Very little is known of the early history of the Navajo. He seems of Athabascan stock and closely related to a number of tribes dwelling along the banks of the Mackenzie River in the North. The Navajo, since immigrating to the Southwest,by contact with other tribes, has absorbed some of their characteristics. Their principal art is blanket weaving, which they learned from Pueblo women captured in war. They are also famous silversmiths.

They are remarkable in appearance, set upon dizzy sites, with quaint terraced houses of stone and adobe, and queer little corrals for the animals in nooks and angles of the cliffs. The Hopi men weave blankets, squaw dresses, and sashes. The women are the home builders and home owners. There is nothing incongruous in these things to them. They are part of the "way of the old" handed down to them by their forefathers.

All the turquoise worn by the Southwestern tribes in their wampum necklaces, ear-rings, etc., is drilled with a hand drill. It is believed that the more primitive method of drilling was with a single flint pointed stick, revolved between the hands, but the drill illustrated, although primitive, has been used for centuries. Turquoise is the only stone valued by the Indians and practically all of the turquoise obtained by the various tribes has been sold or traded to them by the Santo Domingo Indians, near whose village the mines are. There is no better turquoise in the world than that found in this vicinity.

Remarkable leader of the Seneca people, born near Port Plain, N. Y., about 1738. His father was a trader of Dutch descent, his mother the daughter of a Seneca chief. As a boy he never knew his father, but as he grew up he learned that his father was a white man, well liked by his people. Cornplanter became a warrior of note, and was highly respected by his people for his kindness and bravery. He was the terror of his enemies and the glory of his tribe. After he became a chief of considerable eminence, he was informed of his parentage, and the place of his father's residence. He promptly took his father prisoner, informed him of their relationship and returned him safely to his family. During the Revolution Cornplanter learned that his father had been taken prisoner by the enemy, and was to be put to death. He dashed angrily into the midst of the savage foe, and with great strength, rescued his father from the scalping knife. After the Revolution, he was commissioned by Washington to make peace between the whites and his people.. Because of his suggestion to his people that they plant more and hunt less, he was called "The Planter" by them, and "Cornplanter" by the whites. He died about 1825.

Sauk leader, born on the Rock River in Illinois in 1780. He rose to command of his people by force of character and at an early age was a member of the Sauk council. He became prominent when made tribal guest keeper, and was quick to grasp the power of the office. He was the leading counselor in the Sauk assembly when the period of the Black Hawk war arrived. The government had made a treaty with a small band of Sauks under the leadership of Kwaskwamia for the Sauks to give up the Rock River country. This led to much opposition, but Keokuk assumed so passive an attitude that he lost both social and political prestige. The result was that Black hawk took active leadership and led the Sauks and Foxes against the whites. At the close of the war, Keokuk was again chosen chief of the Sauks, and honored by both tribes for his debate in Washington D. C., with the Sioux and other tribes, when he established for his people claim to the territory of Iowa. He died in Kansas in 1848, and his remains were later removed to Keokuk, Iowa, and re-interred in the city park.

Audacious leader of the Seminoles in their war with the government in 1835-1837. Born on Tallapoosa River in the Creek country about 1804. As a boy he distinguished himself as a dancer and playing at ball. He was also noted for his independence and for his hatred for the whites. At the age of 25, he was recognized as a leader, and in 1832 rebelled at a council held for the purpose of signing a treaty which would require the Seminoles to move west of the Mississippi. In the war that followed he was mastermind and spirit of his people, fighting at the head of his troops in nearly every engagement and always openly exposing himself, so the enemy would know Osceola was there. Though fierce in battle and defiant in speech, he was dignified and courteous, and had many noble qualities which made him a credit to his race. He was seized by General Jessup in 1837 as he approached Ft. Payton under a flag of truce. He was sent to prison at Charleston, S. C., where he refused food and eventually died from starvation and a broken heart.

Famous American Indian Series 2
Colorful Apache chieftain, who defied the governments of two nations for 40 years. Born about 1834 near Ft. Tulerosa, in New Mexico. He acquired notoriety through his opposition to the authorities in both the United States and Mexico. He surrendered to General Crook in 1882, and was for a while at peace with the Government. He owned one of the best farms at San Carlos, when trouble arose in 1884, when the authorities made an attempt to stop the making of "Tiawin," the native intoxicant. He led a band of hostiles and terrorized the inhabitants of Arizona, New Mexico, Sonora and Chihuahua. He surrendered to General Miles in 1885, and was deported to Florida. Was later transferred to Ft. Silt, Okla., where he died in Feb. 1909.

Description:
Famous American Indian Series 1
Fearless leader of the Nez Perces in the hostilities of 1877. He was a great orator, a man of fine appearance and impressive features. He regarded the Wallowa Valley as the sacred land of his people, and did not recognize the Treaty of 1863, which gave it to the whites. He displayed remarkable military skill in defeating larger forces of whites on several occasions. In his great retreat of 1877, he moved his little band with women and children, 1,000 miles before surrender, although harassed on three sides by troops. His fine generalship and the conduct of his warriors won the unstinted praise of their conquerors. He died in Washington in 1904.

Description:
Oilette American Indians Series 8668
The strange misnomer of the "Indians" for the aborigines of North America dates back to a letter written by Columbus in 1493, soon after the discovery of the New World. He believed, as did the people of his time, that the land he had discovered by sailing westward across the Atlantic was really a part of India. The Apaches are nomadic tribes in New Mexico, Arizona and elsewhere.

Divided Back unused
Description:
Series H-2069
Life in a Hopi village is different from that in other Indian villages. Among the Hopi marriage by purchase does not exist; the choice of a life companion is left almost entirely to the couple contemplating the marriage. Nearly all of the houses adjoin; and most of the streets are narrow. Families do not live in one house a few months and then move, as in a settlement of white people, but stay from generation to generation in the same place. Social intercourse is not influenced by language, occupation or religious differences, and the young people have ample opportunity to become thoroughly acquainted. The Hopi maiden is known by the way she dresses her hair. Two enormous whorls indicate the single woman, but when they marry the whorls are undone and the hair loosened and tied with a knot on each side of the head.
