always respecting elders. Though both were similar in some ways, they had many, many differences. Even their similarities contained differences! For example, while both the Ojibwe and the Dakota depended on canoes
of the core characteristics that make up each of the five personality traits, for example when looking at extroversion; I scored a 6.5 vs. the norm of 4.44, which equates to 2.1 points higher than the normal individual. Based on the findings in TIPI personality test I possess more characteristics of an extravert and therefore, are considered to be more extraverted than the norm.

with large tipi flaps”. The Kiowa expanded their territories through out the southern plains, which is known as modern day Kansas, Oklahoma, New Mexico, Colorado and Texas. The mid-1900 century the Kiowa Indian tribe had several treaties with the United States, but it was the Medicine lodge treaty with the southern plains tribes that relocated the Kiowa’s into reservation located in present day Oklahoma. The Kiowa’s were known amongst other tribe as the large tipi flap people and their tipi art displayed
As a teen staff, I live in one of the tipis for my time at camp with nine to twelve girl campers. The campers in my tipi, I have full responsibility for. The system of having tipis is designed to create the idea of a family in each one. For my time at camp, my co-staff and I help the girls in our tipi to bond, make friendships, and make sure that they are getting the full camp experience. We are in charge of sleeping in the tipi every night, making sure the girls are getting along
wooden frames covered in sod, but they then switched to tipis, a portable home that assembly and disassembly were no troubles at all. Tipis, made of wooden poles and buffalo hide, could easily be carried by a horse. The tipi was an excellent home for the nomadic Cheyenne. During the hot summers, the bottom of the tipi was rolled up so the air could flow through, but not as much sunlight. In the winter, the Cheyenne added an earth layer to the tipi for insolation. When the Cheyenne wanted to wander somewhere
Chrisianity is present in both writers perspectives, even if it is not intentionally done. Mandelbaum represents a western way of thinking that is largly influenced by Christianity. In his writing, Mandelbaum often compares Indigenous ways of thinking to western perspectives adhering to overpowering dominance it has established within North American society which has had many impacts. Colonialism has also influenced Indigenous perspectives in the form of residential schools, the 60’s scoop, and various
Cree Indians The Cree indians are a big tribe of Native Americans who lived in parts of North America. They also stayed in the Rocky Mountains and places along the Atlantic Coast. The Cree indians heavily populated Quebec and Saskatchewan in Canada. Between Canada and the United States, there are about 200,000 (registered) Cree indians. The number may be a little higher for those that are not registered. There are several bands of Cree Indians. The bands include the James Bay Cree, Woodland Cree
The Apache’s are in some ways extremely similar to other tribes, but their livelihood and past are extremely unique. Now, Apache tribe lives in reservations in AZ, NM and some of TX. Now they live in Wickiups, they similar to tipis, but made of sticks as well. Only women are in charge of their homes, as well as learning to shoot and ride, but they could not become warriors. The Apache people usually traded, and also raided other tribes. Apaches tell many stories and it is a big part of their culture
While some will call Rastafarianism a religion, others will say that Rastafarianism is a kind of spiritual consciousness because the Rastas lack a great deal of what is central for other religions while still retaining a belief in a God. There aren't too many organised Rasta 'churches', and the closest thing you would come to a church will probably be Rasta organisations like 'The Twelve Tribes of Israel', the 'Nyabinghi Order' and especially the 'Bobo Dreads'. Rastafarianism also lacks a confession
People have been living in America for countless years, even before Europeans had discovered and populated it. These people, named Native Americans or American Indians, have a unique and singular culture and lifestyle unlike any other. Native Americans were divided into several groups or tribes. Each one tribe developed an own language, housing, clothing, and other cultural aspects. As we take a look into their society’s customs we can learn additional information about the lives of these indigenous
At first glance, John Taylor and Howling Wolf’s visual representations of the treaty signing at Medicine Creek Lodge appear very different from one another. It is more than apparent that the two artists have very different interpretations of the same event. This paper will visually analyze both works of art by comparing and contrasting the compositional balance, medium, and use of color, as well as how the artists narrated their views using different visual elements. John Taylor’s picture of the
I do not agree with scholars who argue that Dakota women were subordinate to Dakota men. Waterlily is “about a girl who lived a century ago, in a remote camp-circle of the Teton Dakotas [Lakotas].”(Deloria vi). Ella Cara Deloria, author of Waterlily, explains her writing, “it reads convincingly to any who understands Dakota life... and it's purely the woman's point of view, her problems, aspirations, ideals, etc.”. (Deloria vi). In general, when our [westernized] culture hears that women are inferior
Reading the autobiography of Chief Black Hawk made me realize how giving the Sac tribe actually was compared to as they call it the whites. The Sac Tribe was based on peace and spiritual lifestyle. They were not all for themselves none of them were. If someone they knew didn’t have what they needed but they did, they wouldn’t hesitate to share. That is how all communities should be but unfortunately we aren’t all as giving as the Sac. They were such good people, which make me wonder why the whites
Since the beginning of humanity, conflicts such as land, religion, and wealth have all been primary factors as they distinguish and define many cultures, such as how Christianity was the driving force behind western expansion. As European countries attempted to spread their religion throughout the world the Doctrine of Discover was formed, allowing any newly discovered people, who do not practice Christianity, may be subjugated to indentured servitude. The most common people who were forced into
The main characters in nearly all the literature studied this term share something in common. They all, at times, are on a personal quest to find their place in the world. Each is an individual who struggles for an identity amidst chaos and, in some cases, deception. These individuals share feelings of isolation and often have great difficulty communicating with other characters in their environment. Kathryn Morton and Tim O’Brien stress the critical importance of stories to the human experience
Throughout the span of history, gender is defined as the difference between masculinity and femininity of both male and female. By examining the context of history, ‘gender role” which consist of men and women shows us how society differentiate certain behaviors as proper or atypical for men and women. In the nineteenth century, gender was a big issue. Whether you are male or a female, just by being one or the other determines how you will live your life. It was the time when the impact of the
"Native American Sound Instruments" Through my own personal experiences and teachings from Native Americans, that have offered to enlighten me, I've gathered that there is a sacred nature rich in spirit and soul to them. The Native American lives religion as a way of life. Children of the tribe grow up in this world of spirituality and learn from example that religion can come as easily as taking a breath every day. This is no attempt to lead into the topic of religion, yet it needs to be known
The Nakotans were Native Americans of the Great Plains. They lived mostly in Montana, North Dakota, Alberta and Saskatchewan. The Nakotan’s lived in small villages near lakes and rice swamps and usually found shelter in tipis. Men and women had different vastly roles in the settlements. Men hunted and women did all of the housework. They spoke in the language of Nakota which was one of the few dialects of the language Dakota. The Nakotans were originally part of a nation called the Sioux, but eventually
Some said that Native Americans are all savages, merciless killers, and uneducated. Many people believed that Native Americans were all supposed to look the same. Common stereotypes have been that all Native Americans live in tipis, wear braids, carry bows and arrows, and ride horses. It has also been believed that Indians have no respect for women. These accusations are not true they are indeed stereotypes. I think that Hollywood filmmakers or the white people from the west
Looney Tunes, a popular cartoon from the 30s to the 60s brought many children hours of entertainment, with its entertaining plot and hilarious antics, which people of all ages enjoyed. In many of its early episodes, there were many times Native Americans made appearances. Many of the characters go off of the stereotypes that had been passed down from the 18th and 19th centuries. In this paper, I focus on the images of Native Americans in the children’s classic cartoon, Looney Tunes, while also exploring
