Native American Home Pages - Nations Tribal Connections in the Pacific Northwest - connecting American Indian/Alaska Native Communities to Health Resources on the Internet. Added 10/7/99ALGONQUIAN If you are looking for information on the "Algonquian Indians", you can stop right now. "Algonquian" is not the name of a Native tribe or nation; it is a language family, like "romance" or "indo-european". There are no "Algonquian Indians"; but there are Algonquin Indians in Canada. Native American Indian Tribes: Federally Recognized Tribes This page not only lists all the federally recognized tribes of Native Americans, but also has links from those tribes for their official websites, stories and legends, books, photographs and artwork. This is a work very much in progress and will take a long while to complete [unless you all help with this resource]. Right now I have links to over 150 website locations from about 26 different tribes on this page. I will try to add comprehensive links to an additional one or two tribes each month (moon). Latest Update: Southern Ute lndian Tribe of the Southern Ute Reservation, Colorado; 2 December, 2004 To use this website, scroll down the page to the listing of tribes, use the Quick Index below, or the Searching Tip to see if the tribe you are interested in has been researched for links.

Amérindiens ou Indiens Autochtones de l'Amérique. (L'appellation d'Amérindiens tend à l'emporter sur celle d'Indiens.) Introduction Les Indiens d'Amérique du Nord fascinent : leurs cultures présentent une grande diversité, tant linguistique que matérielle et sociologique, mais en même temps on pressent chez eux une profonde unité culturelle. L'histoire a réservé un sort particulièrement cruel aux Indiens d'Amérique du Nord, victimes durant trois siècles de Blancs toujours plus avides d'espaces. La diversité des modes de vie traditionnels On peut nettement tracer trois zones culturelles distinctes : l'Ouest, qui ignore totalement l'agriculture, les Indiens y vivant exclusivement de cueillette, de chasse et de pêche ; l'Est, qui combine ces activités avec un peu de culture du maïs ; le Sud-Ouest des Pueblos, enfin, où les techniques agricoles sont fort développées. Les économies de l'Est étaient plus diversifiées : chasse aux cervidés et aux castors, pêche, complétées par un peu d'agriculture. Introduction Č. J.

Coyote and the Columbia: From Native American Myths at Americanfolklore From the Sahaptin/Salishan Tribes retold by S. One day, Coyote was walking along. "I would like a cloud," Coyote said. So a cloud came and made some shade for Coyote. "I would like more clouds," he said. "How about some rain," said Coyote. "More rain," Coyote demanded. "I would like a creek to put my feet in," said Coyote. "It should be deeper," said Coyote. The creek became a huge, swirling river. "I'm not dead," Coyote told them, and they flew away. That is how the Columbia River began.

Mythologie amérindienne : En débarquant en Amérique les européens rencontrèrent des peuples étranges, aux coutumes singulières, qu’ils appelèrent « Indiens » puisqu'à l'origine ils avaient cru découvrir les Indes. Ultérieurement afin d'éviter la confusion avec l'Inde on les appela les indiens d'Amérique ou amérindiens. Les mythologies amérindiennes sont constituées d'un ensemble complexe de coutumes sociales et culturelles qui permettent d'établir une relation avec le sacré et le surnaturel. Vous allez voir que si vous avez regardé les dessins animés américains certains protagonistes de ces mythes vous sont familiers Les mythologies des amérindiens étaient aussi nombreuses que les différentes nations indiennes qui habitaient le pays. Chaque tribu avait sa propre interprétation du monde surnaturel et de la place qu'occupait chaque individu. Panthéon • Le premier englobe les mythes relatifs à la création, qui décrivent l'origine du cosmos et la corrélation entre ses divers éléments.

Integrating pronunciation into classroom activities In my work as a teacher trainer I have been surprised at how often experienced teachers are reluctant to tackle pronunciation issues in class. I can think of at least two reasons why pronunciation tends to be neglected: firstly, the lack of clear guidelines and rules available in course books, and secondly the fact that isolated exercises once a month do not seem to have much of an effect. This is not surprising, however; like all other areas of language teaching, pronunciation needs constant attention for it to have a lasting effect on students, which means integrating it into daily classroom procedures. I find that addressing issues regularly during the language feedback or group correction stage of a lesson helps to focus learners' attention on its importance and leads to more positive experiences.
