Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This evenhanded history of the Jicarilla Apache tribe of New Mexico highlights their long history of cultural adaptation and change--both to new environments and cultural traits. Concentrating on the modern era, 1846-1970, Veronica Tiller, herself a Jicarilla Apache, tells of the tribe's economic adaptations and relations with the United States government. Originally published in 1983, this revised edition updates the account of the Jicarilla experience, documenting the significant economic, political, and cultural changes that have occurred as the tribe has exercised ever greater autonomy in recent years.

Book The Jicarilla Apache of Dulce

Download or read book The Jicarilla Apache of Dulce written by Veronica E. Velarde Tiller and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2012 with total page 130 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now the headquarters of the Jicarilla Apache, Dulce (meaning "sweet" in Spanish) was named by the impoverished and relocated Indians who associated the place with the sugar and candy that came with government-supplied rations. Since the establishment of the reservation in 1887, Dulce has become the hub of everything associated with the Jicarillas. From the early timber operations, farming, and livestock raising, the Jicarilla Apache have become an economic powerhouse of northern New Mexico. Dulce is now a community living in two worlds, fully immersed in the American mainstream economy with a world-class hunting lodge, significant oil and gas operations, and widely diversified investments while fiercely maintaining the centuries-old language, culture, religion, and ceremonies of Jicarilla Apache Indians.

Book Myths and Legends of the Lipan Apache Indians

Download or read book Myths and Legends of the Lipan Apache Indians written by Morris Edward Opler and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-12 with total page 591 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Lipan Apache are Southern Athabaskan (Apachean) Native Americans whose traditional territory included present-day Texas, New Mexico, Colorado, and the northern Mexican states of Chihuahua, Nuevo León, Coahuila, and Tamaulipas, prior to the 17th century. Present-day Lipan live mostly throughout the U.S. Southwest, in Texas, New Mexico, and the San Carlos Apache Indian Reservation in Arizona, as well as with the Mescalero tribe on the Mescalero Reservation in New Mexico; some currently live in urban and rural areas throughout North America (Mexico, United States, and Canada). “The myths and tales of this volume are of particular significance, perhaps, because they have reference to a tribe about which there is almost no published ethnographic material. The Lipan Apache were scattered and all but annihilated on the eve of the Southwestern reservation period. The survivors found refuge with other groups, and, except for a brief notice by Gatshet, they have been overlooked or neglected while investigations of numerically larger peoples have proceeded. “It is gratifying, therefore, to be able to present a fairly full collection of Lipan folklore, and to be in a position to report that this collection does much to illuminate the relations of Southern Athabaskan-speaking tribes and the movements of aboriginal populations in the American Southwest. “The myths and tales of this volume were recorded during the summer of 1935.”—Claremont Colleges

Book Culture and Customs of the Apache Indians

Download or read book Culture and Customs of the Apache Indians written by Veronica E. Verlade Tiller and published by Bloomsbury Publishing USA. This book was released on 2010-12-16 with total page 194 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Written for high school students and general readers alike, this insightful treatment links the storied past of various Apache tribes with their life in contemporary times. Written for high school students and general readers alike, Culture and Customs of the Apache Indians links the storied past of the Apaches with contemporary times. It covers modern-day Apache culture and customs for all eight tribes in Arizona, New Mexico, and Oklahoma since the end of the Apache wars in the 1880s. Highlighting tribal religion, government, social customs, lifestyle, and family structures, as well as arts, music, dance, and contemporary issues, the book helps readers understand Apaches today, countering stereotypes based on the 18th- and 19th-century views created by the popular media. It demonstrates that Apache communities are contributing members of society and that, while their culture and customs are based on traditional ways, they live and work in the modern world.

Book Myths and Tales of the Chiricahua Apache Indians

Download or read book Myths and Tales of the Chiricahua Apache Indians written by Morris Edward Opler and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2017-06-28 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “We are dealing here with a living literature,” wrote Morris Edward Opler in his preface to Myths and Tales of the Chiricahua Apache Indians. First published in 1942, this is another classic study by the author of Myths and Tales of the Jicarilla Apache Indians. Opler conducted field work among the Chiricahuas in the American Southwest, as he had earlier among the Jicarillas. The result is a definitive collection of their myths. They range from an account of the world destroyed by water to descriptions of puberty rites and wonderful contests. The exploits of culture heroes involve the slaying of monsters and the assistance of Coyote. A large part of the book is devoted to the irrepressible Coyote, whose antics make cautionary tales for the young, tales that also allow harmless expression of the taboo. Other striking stories present supernatural beings and “foolish people.”

Book Childhood and Youth in Jicarilla Apache Society

Download or read book Childhood and Youth in Jicarilla Apache Society written by Morris Edward Opler and published by . This book was released on 1946 with total page 198 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "This book is meant to fulfill a double function. It is the first of two volumes which together will describe aboriginal Jicarilla culture, and it therefore belongs to the series of studies in which I am presenting and comparing the former ways of life of a number of Apache tribes. Because it is arranged in terms of the life cycle and because it carries the Jicarilla only to the threshold of marriage, it constitutes a study of child development and child training, as well. Since this is a reconstruction of aboriginal Jicarilla culture and not an acculturation study (I plan to publish my acculturation material separately), it is not an analysis of a particular group of children. Individual character delineations and personality differences emerge from the material, to be sure, but the emphais throughout is on the means and mechanisms by which the culture trains and mods its young. As a result there evolves an account of the convictions, practices, and ideals which the culture approves for its carriers, the manner and order in which they are set before the young, the persons and groups who share the responsibility for conveying and instilling these values, the techniques employed, and the general results achieved. To a large extent, then, this is a study of the transmission of a culture from one generation to the next. To avoid, as far as possible, any distortions which might arise in the course of making such a reconstruction, I have leaned heavily on source materials, for they provide context and emotional quality as well as fact. My own comments and interpretations are contained in a series of explanatory footnotes which refer to and parallel the body of the book. References to other published materials and summaries of aspects of the culture which involve children only indirectly are also given in these notes."-- Author's preface.

Book An Apache Life Way

Download or read book An Apache Life Way written by Morris Edward Opler and published by Pickle Partners Publishing. This book was released on 2018-12-05 with total page 1025 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A majority of ethnographer Morris Edward Opler’s research was done on Native American groups of the American Southwest. He studied specifically the Chiricahua Indians, who were the subjects of one of his most famous books, An Apache Life-Way: The Economic, Social, and Religious Institutions of the Chiricahua Indians. Opler studied many Native American groups, but the Apache were a main focus of his. An Apache Life-Way traces the life of an Apache year by year. Rather than a history, the book explains the day-to-day Apache experience, detailing the chronological order of one’s life. The lifestyle described in the book is from a time before the Americans started the long era of hostile interactions with the Apache. The people designated as “Apache” in this book are those who spoke the Apache language in the area that is now New Mexico, Arizona, Sonora, and Chihuahua. There were many smaller sub-groups that populated these areas, three of them different groups of the Chiricahua Apache. An Apache Life-Way is divided into several main parts: Childhood; Maturation; Social Relations of Adults; Folk Beliefs, Medical Practice, and Shamanism; Maintenance of the Household; Marital and Sexual Life; The Round of Life; Political Organization and Status; and Death, Mourning, and the Underworld. Each section is divided into more specific subcategories that explore each phase of life and the rituals associated with it. Originally published in 1941, An Apache Life-Way remains one of the most important and innovative studies of south-western Native Americans. “First-class...in the best ethnographic tradition. It fills a great gap in our anthropological knowledge and...deserves to be one of the most used of American tribal records.”—Ruth Benedict, author of Patterns of Culture
