This book was released on 2015-07-21 with total page 400 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tribes of the Extreme Northwest, And, Tribes of Western Washington and Northwestern Oregon During the past ten years much of my time has been spent among the Indians of the Rocky Mountain region. In the earlier years I collected many short vocabularies of the various tribes with whom I met. From time to time, as opportunity afforded, many of these vocabularies were enlarged. I soon learned to enlist Indians in my party, and to seize every opportunity of conversing with them in their own language, in order that I might acquire as much knowledge of their tongues as possible. A large number of vocabularies were collected, some embracing but a few hundred words, others two or three thousand each. These Indians, among whom I traveled, belonged chiefly to one great family - the Numas, a stock embracing many languages, and several of the languages having more than one dialect. I also made notes on the grammatic characteristics of these languages to the extent of my opportunity. In the mean time some of my assistants collected vocabularies furnishing important additional material. Much of this related to families other than the one in which I was making especial studies. In such a hasty review of the general literature of this subject as I was able to make, my attention was attracted to some interesting publications in the Overland Monthly, from the pen of Mr. Stephen Powers, and soon a correspondence was begun, which finally resulted in my receiving from that gentleman a large amount of linguistic and other ethnographic material, the results of his labors for many years among the Indians of California. From time to time other vocabularies were sent me from various persons throughout the Rocky Mountain region.

Book A Guide to the Indian Tribes of the Pacific Northwest

Download or read book A Guide to the Indian Tribes of the Pacific Northwest written by Robert H. Ruby and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2013-02-27 with total page 561 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Native peoples of the Pacific Northwest inhabit a vast region extending from the Rocky Mountains to the Pacific Ocean, and from California to British Columbia. For more than two decades, A Guide to the Indian Tribes of the Pacific Northwest has served as a standard reference on these diverse peoples. Now, in the wake of renewed tribal self-determination, this revised edition reflects the many recent political, economic, and cultural developments shaping these Native communities. From such well-known tribes as the Nez Perces and Cayuses to lesser-known bands previously presumed "extinct," this guide offers detailed descriptions, in alphabetical order, of 150 Pacific Northwest tribes. Each entry provides information on the history, location, demographics, and cultural traditions of the particular tribe. Among the new features offered here are an expanded selection of photographs, updated reading lists, and a revised pronunciation guide. While continuing to provide succinct histories of each tribe, the volume now also covers such contemporary—and sometimes controversial—issues as Indian gaming and NAGPRA. With its emphasis on Native voices and tribal revitalization, this new edition of the Guide to the Indian Tribes of the Pacific Northwest is certain to be a definitive reference for many years to come.

Book Latin American Indigenous Warfare and Ritual Violence

Download or read book Latin American Indigenous Warfare and Ritual Violence written by Richard J. Chacon and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This groundbreaking multidisciplinary book presents significant essays on historical indigenous violence in Latin America from Tierra del Fuego to central Mexico. The collection explores those uniquely human motivations and environmental variables that have led to the native peoples of Latin America engaging in warfare and ritual violence since antiquity. Based on an American Anthropological Association symposium, this book collects twelve contributions from sixteen authors, all of whom are scholars at the forefront of their fields of study. All of the chapters advance our knowledge of the causes, extent, and consequences of indigenous violence—including ritualized violence—in Latin America. Each major historical/cultural group in Latin America is addressed by at least one contributor. Incorporating the results of dozens of years of research, this volume documents evidence of warfare, violent conflict, and human sacrifice from the fifteenth century to the twentieth, including incidents that occurred before European contact. Together the chapters present a convincing argument that warfare and ritual violence have been woven into the fabric of life in Latin America since remote antiquity. For the first time, expert subject-area work on indigenous violence—archaeological, osteological, ethnographic, historical, and forensic—has been assembled in one volume. Much of this work has heretofore been dispersed across various countries and languages. With its collection into one English-language volume, all future writers—regardless of their discipline or point of view—will have a source to consult for further research.
