    Extractions: Email this article to a friend By Paul Goble Washington, 30 May 2001 (RFE/RL) Indigenous peoples in both the great plains of the United States and the far north of the Russian Federation are increasing their share of the population in the areas of their traditional settlement and hence their claims to political power. A small part of this shift in the ethnic balance reflects new increases in the birthrate and life expectancies of some of the native populations, but most is the result of the departure of the former settler populations whites in the case of the United States and ethnic Russians and more generally Slavs in the case of Russia. Data from the 2000 U.S. census released last week provide a remarkable portrait of this change, one that may be duplicated in Russia when Moscow conducts its first census next year, the first since 1989. In the ten U.S. states in this region, total population has declined in some or even most of the counties, the administrative units by which these states are divided. In North Dakota, for example, population fell in 47 out of 53 counties over the last decade. And in some places, the number of residents per square mile has fallen below one, the Census Bureau's definition of a wilderness area. As a result and for the first time since white settlers displaced Indians more than a century ago, many of the formerly all-white counties in these states have seen their populations decline precipitously as young people move away to find jobs.

    Extractions: Cornplanter Chronicles is a story unlike any other story about a Native American nation and its war chief. The Seneca, a member of the Iroquois League of Six Nations, is the only tribe to survive intact to this day on their ancestral land. They are the only tribe in the United States that was never defeated by American armies and forced to accept the white man's terms. They fought on the losing side several times (The French against the British in the French and Indian War, and the British against the United States in the Revolutionary War), but in each case the war was lost elsewhere and they fought on. When it finally came in 1791, it was Cornplanter, head chief of the Seneca, who negotiated the terms and brought peace to the Alleghenies.

The categories in this classification are social-political constructs and should not be interpreted as being scientific or anthropological in nature. They are not to be used as determinants of eligibility for participation in any Federal program. The standards have been developed to provide a common language for uniformity and comparability in the collection and use of data on race and ethnicity by Federal agencies. The standards have five categories for data on race: American Indian or Alaska Native, Asian, Black or African American, Native Hawaiian or Other Pacific Islander, and White. There are two categories for data on ethnicity: "Hispanic or Latino," and "Not Hispanic or Latino."

    Extractions: no date Art pervaded all of Northwest Coast Indian culture. Even the most utilitarian objects such as spoons, fish clubs, and paddles were decorated. The two-dimensional art is founded on a system of rules which order design organization. Sculptural art demands that anatomical features be carved in certain ways, giving rise to distinct tribal styles. Hopefully those surfers wishing to explore the art further will gain some ability to reconcile regional, tribal and personal style as a result of this presentation. Art served two main purposes in coastal Indian life. On one hand it is a crest art- a totem pole, dancing headdress, house-frontal painting, or decorated blanket signaling the owner's mythic origins. this was most highly developed among the northwest tribes where inheritance was thorough the female line. Crest art was emphasized during potlatches and feasts and as such verified and validated the social system. On the other hand, art made the super natural world visible. The incredible array of creatures- human, animal and mythic that inhabit the minds and landscapes of Northwest Coast people are realized through the medium of dance dramas. The skill evident in plastic and graphic arts is only part of a continuum which extended into theater. Movement in dance can be likened to the flow of line in two-dimensional art. In flickering firelight, the bold sculptural planes of carvings alternately gathered shadow and reflected light as performers circled the dance floor. And it was the artist's role to render fantastic then creatures of both the real world and the mythic cosmos.

    Extractions: From the Big-Game Hunters who appeared on the continent as far back as 12,000 years ago to the Inuits plying the Alaskan waters today, the Native peoples of North America produced a culture remarkable for its vibrancy, breadth, and diversityand for its survival in the face of almost inconceivable trials. This book is at once a history of that culture and a celebration of its splendid variety. Rich in historical testimony and anecdotes and lavishly illustrated, it weaves a magnificent tapestry of Native American life reaching back to the earliest human records. A recognized expert in North American studies, Jonathan King interweaves his account with Native histories, from the arrival of the first Native Americans by way of what is now Alaska to their later encounters with Europeans on the continent's opposite coast, from their exchanges with fur traders to their confrontations with settlers and an ever more voracious American government. To illustrate this history, King draws on the extensive collections of the British Museumartwork, clothing, tools, and artifacts that demonstrate the wealth of ancient traditions as well as the vitality of contemporary Native culture. These illustrations, all described in detail, form a pictorial document of relations between Europeans and Native American peoplespeoples as profoundly different and as deeply related as the Algonquians and the Iroquois, the Chumash of California and the Inuipat of Alaska, the Cree and the Cherokeefrom their first contact to their complicated coexistence today.

    Extractions: The Settlement of the Americas: A New Prehistory, by Thomas D. Dillehay (Basic Books; $27.50) Bones, Boats, and Bison: Archeology and the First Colonization of Western North America, by E. James Dixon (University of New Mexico Press; cloth, $49.95; paperback, $24.95) The earliest migrants used various resources and habitats; only some of them hunted big game. Who's on First? By Anna Curtenius Roosevelt This attractively simple tale, still enshrined in some textbooks, is unraveling as a result of archaeological evidence accumulated over the past two decades. Nearly seventy years after excavations first revealed the Clovis big-game hunting culture, new sites and new dates in both North and South America are challenging Clovis's claim to priority. But a new consensus has not yet emerged. Instead, scholars are engaging in acrimonious public disputes while dramatic press releases with conflicting claims incite the media. Two new books on the first Americans offer to clarify the picture. One is by Thomas D. Dillehay, the T. Marshall Hahn Jr. Professor of Anthropology at the University of Kentucky, Lexington; the other is by E. James Dixon, the curator of archaeology at the Denver Museum of Natural History. Both books are definitely worth reading, but they require considerable effort and a critical eye. Both use terms and dating criteria inconsistently and contain inaccuracies or out-of-date information that will confuse the general reader.

    Extractions: Did Overhunting Cause the Mammoth to Become Extinct? Humans have lived in North America for at least 15,000 years, and many believe it may be much longer. It from the time of the Ice Age, or Pleistocene Epoch . The climate was much colder and it was a time of alternate expansions and retreats of the glaciers. During the time of the first people, the glaciers covered much of North America a as far south as what we know as Iowa, South Dakota, and Wisconsin. The first people were hunters of big game animals such as mammoth . By the time the glaciers retreated for the last time, many of these animals had become extinct. Some archaeologists believe it was due to changing climate. Others believe it was the result of overhunting by these first people. Whatever the case, on the Great Plains the mammoth had disappeared by about 8,000 years ago. Let's take a look at what scientists think about the first case of how climate caused culture to change on the northern Great Plains. The first people to live in North America were those who later became known as American Indians or Native Americans. Their own stories, told to generations, tell of how their peoples came to be. Most of their stories tell how the Creator made them, or how they were tricked into coming out of the ground, or how the world was created by mud brought up from the bottom of the ocean by turtle.

    Extractions: SEN's Indigenous Peoples Project (IPP) The IPP is a new project for SEN, however, our involvement in indigenous issues in Northern Eurasia goes back several years; and, significantly, the Earth-honoring worldview that is common to such cultures has informed SEN's work from its inception. We feel more strongly than ever that indigenous wisdom and experience is vital to the creation of global sustainable human culturethat we of the modern western culture have a lot to learn from these "First Nations". At the same time we recognize that native Siberians have, on the whole, been extremely marginalized over several centuries, in a manner akin to the fate of native peoples in North America. Given their profound commonalties, there is an urgent need for Siberian native groups to connect directly with their counterparts in North America for mutual benefit. Our Siberian indigenous partners have themselves requested such exchange and partnership. Southern Siberia is home to a large and diverse concentration of remaining indigenous peoples, estimated at from one to two hundred thousand. In the Altai alone there are a dozen distinct native groups, including the Telegiti and Tubalare. The Tuva and the Baikal regions also have their own unique ethnic groups. Virtually all of these groups would be adversely affected by the proposed road and gas pipeline through the Ukok Plateau, which in addition to its direct ecological impacts may open Siberia to a flood of Chinese immigrants.
