Myths-Legends From all areas of America E-Books Read books on-line Biographies - Face's from the past Picture Talk "Pictographs" This site is constantly under construction. Be kind! Since Bubba hasn't found any links to any Native Americans while doing his genealogy, he can't claim first hand knowledge! So I have had to depend on the many books and web sites I have read and studied for the things you find on my pages. I am trying to be fair in all cases by showing both sides of any story. I have seen that many Native American sites are angry over treatment received at the hands of our government. In most cases I find I agree that the Indians in general were treated with little honor. Since my descendants have been in America since 1634, we probably were part of the problem. I can only say "I'll do my best to pay honor to the past by keeping the facts straight, and show both sides where needed." I hope you enjoy my efforts. -Bubba Poetry Past and present Art Past and present Religion Beliefs Native American Links Resources - Organizations With thanks to the many wonderful sites on the Web with an endless resource of information.

64. Native American Spirituality Essay about landbased spirituality, creation mythology and immanence. http://www.greenspirit.org.uk/resources/NatAmerSpirit.htm

TOPIC: Native American Spirituality Editor Donna Ladkin The papers relating to this topic are: Carol Lee Sanchez. Animal, Vegetable, and Mineral. Jack D. Forbes. Indigenous Americans: Spirituality and Ecos (LINK) Introduction to the Topic There were over one thousand different tribal peoples indigenous to the North American continent when Europeans first arrived in that territory. Each tribe had its own set of festivals, rituals, and spiritual beliefs, therefore to write of 'Native American spirituality' as one entity would be erroneous. However, common features are apparent across tribal peoples, pointing to some of the assumptions which inform the spiritual beliefs and practices of those indigenous to the North American continent . Spirituality played a central role in the lives of many of these peoples, for as Angie Debo writes: he [the Indian] was deeply religious. The familiar shapes of earth, the changing sky, the wild animals he knew, were joined with his own spirit in mystical communion. The powers of nature, the personal quest of the soul, the acts of daily life, the solidarity of the tribeall were religious, and were sustained by dance and ritual. This piece attempts to highlight some of the key aspects which Native American peoples share in terms of their spirituality. There is much that has been written in this area, and the brief list of suggested books I offer may provide a starting point for those wishing to pursue this area further.

CHANGING ONES Will Roscoe's Home Page Sign Guestbook View Guestbook Welcome! For over two decades now I've been on an odyssey seeking the answers to three questions central to the meaning of being queer today: who are we? where did we come from? what are we for? My answers to these questions are part of the books I have written, edited, and contributed to. I hope to use this website, as well, to share some of what I have learned. This site offers information about my books and articles, excerpts from articles, and recent work-in-progress. There's background on the Native American two-spirit tradition and its parallels around the world, queer mythology, lesbian/gay culture and history, and Applied Meditation.

by Ron Cherry E.R.E.C., ( bibliography P.O. Box 8003 Belle Glade, FL 33430 USA. Butterly Kachina Blackfoot Symbol Awatobi Symbol Hopi Buterfly Dance Because of the beauty, power of flight, and complete metamorphosis found in butterflies an moths, these insects frequently are found in Native American myths. In an early article, Grinnell ( ) called attention to the belief held by the Blackfeet that dreams are brought to us in sleep by a butterfly. Their sign for a butterfly was a design roughly in the shape of a maltese cross with one arm horizontal and the other verticle. This sign was painted on a lodge to indicate that the style and method of painting the lodge were taught to the lodge owner in a dream. It was also the custom for a Blackfoot woman to embroider the sign of a butterfly on a small peice of buckskin and tie this in her baby's hair when she wishes it to go to sleep. At the same time, she sings to the child a lulaby in which the butterfly is asked to come flying about and put the child to sleep. Grinnell did not learn why or how the butterfly bring sleep and dreams. However, he did note that the Blackfeet stated that the butterfly is soft and pretty and moves gently and that if you look at it for a long time you will go to sleep. The butterfly was also a prominent figure in the myth and ritual of the Hopi. This insect occurs frequently on prehistoric pottery, in a ritual "

My Favorite Links   Prejudice still abounds in this day and age. In American history, it was the Native American who took the worst blow. Here is a peaceful people who saved the pilgrims from starvation by feeding them and showing them how to farm and identify edible plants. Less than a century later, how were they thanked for life? By slaughter, and then telling them where they could and could not live, what they could and could not do. I heard a comedian once say, during his routine, "Yeah, just shoot them Indians! They were trespassing on our land before we ever got here."   Savages they were called. Why? Because they fought to protect Mother Earth and their homes? Just as anyone else would protect their home. And the Native American was called uncivilized and savage! Their beliefs were merely different than the pilgrims and those who followed them to this land.

Topics African Age of Reason Alchemy Americana ... Buy books: Native American Native American Religions A long-standing problem with this section (and several others at this site relating to traditional peoples' spiritual beliefs) has been the lack of authoritative information. We are in the process of expanding this section by scanning public domain ethnographic accounts on specific Native American religious and spiritual practices. We are fortunate that there is a wealth of such material available, which makes it so much more puzzling why more of it is not on the Internet yet. The study of Native Americans by anthroplogists has had its share of bad science and ethical problems. However, the texts we are in the process of scanning were written by 19th and 20th Century ethnographers who were known for their careful and respectful approach to the people they studied. These were scholars who lived for years with the people they studied, and obtained permission to transcribe their oral sacred literature. In addition, there are several texts in preparation which are based on written documents by native shamans. Hopefully this will balance out some of the other texts which are second or third hand accounts and not as reliable. This index has several sub-indices: Aztec Religion Native Californian Religion Cherokee Religion Hopi Religion ... Tales of the North American Indians by Stith Thompson [1929]

L I V I N G M Y T H S Native American Myths Many Native American myths could equally well be called folktales, in that they seem to be about ordinary people, not gods. However, in so far as one can generalize, the Native American attitude is that everything is animated by divinity. Hence ordinary people, animals and places are divine. In many cases the people are not even named, or they are known by a convenient tag, such as Rabbit Boy – who was brought up by rabbits. Nor is there much attempt to characterize them, since they stand for universal principles which are considered to be more important than individual traits. Native American spirituality Narrative types White Buffalo Woman Commentary ... Native myths in brief (new) Whereas Greek myths were shaped and ordered by classical authors, few Native American myths were written down before the late nineteenth century. Thus the apparent contradictions and inconsistencies of the right-brain oral tradition are still very much present. Native American spirituality Among all tribes there is a strong sense that behind all individual spirits and personifications of the divine, there is a single creative life-force, sometimes called ‘the Great Mystery’, which expresses itself throughout the universe, in every human, animal, tree and grain of sand. Every story, too, is a working out of this life-force.

Home Page Learning and Teaching Strategies in dealing with Native American Oral Literatures Andrew Wiget is a distinguished scholar in this field - note the bibliographical entries below. Here are some of his comments: Culture is a system of beliefs and values through which a group of people structure their experience of the world. By working with this definition of culture, which is very close to the way current criticism understands the impact of ideology upon literature, we can begin to pluralize our notion of the world and understand that other peoples can organize their experience in different ways, and dramatize their experience of the world through different symbolic forms. If culture is a system of beliefs and values by which people organize their experience of the world, then it follows that forms of expressive culture such as these (creation) myths should embody the basic beliefs and values of the people who create them. These beliefs and values can be roughly organized in three areas: (1) beliefs about the nature of the physical world; (2) beliefs about social order and appropriate behavior; and (3) beliefs about human nature and the problem of good and evil.
