Each is indicated by a picture of a church building, with surrounding lines representing irrigation canals, as the legend "riego de las misiones" states. All of these lie on the right bank of the river, or in what is now the state of Chihuahua, Mexico. It is known Crom historical sources that Indians speak. ing at least four different dialects, and probably comprising three distinct stocks, inhabited these fi\•e towns.

S. A. RECENTLY DATED PUEBLO RUINS IN ARIZONA By EMIL W. HAURY AND LYNDON L. HARGRAVE (WITH 27 PLATES) FOREWORD In 1921 the National Geographic Society began excavation and study of Pueblo Bonito, a prehistoric ruin in Chaco Canyon, north- western New Mexico. It was the privilege of the undersigned to direct these archeological investigations from their inception to the conclusion of actual field-work in the autumn of 1927. Pueblo Bonito is unquestionably the finest extant example of that phase of southwestern history known to archeologists as Pueblo III— the period during which small, isolated villages were drawn together into large, complex communities. After a time these communities began to disintegrate ; to separate into lesser groups that spread far and wide in search of more fertile fields and freedom from the attacks of nomadic enemies. Then came, in 1540, Coronado and his fellow adventurers to initiate the Spanish conquest of the Southwest ; to bring about still further disintegration of the peaceful Pueblo tribes and their unique social organization. This Spanish-dominated phase of Pueblo history, from 1540 to the present, is commonly designated Pueblo V.

Texas Indians CH 4 TEXAS HISTORY First Texans
Texas Indians CH 4 TEXAS HISTORY First Texans Native Americans adapted to and used their environment to meet their needs. Plains Indians People who move from place to place with the seasons are nomads. The main advantage of teepees was their mobility. Plains Indians The Apaches were able to attack both the Spanish and other Indian groups because of their skilled use of horses. Apaches used their skill at riding horses to assert dominance. Plains Indians The Comanche became wealthy as skilled buffalo hunters. Hunters used buffalo hides for clothing and shelter and ate the meat. All Plains Indians lived off the buffalo. Plains Indians The Comanche first entered Texas from the Great Plains. The Comanche later drove the Apache into the Mountains and Basins region of West Texas and into New Mexico. Plains Indians The Lipan and Mescalero were subgroups of the Apaches. Southeastern Indians The Caddos were a matrilineal society, which meant they traced their families through the mother’s side. Caddos farmed and practiced crop rotation to prevent the soil from wearing out. Southeastern Indians Farming changed Native American culture by creating more complex, permanent societies. Western Gulf Indians Gulf Coast Indians were different from Plains Indians because they were able to eat seafood from the Gulf, including oysters, clams, turtles and fish. Western Gulf Indians The Karankawa and Coahuiltecan were both were nomads along the Gulf Coast. They didn’t farm because they lived in a dry area. Pueblo Indians The Pueblo were from the Mountains and Basins region and built adobe homes of mud and straw.

Anasazi (Pueblo Builders and Cliff Dwellers) Mound Builders
CK_3_TH_HG_P146_194.QXD 4/11/05 10:47 AM Page 153 Some of the Inuit of today live very much the way their ancestors did. For food, clothing, weapons, tools, and fuel, they rely on the fish they catch and the caribou, seals, whales, and walruses they hunt. In winter, the Inuit live in houses made of sod, wood, and stone, and in summer, they use tents made of animal skins. Igloos, shelters made of blocks of snow, are used only when the Inuit go on hunts and then only rarely. Kayaks and dog sleds are their means of transportation. Much of the Inuit reli- gion revolves around the sea and animals. The Inuit are noted for their carvings in soapstone, ivory, and bone, which often use characters from their religious lore. Anasazi (Pueblo Builders and Cliff Dwellers) By about 2,000 years ago, the Anasazi had settled in what is known today as the four corners area of the Southwest, that is, where Arizona, New Mexico, Colorado, and Utah meet. Originally hunters and gatherers, the Anasazi turned to farming by around 1000 CE. Their crops were primarily maize (corn), beans, and squash. The first houses of the Anasazi were pithouses constructed below ground. By 1100 CE, however, the Anasazi were building cliff dwellings, multistoried stone apartment buildings with many rooms, set into mountainsides. By the late 1200s, for unknown reasons, the Anasazi began to abandon their cliff dwellings. Possible reasons include drought, disease, pressure from invading groups like the Apache, and internal dissension among villagers. Archaeologists have found no proof of any of these.

The Pueblo of the American Southwest
The Pueblo of the American Southwest Christine Mills April 25, 2008 EDUC 405 Social Studies Methods Culture Kit Gail McEachron 2 Table of Contents Historical Narrative………. 3 Lesson #1…………………. 12 Lesson #2…………………. 18 Lesson #3…………………. 24 Lesson #4…………………. 22 Artifact #1………………… 28 Artifact #2………………… 31 Assessments………………. 34 Expenses………………….. 37 3 Historical Narrative – The Pueblo Indians Introduction “Native American” is a term we often use as a catch-all phrase to describe varying stereotypes – a pan-Indian caricature of bits and pieces of “Indian-ness.” In reality, though Native Americans make up less than one percent of the population of the United States, they embody half of its languages and cultures. This term, one that so often conjures the image of feathers and teepees, hunting and moccasins, represents over 500 groups that vary greatly in their backgrounds, from region to language to traditions to modern achievement. Unfortunately, one setting ideal for the perpetuation of such stereotypes is that of the school system. Elementary students, in particular, are susceptible, as information is often simplified at the lower levels. Students classify Native Americans as they have seen in books and films. Stereotypes may be positive or negative, either that of a peaceful resourceful people at one with nature, or a violent animal-like group. Even worse, many children believe Native Americans are people of the past, perhaps no longer even in existence. For example “a visitor to a child care center heard a four-year-old saying, “Indians aren't people. They're all dead.” This child had already acquired an inaccurate view of Native Americans, even though her classmates were children of many cultures, including a Native American child.” (“Teaching Young Children About Native Americans”) Native Americans merit great attention in our study of history as both the first peoples of America (“First Americans), and as equally valid and beautiful American cultures, both ancient and modern.

Ancestral Puebloan Agriculture • Agriculture in the area that is now the American Southwest began with the Ancestral Puebloan people around sometime between 2000 and 1200 BCE. • By the first millennium CE the Hohokam people in present day Arizona were building complex irrigation systems to water their fields. Some of their canals were over a mile long and parts of this system still supply water to Phoenix, AZ with minimal modifications. • The Hohokam, the Mogollon, and the Chacons all practiced settled agriculture, built complex irrigation systems, and lived in large cities hundreds of years before Europeans came to the Southwest.

The Progression from Ancestral Pueblo to Pueblo of Today
The Cultural Progression from Ancestral Pueblo to Pueblo of Today Cara Wallin Shawmont Elementary School Overview Rationale Objectives Background Standards Classroom Activities Bibliography Appendix Overview This curriculum unit will be created for the use of a sixth grade inclusive classroom, which focuses on the subjects of mathematics and social studies. With this curriculum unit, the activities will be able to be tweaked and enhanced, in order to be incorporated in both elementary and high school history classes. My students will be introduced to the Ancestral Pueblo and Pueblo tribes located in the southwestern part of the United States. This collection will have interactive and differentiated lesson plans that will focus on the culture of these two tribes from the past to the present. Activities are cross-curricular. The theme of culture plays a predominant role in this unit because it allows students to explore many different aspects of the Ancestral Puebloan and Pueblo tribes including art and architecture, beliefs and traditions, music and literature. Students will be able to read and research different documents to gain a better understanding of their history and migration patterns. Pictures of tribal artifacts will visually connect students with the arts that are incorporated in the tribes and the importance behind them. Websites will allow students to navigate through the living corridors, called cliff dwellings, and GoogleMaps will show the exact location and enormous size of these dwellings. These activities will help students take ownership of their learning and gain a respect and understanding of the culture of the Pueblo tribe of today. Rationale Native Americans are still very much present in our world today.
