Eastern Woodlands

Eastern Woodlands Cultures Small nomadic bands of hunter gatherers Seasonal migrations - by ocean in summer, inland in winter Main source of food - large mammals (moose, deer) Minimal political organization - bands led by skilled hunters, tribe governed by loosely organized system of regional chiefs Main tribal groups - Mi'kmaq (NS), Malecite (NB), Algonquin (Quebec & Ontario) Traditional Mi'kmaq star

Southern Lowlads/Iroquois Cultures Sedentary agricultural culture Semi-permanent villages spread across southern Ontario and northern New York State Main food supply - cultivated corn, supplemented with wild game Complex tribal organization emerged as a result of sizeable population and secure food supply Two major groups - Huron (s. Ontario) & Iroquois Confederacy (n. New York State)

Plains Natives/Interior Plains Nomadic hunters w hose lifestyle revolved around the buffalo hunt Spent summers on central plains hunting migratory buffalo herds, winters in foothills hunting small game Obtained horses in 16th century (brought to America by Spaniards) No contact with Europeans until late 18th century (fur trade) Major conflicts in late 19th century as European settlement spread westward Major tribes - Blackfoot Confederacy (3 tribes), Assiniboine, Plains Cree

West Coast Natives/Pacific Coast Inhabited islands and coastal areas of present day British Columbia Lifestyle based on abundant marine food supply, particularly salmon Houses, canoes and totem poles built out of cedar, a vital rsources available in abundant supply Permanent villages allowed for development of complex tribal system Social classes within tribes caused by differences in wealth (nobility, commmoners, laborers) Major tribes - Nootka, Bella Coola, Nisgaa

Subarctic Natives Inhabited northern regions of Canada south of Arctic tundra Nomadic hunter-gatherers reliant on large mammals (moose, deer, caribou) Played a critical role in the northern fur trade as guides and suppliers of furs for Hudson's Bay Co. Major tribes - Naskapi. Woodland Cree, Chipewyan,

Arctic Peoples Most recently arrived of our native peoples, reaching Alaska about 1000 years ago and gradually spreading eastward across the Canadian Arctic Closely related culturally and genetically to the Arctic peoples of Europe and Asia Spent summers on Arctic tundra hunting caribou, winters along edge of ocean hunting seal on ice floes Furthest removed from contact with Europeans

Common Characteristics of Native Peoples Common world view based upon a close relationship to the land Humans viewed as integral part of environment, not dominant over it Close connection between natural and spiritual world

Common Characteristics of Native Peoples Native technologies reflected deep knowledge & understanding of environment Technologies based upon natural resources (bone, stone, wood) Survival dependent on adaptation to environment

Common Characteristics of Native Peoples All native societies possessed some government structure, although the level of organization varied significantly Small nomadic bands - egalitarian, group consensus Sedentary tribes - larger populations, centralized control
