Book Aboriginal Title and Indigenous Peoples

Download or read book Aboriginal Title and Indigenous Peoples written by Louis A. Knafla and published by UBC Press. This book was released on 2011-01-01 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Delgamuukw. Mabo. Ngati Apa. Recent cases have created a framework for litigating Aboriginal title in Canada, Australia, and New Zealand. The distinguished group of scholars whose work is showcased here, however, shows that our understanding of where the concept of Aboriginal title came from – and where it may be going – can also be enhanced by exploring legal developments in these former British colonies in a comparative, multidisciplinary framework. This path-breaking book offers a perspective on Aboriginal title that extends beyond national borders to consider similar developments in common law countries.

Book Stone Tool Traditions in the Contact Era

Download or read book Stone Tool Traditions in the Contact Era written by Charles Cobb and published by University of Alabama Press. This book was released on 2003-09-10 with total page 225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the first comprehensive analysis of the partial replacement of flaked stone and ground stone traditions by metal tools in the Americas during the Contact Era. It examines the functional, symbolic, and economic consequences of that replacement on the lifeways of native populations, even as lithic technologies persisted well after the landing of Columbus. Ranging across North America and to Hawai'i, the studies show that, even with wide access to metal objects, Native Americans continued to produce certain stone tool types - perhaps because they were still the best implements for a task or because they represented a deep commitment to a traditional practice. Chapters are ordered in terms of relative degree of European contact, beginning with groups that experienced brief episodes of interaction, such as the Wichita-French meeting on the Arkansas River, and ending with societies that were heavily influenced by colonization, such as the Potawatomi of Illinois. Because the anthology draws comparisons between the persistence of stone tools and the continuity of other indigenous crafts, it presents holistic models that can be used to explain the larger consequences of the Contact

Book People of the Three Fires

Download or read book People of the Three Fires written by James A. Clifton and published by Grand Rapids : Michigan Indian Press, Grand Rapids Inter-Tribal Council. This book was released on 1986 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book accompanied by a student workbook and teacher's guide, was written to help secondary school students to explore the history, culture, and dynamics of Michigan's indigenous peoples, the American Indians. Three chapters on the Ottawa, Potawatomi, and Ojibway (or Chippewa) peoples follow an introduction on the prehistoric roots of Michigan Indians. Each chapter reflects the integration of cultural and historical information about the Indians. The chapter on the Potawatomi stresses the political activities and economic forces affecting the tribe in southwestern Michigan. It includes biographical information on 19th century Potawatomi leaders. The second chapter focuses on the subsistence patterns and indigenous environmental relations of the Ojibway, while touching on the spiritual connotations of their existence. It is a generic treatment of Ojibway life, customs, beliefs, and the subsequent federal policies affecting them. The chapter on the Ottawa provides an extended discussion of their contact with European powers and explores the Indians' responses and adaptations to changing environmental and sociopolitical circumstances. This book contains many historical photographs and a five-page bibliography. (TES)

Book The Southwestern Chippewa

Download or read book The Southwestern Chippewa written by Harold Hickerson and published by . This book was released on 1962 with total page 126 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THIS study was stimulated by research on Indian land claims. The emphasis in the research was on the occupancy by Indian communities of lands ceded as bounded tracts to the United States; it involved using historical source material to trace the occupancy by specific peoples of a number of circumscribed areas in the old Northwest Territory from the beginning of the historical period to the time of treaty making. Among the Chippewa of the upper Great Lakes and Mississippi headwaters the period comprehends the years between 1640 and the middle of the 19th century... ... Four main divisions of Chippewa [he Bungee (or Plains Ojibwa), the northern Chippewa (or Saulteaux), the southeastern Chippewa and the southwestern Chippewa] had emerged by the onset of the 19th century. These divisions together occupied a vast territory including almost the entire region between the lower peninsula of Michigan, adjacent parts of Ontario, and the plains of eastern Saskatchewan. This territory in the United States included lands adjacent to the northern parts of the upper Great Lakes and the entire region of the headwaters of the Mississippi (see Map 1). In Canada, Chippewa occupied the entire Lake Superior drainage, the northern Lake Huron drainage, and even portions of the upper Ottawa River. Almost the entire Lake Winnipeg region was occupied by Chippewa, and also other parts of the Hudson's Bay drainage including the upper Hays River. This territory, great in extent and diversity, had been occupied as a result of a series of migrations and conquests beginning in the ninth decade of the 17th century, originating in a rather small area adjacent to northern Lake Huron and eastern Lake Superior of which the great fishery at Sault Ste. Marie was the center. The most far ranging of these divisions was the Bungee, or Plains Ojibwa, who adopted a bison hunting economy and resembled other northern Plains tribes in important facets of their political and ceremonial organ... -- Amazon.

  • Release : 2011-10-05
  • ISBN : 0472028499
  • Pages : 391 pages

Download or read book Faith in Paper written by Charles Cleland and published by University of Michigan Press. This book was released on 2011-10-05 with total page 391 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Faith in Paper is about the reinstitution of Indian treaty rights in the Upper Great Lakes region during the last quarter of the 20th century. The book focuses on the treaties and legal cases that together have awakened a new day in Native American sovereignty and established the place of Indian tribes on the modern political landscape. In addition to discussing the historic development of Indian treaties and their social and legal context, Charles E. Cleland outlines specific treaties litigated in modern courts as well as the impact of treaty litigation on the modern Indian and non-Indian communities of the region. Faith in Paper is both an important contribution to the scholarship of Indian legal matters and a rich resource for Indians themselves as they strive to retain or regain rights that have eroded over the years. Charles E. Cleland is Michigan State University Emeritus Professor of Anthropology and Curator of Anthropology and Ethnology. He has been an expert witness in numerous Native American land claims and fishing rights cases and written a number of other books on the subject, including Rites of Conquest: The History and Culture of Michigan's Native Americans; The Place of the Pike (Gnoozhekaaning): A History of the Bay Mills Indian Community; and (as a contributor) Fish in the Lakes, Wild Rice, and Game in Abundance: Testimony on Behalf of Mille Lacs Ojibwe Hunting and Fishing Rights.
