February 2, 2018 __________________________________________ _______________ Southern New Hampshire University Date College of Online and Continuing Education iii Abstract Fort Laramie National Historic Site in southeastern Wyoming recalls the days of the frontier period of the West (1760s to 1890s). From 1849 to 1890, the military fort at Fort Laramie was an important center of diplomacy, trade, and warfare on the Northern Plains. Many of the most important and vivid figures working to expand America passed through Fort Laramie. Trappers, fur traders, missionaries, overland emigrants, homesteaders, cowboys, soldiers, and Plains Indians all had an impact at Fort Laramie. Through various media resources, Fort Laramie’s history is told and one of the most important aspects of this history, the physical historic structures is only briefly touched upon. The historic structures are just one of the many focal points that can be concentrated on during a typical visitor experience. A qualitative analysis into the archival documents through the Fort Laramie Library & Archive, Fort Laramie Interpretation Cache, interviews with National Park Staff at Fort Laramie and interviews with local historians are able to be compiled into a Historic Buildings Guide that fully explore the historic structures at Fort Laramie which are a significant part of its history.

    History According to California Indian traditional beliefs, their ancestors were created here and have lived here forever. Most anthropologists believe California Indians descended from people who crossed from Asia into North America over a land bridge that joined the two continents late in the Pleistocene Epoch. It is thought that Native Americans lived here for 15 millenia before the first European explorer sailed California's coast in the 1500s. European explorers came to California initially in a search for what British explorers called the Northwest Passage and what the Spaniards called the Strait of Anián. In any event, it was an attempt to find a shortcut between Asia's riches -- silk, spices, jewels -- and Europe that drove the discovery voyages. The now famous voyage of Columbus in 1492 was an attempt to find this mythical shortcut. Forty-seven years after Columbus's voyage, Francisco de Ulloa led an expedition from Acapulco that sought a non-existent passage from the Gulf of California through to the Pacific Ocean. California was thought to be an island, in large part probably due to a Spanish novel called Las Sergas de Esplandián (The Exploits of Esplandián) written by Garcí Rodríguez Ordóñez de Montalvo. The "island" of California is depicted in this map. Montalvo's mythical island of California was populated by a tribe of J. Speed. "The Island of California: California as black women who lived like Amazons. Early explorers apparently an Island Map," from America (Map of America named the Baja California peninsula after the mythical island, and in made in London in 1626 or 1676).
