  • DreamCatchers Legend states that the DreamCatchers should be hung over the sleeping person's bed so that the sacred web of life can catch the bad dreams. The good dreams pass through the center hole and are fulfilled in the sleeper's destiny. The bad dreams caught in the web will disappear with the first light of day. Mandalas They are sacred symbols of the Universe. In many tribes they are variations of dance shields used by the Plains Nations. They are adorned with designs and fetishes that have special meaning to the owner and are meant to bring them happiness and prosperity. Some use the mandela for meditation and prayer.
Shield Plains Indian - 1880s Photo by Tony Walsh
  • Shields Among the Plains Nations, a war shield was made of buffalo hide from around the neck because it was thicker. The Warrior's shield was his "medicine". It protected him from harm and gave him special sacred powers. The painting on the shield and the Scared objects tied to it, all had special meaning to the owner and those Sacred qualities were in turn given to the owner of the shield. Ceremonial Lances Ceremonial lances as the name implies were used mostly for dances, parades, and pow-wows. Most of the lances are tipped with a flint spearhead. The overall length is about six or seven feet with twenty-four eagle feathers attached to one side of the shaft. Red cloth is used to attach the feathers to the shaft. The shaft may be oiled or painted.

Did you know that Wakulla Springs, just south of Tallahassee , was the site of filming for underwater scenes in Johnny Weismuller and Maureen O'Sullivan's Tarzan's Secret Treasure ? This film was the last time Tarzan and Jane enjoyed a jaunt in the jungle together. Their next film, Tarzan's New York Adventure , took the couple to the Big Apple. Unfortunately, big city life proved to be too much for Jane, who never appeared in another film with the king of the jungle again. Help! Home Interests Destinations ...

Native American Interdisciplinary Educational Unit
An AskERIC Lesson Plan Submitted by: Cleo J. Bellah
School or Affiliation: Gardner Elementary School, Gardner, CO
Endorsed by: These lesson plans are the result of the work of the teachers who have attended the Columbia Education Center's Summer Workshop. CEC is a consortium of teachers from 14 western states dedicated to improving the quality of education in the rural, western, United States, and particularly the quality of math and science Education. CEC uses Big Sky Telegraph as the hub of their telecommunications network that allows the participating teachers to stay in contact with their trainers and peers that they have met at the Workshops. Date: May 1994
Description:
The Native American has for hundreds of years been stereotyped. To help children understand that what they see in movies and television is not always historically accurate, I teach this unit. Grade Level(s): Subject(s):
  • Interdisciplinary Social Studies/US History
Goal:
The purpose to this unit and activities is to motivate and to make learning fun and interesting, while covering most subjects and concepts required by the district's curriculum. This unit can be taught at any time of the school year. I've done it in October and ending it at Thanksgiving, when the parents join us for a Thanksgiving dinner, and also in January and ending it at the end of February or the middle of March where we culminate it with a play for the parents, community and student body.

NATIVE AMERICAN CRAFTS
The annual Santa Fe Indian Market in mid-August in Santa Fe is considered by many to be the premier showcase of contemporary native American art and crafts, drawing participants from all over the continent. This juried show confers prestigious awards in all mediums, in both traditional and innovative categories. Other tribal events, such as the Gallup Inter-Tribal Ceremonial each August, also include exhibitions. Traditional crafts are a major source of livelihood for many of the Pueblos, and are well represented by many galleries and dealers. The Institute of American Indian Arts has for decades drawn talented students from throughout the Indian world, and has sown the seeds of contemporary fine arts activity. The school has recently fielded a beautiful new museum one block east of the downtown Santa Fe Plaza. For more than two decades, art galleries have solidly supported current trends, establishing the leading market for groundbreaking Indian painters and sculptors. The top few of these artists have achieved international mainstream status.

    American Indian Arts and Crafts "Surf Day"
    The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) and the Indian Arts and Crafts Board (IACB) of the U.S. Department of the Interior have joined forces to combat the deceptive marketing of arts and crafts products as made by American Indians. Representatives from both agencies have surfed the Internet to locate websites that advertise American Indian arts and crafts.

    Artists' Views of Native Americans
    The Indian was a favorite subject of many European and American born artists during the nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. There was a wide range of viewpoints ex- pressed in this art, with an idealized image of the Indian as a "noble savage" being a frequent choice. Other artists saw their role as one of documenting an accurate picture of Indians and their society in a time when it was already disappearing.

    Photo courtesy New Mexico Magazine weaving cotton articles of clothing, fashioning jewelry out of shell, gems and turquoise, crafting coiled and wicker baskets and making hand-built "coil-and-scrape" pottery; the Hopi and Zuni fashioned ceremonial katsina (kachina) dolls. But the Spanish colonialists altered some practices and influenced new methods. For example, pueblo artisans began working with metal in the 19th century, crafting native jewelry with silver and turquoise (believed to promote well-being). And in 1821, the Santa Fe Trail ushered in a stream of foreign commodities arriving on wagon train, later multiplied by the railroads. Today, the art of New Mexico's 19 pueblos consists of the antique (1880s and later revivalist forms) and contemporary.
