2This is who made the decisions and rules in the
Iroquois League
3The Great Council, which is still practiced today
among modern day Iroquois people
4These are three forest resources and what they
were used for.
5Wood for homes and tools rivers and lakes to
drink, wash, water crops, and fish animals for
hides (clothing, blankets, housing), bones (for
tools),meat.
6This was a way the Iroquois hunters showed a deep
connection to and respect for nature
7They spoke to and thanked the animals they killed.
8This was why longhouses had shared, centrally
located fires
9Since many families lived in the longhouse, it
was easier to share a fire than make separate
ones. Also, fewer, shared fires kept smoke down
inside the longhouse and were safer than having
many fires.
10This is the Iroquois League and why it was formed
11The Iroquois League was formed by a group of 5,
and then 6 Native American tribes. Its purpose
was to establish peace and cooperation.
Together, all members made decisions that
affected all the tribes in the League.
12Most Plains people got their food by these two
methods
13Farming and hunting buffalo
14These are three ways horses affected the lives of
the Plains people
15They could hunt buffalo easier, traveling was
much faster and they could transport more,
warfare with enemy tribes was easier
16This is how Plains Indians measured their wealth
17In horses (not dollars like us!)
18This is where many Cheyenne Indians live today
19Montana
20This is how tepees are the same as lodges (1
way). This is how they are different (whats
unique about each?)
21Both are a form of shelter for the Plains
Indians. Lodges are permanent homes made of
earth-packed walls built over a hole. Tepees are
mobile and used when on the hunt. They are made
of poles and animal skin walls.
22This describes the climate of the Southwest
Desert Cultural Region
23Hot and arid (dry)
24This is why Hopi built their homes on the top of
mesas and had no doors on the first level of
their homes
25To protect them from enemies and wild animals
26This is true of Hopi today (2 things)
27They blend old ways and new ways. They still
have their capital city of Oraibi. Many Hopi
live on a reservation.
28This is the connection between Pueblo and Anasazi
housing.
29Their housing customs are similar. They are
built of mud and clay (adobe) and are apartment
building-like, rising several stories high. Both
built their homes at the top of mesas, or up high
30This ceremony honored the Kachinas and asked for
their help
31The Hopi Dance
32This is a Potlatch
33A party where the hosts give gifts to the guests
to show generosity and wealth
34This is the main role of the shaman in Kwakiutl
culture
35They were healers and cured illnesses, often by
performing special dances.
36These people could become a shaman in Kwakiutl
culture
37Men and woman
38This was the cultural purpose of the totem pole
and the potlatch
39They were both a way to show wealth
40This is why Kwakiutl made clothing out of cedar
bark.
41They used the natural resources available to them.
42These are four foods eaten by the Kwakiutl. This
is why they ate these foods.
43Wild game, fish, nuts, berries, seals, whales.
They did not need to grow food because there was
such an abundance of natural resources available.
All they had to do was hunt and gather.
