While we know our northern friends may not feel it, in the South, Spring is
here. So we thought we'd share a few of our gardening sites appropriate
for this time of the year. Along with gardening, there's grilling, and getting
ready to diet so that you can fit back into that bathing suit this summer!
The following books were
used to provide Indian Tribal Histories
The
Handbook of American Indians North of Mexico
by Fredrick W. Hodge, was compiled by some
of the best and well known Indian
researchers of that time. Many of
which wrote only about specific tribes.
The work began in 1873 and was submitted to
the Bureau of Ethnology for publication in
1905. There are approximately 2,500
tribes listed in the book, most of which you
will find on our pages listed as
Indian Tribal Histories or
Indian Bands, Gens and Clans
The Aboriginal Races of North America
by Samuel G. Drake, provides the reader with
an enumeration of the tribes known at that
time and endeavors to divide North America
into certain districts, each which include
all Indians speaking the same or dialects of
the same language.
The Indian Tribes of North America,
by John R. Swanton, the author divides the
United States by regions and places the many
tribes in that area. This work is not
completely accurate and many of the tribes
moved in a wide area especially for hunting
and winter camps.
