REMARKABLE EVENT - SIOUXS AND CHEROKEES

The Unites States has many tribes, but the most important are Cherokees and Sioux, these tribes had remarkable events that were unfortunate situations. The most relevant events of Cherokees were “Trail of Tears” and Sioux “Little Crow’s War”. They had many differences and similarities, but there were more differences between them.


One obvious difference was “Trail of tears” that happened in 1838-1839 so it lasted one year, due to development of a new law imposed by Andrew Jackson , while “Little Crow’s War” was in 1851-1861, so it lasted ten years due to breach of treaty between American government and Sioux tribe. Thus during the development of Little Crow’s War the Sioux tribe received support by Europeans whereas Cherokee tribe didn’t have help during the Trail of tears. Other areas of difference between Cherokees and Sioux were that causes of died. These causes of dead to Cherokees were cold weather, hunger and diseases due to their displacement. In contrast Sioux died by the war. Both events generated many dead people but Cherokee tribe had a major number of them.

Nevertheless there are some similarities between both tribes. One of those is that Europeans and Americans discovered gold in their territories. For that reason the American government forced they tribes moving to other different lands of the United States. A final similarity was the dead of many innocent people that it remains in memory.

In summary, these events were important because then divided the history in two parts and changed the history and life of these tribes.

CAUSES AND EFFECTS OF CHEROKEE TRIBE

In the United States remain some tribes, Cherokee is one of them. Since the middle of the 18th century this tribe exists, but the existence of this tribe is a result of many regrettable events. In history that became the most are in the decreased number of members.

The first cause of the event was the location of the tribe, because they were located in North Carolina, but in this place there was a lot of gold, for this reason, the tribe were displaced by an American president called Andrew Jackson to another place, in this case to the Mississippi river (Oklahoma). As a result, nowadays they are settled in Oklahoma, they haven’t got gold but they have very rich land.

Another event was the “trail of tears” that consisted of Many Native Americans suffered from exposure, disease, starvation in order to conserve its wealth, and their houses. And this process also was called transformation process. It was an important event, because it had problems, discussions and left a lot of people with illness, and approximately 4000 dead. As a consequence, they died and the power was in charge of a new chief.

Nowadays, the new chief makes decisions, and works in new projects for building and improving the touristic area. The effects of there events are the beginning of a new lifestyle, also the beginning of the most important American tribes.

Finally, this tribe had a lot of important events in their history, nevertheless, these events fortified the development and the history of north America.

CHEROKEES AND AZTECS- DIFFERENT RITUALS

The Indians were the first group that lived in America. Cherokee tribe is the most representative to North America in contrast with Aztecs, the most representative tribe in South America specifically in Mexico. These tribes have different practices and rituals. It is relevant to remark the importance of the crops and the similar practices to bless the corn plant.

One obvious difference is the belief in gods whereas Cherokee indian didin't have gods to admire and respect on the contrary the Aztec indians believed in many gods for exampleCeteoti gods to corn and Huitzilupochtli gods of war.

The ritual of war practiced by the Cherokees when the chief war officers became too old to serve one from among their own war council to replace them. Later when the war was won they danceed and bathed for seven days and seven nigths, in this time they drank a special potion to purify them selves. unlike Cherokees, Aztecs sacrificed jailed persons people or war. The ritual consited in a potion preparation and after the blood obtained by this ritual was stared in special containers with land and some herbs.

Nonethless for Cherokee and Aztecs the crops were the main part of their echonomy. The celebrationin the grow up of corn plant. The aztecs had the Xalaquia festival which lasted sixteen days and between June an July, and began when the corn plants reached their maturity and the harvest was apod. Similarly, the Cherokee tribe celebrated the green corn festival in October and the corn feast in the middke of September, in this festival they tanked the gods for the new harvest.

Finally the most important difference is that Cherokee exist, while Aztecs doesn't exist, however Cherokee works in new projects for tourist areas.

CAUSE AND EFFECT: FAMILY INTERECTION OF CHEROKEE TRIBE

Man is a hunter, warrior, chief and build houses and canoes for tribe. Woman's roles is cooking, farming, homework of houses and care children. A consequence of these roles and interacton family, there are a strong relationship that contribute to the tribe in today. There are causes for to still at this moment.

CHEROKEES vr. CHIBCHAS

In the world there many tribes and cultures that were giving contributions in the development of all societies some of these have had a big impact in the economic, because these developed many practices that majority trade in old years. Next, I'm going to discuss about some similarities and differences of Cherokee and Chibchas Tribe.

In the past; the deerskin trade was one of the most important trade relationships between Europeans and Native Americans, especially with Cherokee tribe, because tribe such as Cherokee, among others, supplied deerskins to traders, mostly from Charleston, South Carolina, in exchange for various trade goods for instance: iron tools, kettles, knives, firearms, ammunition, and gunpowder.

One of the similarities between Chibchas of Colombia and the Cherokees was that both had based their trade in agriculture, both tribes used tools for crops of tomatoes, potatoes, wheat and vegetables. These products were sold to their nearest tribes to obtain more animal skins or tools. Although its economy is based on agriculture, both Chibchas as Cherokees were sold to Spaniards and Europeans as slaves.

On the other hand, the Cherokees exchanged their work on agriculture and extraction of gold by more tools while the Chibchas delivered their crops and they were exploited to extract emeralds for the Spaniards. Other areas of difference was that Chibchas made yarn fabrics and material Iraqis while the Cherokees performed with wire baskets and wood.

Finally, these tribes have many stuff in common, due to give much contributions to the world, and these are well-known by people in this time. The Chibchas tribe doesn't exist in our time, because they were killed and dissapearence many years ago. In contrary, The Cherokees tribe there are and they are many important in North of California because they have the base for economic in this state.
