Native Americans and Early Exploration: To 1845 For thousands of years prior to European settlement, the upper Willamette Valley was populated by a series of native peoples. Their long tenancy in the region is indicated by ". . .a number of archeological sites [including] several localities along the Long Tom River west of Eugene [that] have been radiocarbon dated to between 6,000 and 10,000 years old." The most recent native Americans, the Kalapuya lived throughout the valley in villages ranging from 20 to 500 inhabitants. Along with the Siuslaw, the Klamath-Modoc, the Molalla, and several other tribal groups, they belonged to the Penutian language group, which was broken down into several sub-groups. There were several different dialects of the Kalapuya language that were spoken within the Willamette Valley, and it is believed that people from different regions with varying dialects were able to communicate freely with each other for purposes of trade and socialization. Native populations in the Willamette Valley were estimated at 23 people per 100 square miles. These natives utilized the Willamette River for transportation, recreation and food gathering. Their activities included large game hunting, tool manufacturing, hide preparation, camas gathering and grinding, diversified hunting, fishing, woodworking, and milling.

Their fringed sashes and kilts are bordered with red, black and green designs pertaining to water or rain. The boys carry gourd rattles and decorated feather shafts. Their thick soled moccasins have the calf length uppers common to the Hopi. The girl dancer wears a black woolen dress trimmed with silver chonchos. Her hand woven sash or girdle is in tones of red, gray, black and white. She has a liquid silver coral and turquoise necklace over the floral silk fringed shawl that drapes across one shoulder. She carries two eagle feathers in each hand. Her head piece or "Tablita" depicts a butterfly with flowers and rain symbols. Native Americans, in part because of the horendous treatment by white Americans as well as the exposure to European diseases, now comprise only a small part of the Americam mosaic. It is a rich, colorful traition, no matter how small. Native American dress is showcased atvpowwows and other gatherings held annually throughout America.
Native American People
The natives of both North and South America exibit a great variety of lingusistic, anatomical, and cultural characteristics. The discussion of these diverse peoples must thus proceeded by groups and subgroupings. The most advanced civilizations were those developing in Mexico, Central America, and South America. The civilizations in North America were primarily hunter-gather civilizations, but some were engaged in settled agriculture. The popular idea that all Native Americans are more or less alike has long been dispelled by intensice ethonological investigation which has discovered as many differences as similarities among tribes, those that are not contiguous exhibiting pronounced variations.

Scientific Research and the Autonomy of Indigenous Peoples: The Case of the Kennewick Man
Although the dead can't speak, they do tell tales. But who should be allowed to determine what stories the dead are telling? The question of rights over disposition of human remains raises issues of research ethics when archaeologists and physical anthropologists attempt to study the ancient remains of indigenous peoples in North America. The case of the Kennewick Man, a recently discovered Paleoindian man, illustrates the difficulties of such research. The problem confronting archaeologists, physical anthropologists and Native Americans has broader implications for the practice of science. In this case study, the ethical practice of science and the relation of science to the values of indigenous people is considered.
NAGPRA History and Objectives
Until recently, archaeologists encountered few obstacles in excavating and studying the remains of the dead; Native Americans had little or no voice in the planning or execution of archaeological research. Recent activism and lobbying by Native Americans resulted in the passage of the 1990 Native American Graves Protection and Repatriation Act (NAGPRA). NAGPRA was enacted to address complaints that archaeologists and museums had appropriated human remains and sacred objects that were not rightfully theirs to control. As the act is currently written, Native America tribes can reclaim human remains and grave goods to which they can establish a cultural affiliation. Affiliation can be demonstrated through a variety of criteria, which include geographical, biological, archaeological, and anthropological information; historical data; oral history; expert opinions; or other relevant information.

The foregoing article is reproduced from the Glasgow newspaper The Daily Record and Mail , of Tuesday, 6th September 1904. It was written by 'Major' John M. Burke, General Manager with Buffalo Bill's Wild West and Congress of Rough Riders of the World , which had been in the city a few weeks previously. This is one of Burke's famous press releases, intended to highlight perceived common ground between the members of the entourage and the host culture. John M. Burke's opinions and interpretation of the history of the 'Five Civilized Tribes' and of the manner in which Native Americans have benefited from so-called material progress are reproduced here verbatim , and without comment. William McIntosh, Creek Nation 'The distribution of man over the face of the earth forms as interesting a subject as his origin, with which the scientists of the day are called upon to deal. Ages have passed and nations have thriven and decayed, but many of them have left indelible traces of their existence upon the surface of the globe, and from these can be traced the fascinating story of other ages and other peoples. None is more attractive than to trace the adventurous wanderers from the old countries and analyse the results of their assimilating with other peoples. During the years I have been associated with Buffalo Bill's Wild West I have met many different races and nations, and have acquired much information on this subject, very interesting to Scotsmen.

Native North Americans
Native American Conquest American Indians were visited by Conquistadors nearly five centuries ago. Spanish records are the oldest we have of Native America. Indian villages were reported at places which are cities today. Indian trails between those villages became the roads. Rivers, landmarks and native cultures were described along those trails by Spaniards: they wrote the oldest history we have of America. Not long after Columbus discovered the New World, Spain settled in Indian villages in The Americas. When European explorers arrived in America in 1492 they found around 2 million Native Americans living there. The Europeans mistakenly called them Indians, thinking they had landed in the Indies in the Far East of Asia. These 'Indians' belonged to at least 300 different tribes and spoke over 2,000 different languages. Famous examples of these tribes are:
  • the Cheyenne the Blackfoot the Comanche the Sioux
Each tribe spoke a separate language, and their houses, clothes and entertainment differed. However, they all followed a similar life based on hunting and farming. These Native Americans were related to the peoples of North Eastern Asia. It is thought that their ancestors crossed a land bridge linking Siberia to Alaska around 30,000 BC. There was gradual movement south to the Great Plains of (the yet to be called) America.

It was not so many years ago that North American Indian Art was classified in the category of souvenirs or trinkets. At best, the historic and prehistoric relics of a great people were housed in museums of natural history as examples of primitive art. Within recent years the situation has changed quickly and dramatically. Together we can gain an appreciation of how native tribal people are aware of and respond to our natural world.

The resultant supernova gives off massive amounts of energy...However, with the improved drugs of the 60s, astronomers were able to see all sorts of things. They discovered something many times more powerful than any supernova. Gamma ray bursts (GRB) burst into the astrophysics scene with an a roar, "What the hell is that?"

"If the burst had occurred somewhere in our galactic neighborhood, it would have been so bright that night would've turned into day,"...In may 1997 the biggest GRB was discovered. It was huge.

I N T HE B EGINNING
All humans are interested in their origins and try to account for their existence through creation stories. Creation stories commonly explain how people came into existence, how they came to be live where they do, how they acquired tools and customs, and why people should act, or not act, in certain ways. Most commonly creation stories contain fundamental conceptions of nature, society, and how people ought to relate to the world and to one another. All societies have such creation stories. Every native North American society has such stories recounting the actions and deeds of "power" in the past. Here are two such stories. Life . . . rests on five successive periods. Its first was...self-born. That was the divine spirit, the first cause, the desire to be. Then came the creation; the creation of being, the bringing into begin of material thingsthe starts of heaven, the elements of earth and atmosphere, life in its elemental form, the desire to live and survive.... The first earth's environment was one of mistsimmaterial, unformed. The second was of water, with land portions floating on it. During this period all sea life was conceived and developed. The third stage brought the coming of animals and bird life of many kinds along with elemental human types. The fourth stage was a time of earth wandering, a search by Navajo forebears for a durable home. This was found; the land of turquoise skies. The fifth has been of gradual advance...of the Navajo people.

Native American
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia. Native Americans , also called American Indians or simply Amerindians , are the indigenous people who lived in the Americas before European colonization. In Canada the term First Nations is now in general use. In Alaska , because of legal use in the Alaska Native Claims Settlement Act ( ANSCA ) and because of the presence of the Inuit Yupik , and Aleut peoples, the term Alaskan Native is used. (See further discussion below.) Native American officially make up the majority of the population in Bolivia and Guatemala and are significant in most other Hispanic American countries, with the possible exception of Costa Rica Cuba Dominican Republic and Uruguay

Listening to Native Americans:
Making Peace with the Past for the Future
John Barry Ryan
John Barry Ryan is Professor of Religious Studies and a member of the Peace Studies faculty at Manhattan College. His research interests include liturgical studies and American Indian religions. It is a Native American tradition to introduce oneself before one speaks. In that spirit, I begin with some steps in my own journey of listening to Native Americans. I acknowledge at the outset that for most of my life I did not listen, maybe could not listen. But for a decade now, I have been attempting to listen to Native Americans. "Attempting" is the appropriate word because I am very much aware that I bring preconceptions, hardheadedness, and lack of attention to the conversation. Even worse, Native Americans have taught me that I carry a much heavier burden. I view the world from the conqueror's point of view, which informs everything I do. I knew this intellectually, but in listening to Native Americans I understand more concretely and in some detail what it means. I only dared propose a course on Native American Religions because I had researched Navajo prayer forms for two papers that I presented, one in 1985 at the annual meeting of the North American Academy of Liturgy and the other in 1991 at the biannual meeting of

An Introduction to
North America's Native People
ADENA Towards the end of the Archaic (shortly before 3000-4000 years ago), some societies in the Eastern Woodlands began burying their dead in low, natural ridges and hills. Then around 1000 B.C., perhaps earlier, morturay rites assumed increasing importance and complexity - people began building small artificial mounds under which their dead were buried (a few mound burials date as far back as 5600 B.C. in Labrador). By 500 B.C. this burial mound ceremonialism extend across a broad region of the Eastern Woodlands, from the western Appalachians to the Mississippi Valley, and north into Wisconsin and Michigan. Perhaps the best known of the early burial mound building cultures is the Adena of the central Ohio Valley (dates span time from about 2800 BP [800 BC] to 100 AD). Although people often speak and write of an Adena "culture," in actuality the term is really a label of convenience that covers dozens of Eastern Woodland cultures that thrived in the period between 3000 and 2200 years ago - cultures that varied markedly in material culture but were bound together by a shared ceremonial complex, the Adena. Adena sites (many are now destroyed) are concentrated in a relatively small area - around 300 sites in the central Ohio Valley, with perhaps another 200 scattered throughout Indiana, Kentucky, West Virginia and Pennsylvania. The importance of the Adena complex comes from its considerable influence on other contemporary cultures and cultures that came after it.

Abenaki Native Americans have occupied northern New England for at least 10,000 years. There is no proof these ancient residents were ancestors of the Abenaki, but there is no reason to think they were not. Acolapissa The mild climate of the lower Mississippi required little clothing. Acolapissa men limited themselves pretty much to a breechcloth, women a short skirt, and children ran nude until puberty. With so little clothing with which to adorn themselves, the Acolapissa were fond of decorating their entire bodies with tattoos. In cold weather a buffalo robe or feathered cloak was added for warmth.

Back Native American experience demonstrates
that we ourselves should protect our rights During December 2000, five representatives of Rus-sian indigenous peoples visited the United States. The initiative was that of the Association of Indigenous peoples of the North of the Khabarovskiy Kray and David Gordon, Associate Director of the Pacific Envi-ronment and Resources Center (PERC) and it was discussed in February, 2000. From 1 to 28 December 2000, the Pacific Envi-ronment and Resources Center organized a trip for five representatives of indigenous minorities of the North of Russia - from the Kamchatka Region, the Krasnoyarsk, Khabarovsk and Primorye territories (Lyudmila Ognatenko, Arkadiy Kaza, Nadezhda No-vik, Ekaterina Semkevich; Galina Volkova) - to the states of Washington and Oregon. The aim was for Native Americans and representatives of indigenous peoples of the Far East of Russia to exchange experi-ences with regard to protection of our rights to land and natural resources. For me, the word "reservation" has always been associated with something humiliating. But after I visited reservations during this trip I concluded that this is an appropriate solution to indigenous peoples' problems in America. We visited eight reservations and found out that 550 Indian tribes have been recog-nized to date, and about 200 of these have been strug-gling for their rights. They gained rights to lands and natural resources on the basis of agreements (the first was concluded in 1850 as a result of the Bolt trial) on the basis of the US Constitution.

Quotations:
" The culture, values and traditions of native people amount to more than crafts and carvings. Their respect for the wisdom of their elders, their concept of family responsibilities extending beyond the nuclear family to embrace a whole village, their respect for the environment, their willingness to share - all of these values persist within their own culture even though they have been under unremitting pressure to abandon them. " Mr. Justice Thomas Berger, Mackenzie Valley Pipeline Inquiry, (aka the Berger Inquiry). " Rather than going to church, I attend a sweat lodge; rather than accepting bread and toast [sic] from the Holy Priest, I smoke a ceremonial pipe to come into Communion with the Great Spirit; and rather than kneeling with my hands placed together in prayer, I let sweetgrass be feathered over my entire being for spiritual cleansing and allow the smoke to carry my prayers into the heavens. I am a Mi'kmaq, and this is how we pray. " Noah Augustine, from his article "
