Howdy Melinda! love the photos and that knife sheath with the bead work is really great!
Thank you. I gave almost all the beadwork I did away, so it was a pleasant surprise to see that knife sheath here in these old photos.
That's so awesome! And is that your friend who is Chippewa? That's one tribe I know nothing about. Were they farmers or hunter/gatherers?
Anishinabe tribes live all around the a Great Lakes and Canada. The women practiced farming and the men were the hunters and warriors.
Howdy today Melinda! I just got started on steemit for the day, been out mowing so of course I'm way behind again, how's it going with you?
Thanks for the information, so they weren't nomadic but they were both farmers and hunters, they had to be I guess. both, I mean. I bet they were also good fishermen.
I know they gathered wild rice that grows on the lake shores and they collected sap from the maple trees to make maple syrup. They are spearfisher men, and have battled with the state of Wisconsin in court and with local residents to protect their treaty rights so that they can continue to fish. Local fishermen are resentful that the Native Americans have more diverse fishing rights than they do and it has led to violence at the boat landings and people in big boats creating wakes around the smaller boats of the Native fishermen to try to disrupt the number of fish they are able to spear.
oh my gosh Melinda, what is wrong with people?? Or should I say us stupid white people?
Because the same thing happens in the Northwest on the Shoshone reservation where they
can hunt anytime and the local white hunters get all angry and threatening because the whites
can only hunt in seasons.
Dang, it's their land so they should be able to hunt and fish to feed their families whenever they
need to.
That's interesting that rice grows that far North though, I had no idea.
Excellent. We may count ourselves very distant cousins. I was able to trace back our first nation's ancestry to an Ojibwe woman in the mid 18th century. The sheath was lovely.
Thank you! My family lore has it that my distant many greats grandmother was Cherokee, but I have never been able to document that.
Native Americans costumes are really impressive and cool! So bright! And people are so happy at the photos 💛
What a great memories!
