So, I found these on imgur, and I wanted to see what they looked like all together.

A few minutes of compositing and... Well, it's interesting but there's a large gap in the West and the Rockies, and most of Canada is unrepresented, and I don't even see Mohawk or even the Seneca on this. I mean, as Iroquois confederation members, fine but then it's missing the Seminole even. And that's just the regions represented; there are scores of languages in California alone.

So I went ahead and found this one, by artist Nakoma Volkman. Save for super-high-detail.

Choctaw here, can confirm.....white man hate us. Spread love for all!

This looks like a game character selection. "Choose your Tribe!". Each region gives you certain proficiency to killing Oregon Trail folk.

Oregon Fail; Where you try to force them to have dysentry.

@LRMSTeacher Hey, 3/4 maps you used went viral so, I found the 4th one and composited them into one, then found a larger one made in '96.

I'm sure even this is a simplification, but it's a lot better than what we got taught at school!

Iroquois is actually a slur used by the Algonquin. They called themselves Haudenosaunee (ho-den-uh-sho-nay)

Changing Ones: Third and Fourth Genders in Native North America is a stunning book btw.

I’m glad you found the one with everyone. NE was missing a ton…

The originals were cute but didn't feel right to leave out so many. As it is the big one still isn't high enough resolution to list half.

Recently watched on of The Great Courses on many of these cultures. Truly fascinating.

Definitely a Plains tribe. How did you miss Ho-Chunk (Winnebago) ??? It’s above the MN Saul-Fox tribe.

That's awesome but it'd be nice to see them do the Philippines too; they have tribes there as well still

We have a bridge in downtown that houses an entire bat colony. LOTTA bat piss beneath it.

An understatement. The largest urban bat colony in North America. 1.5 million batties

Even has Anasazi, great map. My great great grandmother was Cherokee

classic

Anasazi is an outdated term that's considered disrespectful. The more accepted/proper term is Ancestral Pueblo or Ancestral Puebloan.

Thanks, I did not know that.

Eh, 1996 was a different time.

True. Still some very cool maps! Just thought I'd throw it out there and happy to see parks and historic sites slowly update the terminology

4 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

I was under the impression there were none left to feel disrespected. I thought they disappeared all mysterious like.

The Ancestral Pueblo people migrated (likely due to drought) from large settlements like Chaco Canyon and redistributed around the Southwest

4 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

They didn't disappear, they simply relocated - they are directly related to the Pueblo people found throughout the Southwest today.

4 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

The myth of disappearance is one problem with the word Anasazi. The Pueblo people have a continuous history/legacy of inhabitance in the SW
