Abstract:

The Powwow is generally associated with the indigenous peoples of North America. The Powwow is a cultural tradition of Native American communities that has been celebrated for centuries. Native Americans have reappropriated the word, limiting the meaning to a primarily secular event involving group singing and ballroom dancing. Although there are various types of Powwows, today, the focus is always on a dance competition organized by class, gender, and age that attracts hundreds to tens of thousands of people. This paper focuses on the significant annual Powwows held on Native American reserva

A key science understanding developed over the past 75 years has been that Native people did not occupy North America (or any place in the so-called New World) longer than 12,000 years before present (BP), thus they could neither have experienced nor understood any event in the late Pleistocene interglacial period (128,000 BP to 11,700 BP).

Abstract:

Responding to the question, “Whose North America is it?,” this essay argues North America does not belong to anyone. As a Sonoran Desert Tohono O’odham said of the mountain: “Nobody owns it. It owns itself.” Contrasting Native American and Euro-American views of the natural world, the essay maintains that European immigrants introduced the startling concept of Cartesian duality. Accepting a division between spiritual and material, they viewed the natural world as physical matter, devoid of spirituality. North America’s First People saw it differently: they perceived the Earth/Universe as a spi

She concludes that both works raise pressing methodological questions about how historians of religion can center the lives of Native American people in their work.

AbstractThis article considers the repatriation of some the most ancient human skeletal remains from the United States as two sorts of ending: their end as objects of scientific study, and their end as ancient non-American Indian settlers of North America. In the 1990s, some prominent physical anthropologists and archaeologists began replacing ‘Palaeoindian’ with the new category of ‘Palaeoamerican’ to characterize the western hemisphere's earliest inhabitants. Kennewick Man/the Ancient One, a nearly nine-thousand-year-old skeleton, convinced some anthropologists that contemporary Native Ameri

Abstract:

Gaming has deep historical roots among the Kyrgyz people and tribal people in the Americas. It is connected to rituals of play and storytelling that link the peoples to their communal origins and destiny. Traditional games played by American Indians had cultural or religious significance, and gaming was often a sacred act connected to myth, legend, and ritual. Games were also used for entertainment and as a teaching tool (Fairebaugh, Tippeconnic,2019, p.76). For the Kyrgyz people, games have been played since ancient times and were a moment of truce during warring times between tribes. There w

Our analysis indicates that American dogs were not derived from North American wolves. Instead, American dogs form a monophyletic lineage that likely originated in Siberia and dispersed into the Americas alongside people. After the arrival of Europeans, native American dogs almost completely disappeared, leaving a m

Abstract Across the early Americas, goods traveled long-distance on the backs of Indigenous porters. Related to issues of rank, status, and gender, “burdening” proved especially contentious in the North American Southeast, where Natives increasingly viewed long-distance cargo-carrying as a dangerous and degrading occupation that implied subservience to European colonizers. Indigenous cargo-carrying persisted in Spanish Florida and English Carolina, despite regulation and periodic efforts to improve transportation, taking a heavy toll from Native peoples. Eventually, technological changes reduc

Abstract:

The first inhabitants of America must have come from Siberia, from the extreme north of Asia, and entered the American continent during the last glaciation, which began 110,000 years ago and ended around 10,000 BP. They had a magical worldview, felt closely connected to nature, and expressed their way of thinking through various rituals, ceremonies, offerings, songs, melodies and dances, while the new environment prompted them to create traditions, cults, and myths about their origin. At the same time, the indigenous people of America introduced a pantheon of deities for each event, for each f

Abstract:

This review essay focuses on representational practices of Native Americans in the exhibition Indianer – Ureinwohner Nordamerikas (Indians – Indigenous Peoples of North America) in Germany. Through an analysis of the exhibition contents, it aims to assess used representational practices and discuss how this exhibition deals with common stereotypes of Native Americans. It argues that, while the exhibition contests many common stereotypes, it also consciously or unconsciously reproduces a few others. In the conclusion it tries to find the reasons why this is so, despite the fact that the exhibit

Cummings' poems, which are presented in lowercase, signify a particular idiosyncrasy of orthography. This structural novelty [or innovation] makes a long-lasting impression on Cummings’ readers and contributes to the enduring impact of his poetry. For Bear, this is symbolic in that the lowercase me

AbstractThis article seeks to define common ground from which to build a more integrated approach to the persistence of indigenous societies in North America. Three concepts are discussed—identity, practice, and context—that may prove useful for the development of archaeologies of persistence by allowing us to counter terminal narratives and essentialist concepts of cultural identity that are deeply ingrained in scholarly and popular thinking about Native American societies. The use of these concepts is illustrated in an example that shows how current archaeological research is challenging lon

Abstract Vi Hilbert, collector, performer and activist who worked with the folklore material of the northwestern region, has found somebody to follow in her footsteps in the promotion of the local culture and literature. This somebody is Sherman Alexie, a writer, publicist, poet and scriptwriter who has published around 30 books to date. Like Vi Hilbert, Sherman Alexie, who is three generations younger, proclaims his Native American heritage. He represents it and helps other readers and interested people understand, or join the path towards building this identity. His texts are characterised b

Abstract:

This study tries to show probable linguistic and cultural kinship between the Turkish people in Asia and the Native Peoples of Americas, i.e., the north, central and south Americas. In this study, we have shown that the use of the Turkish words "ata" and "apa" for "father and ancestor" and "ana" for "mother" and their derivatives are quite common in the languages of considerable number of the Native Peoples of Americas. The study shows that these three words, i.e., "ata", "apa" and "ana" are probably among the oldest living words in the human languages. In addition, this study points out some

Indigenous people throughout the Circumpolar North experience different patterns of cancer incidence and mortality. The Alaska Native Tumor Registry (ANTR) was established for cancer surveillance among Alaska Native and American Indian (ANAI) people living in Alaska, with data available going back to 1969. Every 5 years, the ANTR releases a comprehensive report on cancer among AN people; latest study provides 50 years of cancer surveillance data.

Abstract:

Roger Williams (1603-1683) and Louis Nicolas (1634-1682?) discuss the native people and religions of North America in different ways. Each wrote a book about an indigenous language; both describe Native customs and religious practices. Both of them believe that any non-Christian is lost, but their references to indigenous religions are different in tone, and reflect their positions in 17th-century controversies. In an apparent paradox based on theological grounds, the man who found New England Puritans not pure enough speaks more tolerantly of non-Christian religions than does the more broadly

Abstract:

Deleuze supported the Palestinian struggle for freedom from the 1970s until his death in 2003, denouncing their colonisation by Israel. His comparison of their struggle with the history of the Native American situation in the US was at the time both daring and popular among left-wing circles. This article discusses how Indigenous people today in North America, Australia or elsewhere in the world see the issue of Palestinian indigeneity. If many Indigenous people protest in solidarity and call for a boycott on Israel for the ongoing genocide in Gaza, others align with the 2024 Israeli governmen

The European practice of conceptualizing their enemies so that they could dispose of them in ways that were not in accord with their own Christian principles is well documented. In the Americas, this began with Columbus's designation of certain Indians as man-eaters and was continued by those Spanish who also wished to enslave the natives or eliminate them altogether. The word “cannibal” was invented to describe such people, and the Spanish were legally free to treat cannibals in ways that were forbidden to them in their relations with other people. By the late fifteenth century the word canni

This paper considers the topic of sacred spaces in North America through the vantage offered by Chacoan roads, monumental avenues constructed by Ancestral Four Corners people of the US Southwest from ca. AD 850-1150. I begin with a critique of the concept of the “sacred” as applied to the Chacoan past, suggesting instead that the Indigenous North American concept of power (in the sense of potent, generative force infused throughout the environment) offers a more culturally relevant framing. Next, I present three examples of locations along Chacoan roads that I argue were recognized as places o
