Extractions: The Hopi Indians, which means good, peaceful, or wise, come from a group of Southwestern people called Pueblo. Hopis call themselves Hopitu The Peacable People. Hopis live in northeast Arizona at the southern end of the Black Mesa. A mesa is the name given to a small isolated flat-topped hill with three steep sides called the 1 st Mesa, 2 nd Mesa, and the 3 rd Mesa. On the mesa tops are the Hopi villages called pueblos. The pueblo of Oraibi on the 3 rd Mesa started in 1050, and is the oldest in North America that was lived in continuously. ANCESTRY Evidence suggest that the Hopi consist of the descendants of various groups that entered the country from the north, the east, and the south, and that a series of movements covered a period of probably three centuries, and perhaps considerably longer. Their ancestors, the Anasazi, appear to have been related to the Aztecs of Mexico, and may have arrived in their current location 5 to 10 thousand years ago. In that time, they have developed an intricate ceremonial calendar that has helped them survive and be strong in a place that would not seem to have enough reliable water to sustain life. Related to people of the various Pueblos to the east, the Hopis never actually had a single group identitythey were independent villages, sharing with the Zuni and other Pueblos a basic culture and view of the sacred, while sharing among themselves their own (Uto-Aztecan) language base.

Extractions: Indian Nations are sovereign governments, recognized in the U.S. Constitution and hundreds of treaties with the U.S. President. The history of this continent's original inhabitants encompasses a broad range of cultures and experiences. American Indians varied greatly from region to region, as did their reactions to European settlement. This website will delve into the vast and storied background of most tribes and seek to supply the visitors with as much knowledge as possible about the proud history of Native Americans . Please join us on this journey into the past, experience the present and dream about the future of the American Indian. When Columbus landed on the island of San Salvador in 1492 he was welcomed by a brown-skinned people whose physical appearance confirmed him in his opinion that he had at last reached India, and whom, therefore, he called Indios , Indians, a name which, however mistaken in its first application continued to hold its own, and has long since won general acceptance, except in strictly scientific writing, where the more exact term American is commonly used. As exploration was extended north and south it was found that the same race was spread over the whole continent, from the Arctic shores to Cape Horn, everywhere alike in the main physical characteristics, with the exception of the Eskimo in the extreme North, whose features suggest the Mongolian...

Extractions: Janice Kennerly and Donna Skahill Introduction Task Resources ... Conclusion Native Americans have lived throughout North America for thousands of years. This was long before Christopher Columbus sailed to the New World and named them "Indians". He had mistakenly thought he had reached his destination of India. We are going to discover what our world, the Southwestern United States, looked like during the time of Native Americans. Come along on a journey where you will discover different cultures and learn to look at your home in a new way. Each tribe had a distinct culture yet shared many of the same beliefs. You have the task to learn about the location of the tribes, types of homes, clothing, food, and beliefs and/or crafts of the Hopi, Navajo, Pueblo,Western Apache,and Zuni tribes. At the end of this unit you will have to decide to join a tribe and write about your life there. Which tribe would you like to join? Why? Activity 1 - Look at the map of the Southwestern United States. On this map you will find the locations of the 5 tribes you will be studying in this unit: Hopi, Navajo, Pueblo, Western Apache and Zuni. Click on the name of the tribe, a hand will appear, and read about the tribal ways of each tribe. When you finish reading about that tribe remember to use the BACK arrow to return to this page.

Alcoholism And Native Americans

http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Forum/9235/Alcohol.html

Extractions: Alcoholism and Native Americans by John M. Stevenson Native Americans have a higher rate of alcohol consumption than all other ethnic groups or subgroups in the United States. Arrest statistics, random-sample surveys, professional and social-service-agency studies, and ethnographic studies of Native Americans have identified that alcohol consumption is a leading health problem. Although alcohol consumption is a serious problem in Native American society, it is often overlooked that substantial numbers of them do not drink at all or drink in moderation (Weisner, 1984 : 237). This paper will show the statistics and will conclude with some suggestions on how this problem may be corrected. Crime Native Americans have consistently been arrested at approximately three times the Black rate and ten times the White rate, according to age-adjusted figures for 1950-1968. Despite a number of reports showing that in particular Native American groups, most arrests are for minor offenses, this does not appear to be the case of Native Americans as a whole. For drinking-related offenses, the disparity between Native American and the general population rate are even greater about eight times the Black rate and over twenty times the White rate in the United States. Canadian native peoples also have been reported to be over-represented in alcohol associated arrests and a high proportion of arrested Canadian native people have been reported as drinking at the time an offense was committed. These disproportionate rates of drinking-related arrests are one of the principal statistics cited to show that Native Americans have a greater drinking problem than the rest of the population.

Extractions: WELCOME. The Navajo Nation comprises over 200,000 people. We are larger than the state of New York and several smaller states in the United States. Our land comprises of forest to desert vegetation. When driving through the Rez (reservation) you will see homes and such built along the major highways. In World War II, many Navajo men served in the military and served as Top Secret Code Talkers. The U.S. military gathered many Navajos to speak a special code that was never deciphered, especially by fellow Navajo Indians. The Navajo Code was finally declassified in 1968. It was then that the Navajo Code Talker's could freely discuss their activities during the War. Click NAVAJO CODE TALKERS to learn more about our courageous heros.
