The Iroquois Fur Trade Wars
[ send me this paper ]
(6 pp) "As to the natives of this country, I find them entirely savage and wild, strangers to all decency, yea, uncivil and stupid as garden poles, proficient in all wickedness and godlessness; devilish men, who serve nobody but the Devil …" Reverend Jonas Michaelius in 1628. This attitude, generally expressed by the colonists, allowed them to trade "trinkets" for furs. Various internal structures were already in place in the Iroquois Confederacy, which then dovetailed into the desire for European goods, and accelerated warfare among the woodland tribes. The fur trade was definitely a component in play, but not the actual cause of increased and deadly warfare, nor the accumulation of territory. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

(6 pp) "As to the natives of this country, I find them entirely savage and wild, strangers to all decency, yea, uncivil and stupid as garden poles, proficient in all wickedness and godlessness; devilish men, who serve nobody but the Devil …" Reverend Jonas Michaelius in 1628. This attitude, generally expressed by the colonists, allowed them to trade "trinkets" for furs, but never understand their neighbors. Various internal structures were already in place in the Iroquois Confederacy, which then dovetailed into the desire for European goods, and accelerated warfare among the woodland tribes. The fur trade was definitely a component in play, but not the actual cause of increased and deadly warfare. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

The Klondike Gold Rush: Impacts to the Indigenous Peoples
[ send me this paper ]
A 4 page overview of the years leading up to and following the Klondike Gold Rush. The author traces the various points of contact and contends that while the fur trade, whaling activities, and even a burgeoning salmon fishery led to more and more frequent contact between whites and indigenous inhabitant, that contact would be nothing in comparison to that which would result with the Gold Rush. Whole towns would spring up seemingly overnight as people flocked to the region. Whole cultures were decimated. Bibliography lists 8 sources.

The Lakota Sun Dance: An Overview of the Interconnectivity With all Aspects of Lakota Culture and the Changes Incurred During the Reservation Period
[ send me this paper ]
A 15 page overview of this sacred reflection of Lakota culture. The author points out that the Sun Dance is intertwined with such cultural elements as the Sacred Pipe, Lakota oral history, and even the most simplistic aspects of their ceremonial lives. The Sun Dance, after all is a circular ceremony and one with no beginning and no end. Although the Dancers of the Sun Dance gather and actually dance only at specific times, the Sun Dance interlaces all aspects of traditional Lakota culture. The author emphasizes that only the traditional Lakota people understand the full degree to which the Sun Dance interlaces their culture. Only the traditional Lakota, therefore can understand the full meaning of this ceremony and many, in fact, contend that the truths of the Sun Dance are sacred and should not be shared with non-Indians. Consequently, this paper attempts to provide a respectful yet informative overview of a very complex aspect of Lakota life while not intruding upon the sacred nature of that life. Bibliography lists 7 sources.
