Native American Culture

Native American tribes are also many. They were many indigenous people who were usually located on the North American lands.

Some of these known tribes are Cherokee, Apache, Iroquois, Navajo, Sioux and Cheyenne. And aside from these, there are still other tribes that compose the Native Americans. During the World War II, some of the Navajo people are used as ‘Windtalkers’ in the movie, which stars Nicolas Cage, Adam Beach and many more. Their language is used in the movie to defeat the Americans’ enemies. As it is, their communications are always intercepted because Japanese and other allies know the American English language. Therefore, the Navajo language is used for communication purposes.

The Native American culture is wide and vast. They have sun dances to pray to the god of the sun to give them abundantly, war dances to let them be victorious, marriage gathering, marriage rules and restrictions, tepees, pipes, totem poles, moccasins, peace and so forth. For example in marriage rules and restrictions. The wives are separated from their husbands during their monthly cycle. In marriage gathering, all the people in the tribe are invited and share food, wine and dance until dawn. Their teepees are movable as Native Americans are like gypsies. They transfer their homes with them as they look for the abundance of food and water the depends on the different seasons. The Native American War was always constant in the years of the early settlers of Great Britain come to the Americas. They were the source of mishaps and conflicts as well as discrimination and oppression.
