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.

Download or read book Jicarilla Apache Texts written by Pliny Earle Goddard and published by . This book was released on 2019-09-26 with total page 84 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Jicarilla Apaches carry a rich tradition of legendary stories, and customs ranging back centuries - this book, translated directly from texts in the Apache language, contains many examples of tribal lore. An exceptional introduction to Native American tribal culture, we find here a range of descriptions and narrations. The initial selection concerns the early creation myths of the Apache, while certain animals are discussed as representing symbols in nature. Other stories concern ancient heroes who embark upon daring rescues or deliver people under their protection to safety. In many stories, animals themselves are personified, with various traits - noble and otherwise - displayed in such stories. Later entries in this collection include personal anecdotes of events that happened in the distant past; the Apache's history with the neighboring Navajo tribe, successful hunts of mighty beasts and game, and various explorations of distant canyons. Finally, a selection of explanations concerning life in the Apache tribe are offered - advice on building a tipi hut, cooking certain meats, the medicine ceremonies and rituals, the celebrations of adolescence and the slaying of the buffalo are some of the topics. Overall, this book is a fine introduction to the rich Apache culture and traditions.

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 Terror on the Santa Fe Trail

Download or read book Terror on the Santa Fe Trail written by Doug Hocking and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2019-09-20 with total page 409 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: *Winner of the 2020 Will Rogers Medallion Award for Western Nonfiction* In the 1840s and 50s, the Jicarilla Apache were the terror of the Santa Fe Trail and the Rio Arriba. They repeatedly clashed with the cavalry and raided wagon trains, and there was bad blood between the band and the Army after the Battle of San Pasqual, when they were on opposite sides during the Mexican American War. In 1854, as traffic was on the increase along the historic trade route, the Jicarilla soundly defeated the 1st United States Dragoons in the Battle of Cieneguilla. Cieneguilla was the worst defeat of the US Army in the West up to that time, and it was just one of the first major battles between the US Army and Apache forces during the Ute Wars. According to one version of events, the 60 dragoons, under the direction of a Lt. Davidson, had engaged in an unauthorized attack on theJicarilla while they were out on patrol. Others claimed that the Jicarilla either ambushed the Army or taunted them into attack. Kit Carson, who was agent for the Jicarilla, would defend Davidson’s actions—and after this fight, he served as a scout against the Jicarilla. Much like the Sioux defeat of Custer at Little Big Horn, the Jicarilla’s victory over the Army led to retribution and disaster. The Jicarilla were defeated and faded from memory before the Civil War. These are the events that brought them to ruin.
