What a shame they have been prosecuted and killed by the invaders, the
white man always thinks he knows better than the native people, but he has
lost the real wisdom and connection with the forces of the Universe. Poor

defend the earth, she will know. Love her . Or be her enemy. In our
world she is most important & worthy. treat all she has as your

something.. I have been asked & videoed it for proof for those that named
me crazy.

i live in a place where the roads of today were first buffalo trails, and
from what i know the beautiful shawnee lived here. ive found many of their
tools and weapons while roaming the woods, and i know this place is sacred
ground. i dont need to read it from a book or have a history museum guide
tell me what it is or isnt. its essence speaks for itself. and i love this
place.
+Yshi Tida Do you know of any buffalo trails that I might be able to walk on that were created initially? I'm in Rochester, not too far away from Buffalo and would love to know where I can visit these paths for myself...
+Shawnee Love I'm in Frankfort ky, on the Kentucky river. I wish I knew what your people called this place before it was "Frankfort" I hate that name lol supposedly named after Stephen Frank who was apparently killed in a battle with the natives upon the settlers arriving via the river. so it was called Frank's fort in memory of him. I would rather remember what this beautiful place was before it was plowed and cemented over. many blessings my friend.
+Yshi Tida Where are you speaking of? I would love to know...our people were from Georgia all the way up through Canada at one time. Thank you for the compliment also by the way. :)
LEGEND OF THE BEGINNING
Chewing Black Bones, a respected Blackfeet elder, told Ella E. Clark the
following creation myth in 1953. Clark later published the account in her
book, Indian Legends from the Northern Rockies.
Old Man came from the south, making the mountains, the prairies, and the
forests as he passed along, making the birds and the animals also. He
traveled northward making things as he went, putting red paint in the
ground here and there --arranging the world as we see it today.
He made the Milk River and crossed it; being tired, he went up on a little
hill and lay down to rest. As he lay on his back, stretched out on the
grass with his arms extended, he marked his figure with stones. You can see
those rocks today, they show the shape of his body, legs, arms and hair.
Going on north after he had rested, he stumbled over a knoll and fell down
on his knees. He said aloud, "You are a bad thing to make me stumble so."
Then he raised up two large buttes there and named them the Knees. They are
called the Knees to this day. He went on farther north, and with some of
the rocks he carried with him he built the Sweet Grass Hills.
Old Man covered the plains with grass for the animals to feed on. He marked
off a piece of ground and in it made all kinds of roots and berries to
grow: camas, carrots, turnips, bitterroot, sarvisberries, bull-berries,
cherries, plums, and rosebuds. He planted trees, and he put all kinds of
animals on the ground.
When he created the bighorn sheep with its big head and horns, he made it
out on the prairie. But it did not travel easily on the prairie; it was
awkward and could not go fast. So Old Man took it by its horns, led it up
into the mountain, and turned it loose. There the bighorn skipped about
among the rocks and went up fearful places with ease. So Old Man said to
it, "This is the kind of place that suits you; this is what you are fitted
for, the rocks, and the mountains."
While he was in the mountains, he made the antelope out of dirt and turned
it loose to see how it would do. It ran so fast that it fell over some
rocks and hurt itself. Seeing that the mountains were not the place for it,
Old Man took the antelope down to the prairie and turned it loose. When he
saw it running away fast and gracefully, he said, "This is what you are
suited to, the broad prairie."
One day Old Man decided that he would make a woman and a child. So he
formed them both of clay, the woman and the child, her son.
After he had molded the clay in human shape, he said to it,"You must be
people." And then he covered it up and went away. The next morning he went
to the place, took off the covering, looked at the images, and said "Arise
and walk." They did so. They walked down to the river with their maker, and
then he told them that his name was NAPI, Old Man.
This is how we came to be people. It is he who made us.
The first people were poor and naked, and they did not know how to do
anything for themselves. Old Man showed them the roots and berries and said
"You can eat these." Then he pointed to certain trees, "When the bark of
these trees is young and tender, it is good. Then you can peel it off and
eat it."
He told the people that the animals also should be their food. "These are
your herds," he said. "All these little animals that live on the ground --
squirrels, rabbits, skunks, beavers, are good to eat. You need not fear to
eat their flesh. All the birds that fly, these too, I have made for you, so
that you can eat of their flesh."
Old Man took the first people over the prairies and through the forests,
then the swamps to show them the different plants he had created. He told
them what herbs were good for sicknesses, saying often, "The root of this
herb or the leaf of this herb, if gathered in a certain month of the year,
is good for certain sickness." In that way the people learned the power of
all herbs. Then he showed them how to make weapons with which to kill the
animals for their food. First, he went out and cut some sarvisberry shoots,
brought them in, and peeled the bark off them. He took one of the larger
shoots, flattened it, tied a string to it, and thus made a bow. Then he
caught one of the birds he had made, took feathers from its wing, split
them, and tied them to a shaft of wood.
At first he tied four feathers along the shaft, and with this bow sent the
arrow toward its mark. But he found that it did not fly well. When he used
only three feathers, it went straight to the mark. Then he went out and
began to break sharp pieces off the stones. When he tied them at the ends
of his arrows, he found that the black flint stones, and some white flint,
made the best arrow points.
When the people had learned to make bow and arrows, Old Man taught them how
to shoot animals and birds. Because it is not healthful to eat animals'
flesh raw, he showed the first people how to make fire. He gathered soft,
dry rotten driftwood and made a punk of it. Then he found a piece of hard
wood and drilled a hole in it with an arrow point. He gave the first man a
pointed piece of hard wood and showed him how to roll it between his hands
until sparks came out and the punk caught fire. Then he showed the people
how to cook the meat of the animals they had killed and how to eat it.
He told them to get a certain kind of stone that was on the land, while he
found a harder stone. With the hard stone he had them hollow out the softer
one and so make a kettle. Thus, they made their dishes.
Old Man told the first people how to get spirit power: "Go away by yourself
and go to sleep. Something will come to you in your dream that will help
you. It may be some animal. Whatever this animal tells you in your sleep,
you must do. Obey it. Be guided by it. If later you want help, if you are
traveling alone and cry aloud for help, your prayer will be answered. It
may be by an eagle, perhaps by a buffalo, perhaps by a bear. Whatever
animal hears your prayer you must listen to it."
That was how the first people got along in the world, by the power given to
them in their dreams.
After this, Old Man kept on traveling north. Many of the animals that he
had created followed him. They understood when he spoke to them, and they
were his servants. When he got to the north point of the Porcupine
Mountains, he made some more mud images of people, blew his breath upon
them, and they became people, men and women. They asked him, "What are we
to eat?"
By way of answer, Old Man made many images of clay in the form of buffalo.
Then he blew breath upon them and they stood up. When he made signs to
them, they started to run. Then he said to the people, "Those
animals--buffalo--are your food."
"But how can we kill them?" the people asked.
"I will show you," he answered.
He took them to a cliff and told them to build rock piles: "Now hide behind
these piles of rocks," he said. "I will lead the buffalo this way. When
they are opposite you, rise up."
After telling them what to do, he started toward the herd of buffalo. When
he called the animals, they started to run toward him, and they followed
him until they were inside the piles of rock. Then Old Man dropped back. As
the people rose up, the buffalo ran in a straight line and jumped over the
cliff.
"Go down and take the flesh of those animals," said Old Man.
The people tried to tear the limbs apart, but they could not. Old Man went
to the edge of the cliff, broke off some pieces with sharp edges, and told
the people to cut the flesh with these rocks. They obeyed him. When they
had skinned the buffalo, they set up some poles and put the hides on them.
Thus they made a shelter to sleep under.
After Old Man had taught the people all these things, he started off again,
traveling north until he came to where the Bow and Elbow Rivers meet. There
he made some more people and taught them the same things. From there he
went farther north. When he had gone almost to the Red Deer River, he was
so tired that he lay down on a hill. The form of his body can be seen there
yet, on the top of the hill where he rested.
When he awoke from his sleep, he traveled farther north until he came to a
high hill. He climbed to the top of it and there he sat down to rest. As he
gazed over the country, he was greatly pleased by it. Looking at the steep
hill below him, he said to himself, "This is a fine place for sliding. I
will have some fun." And he began to slide down the hill. The marks where
he slid are to be seen yet, and the place is known to all the Blackfeet
tribes as "Old ManÕs Sliding Ground."
Old Man can never die. Long ago he left the Blackfeet and went away toward
the west, disappearing in the mountains. Before he started, he said to the
people, "I will always take care of you, and some day I will return."
Even today some people think that he spoke the truth and that when he comes
back he will bring with him the buffalo, which they believe the white men
have hidden. Others remember that before he left them he said that when he
returned he would find them a different people. They would be living in a
different world, he said, from that which he had created for them and had
taught them to live in.

We're all out of Africa. DNA proves we all belong to the same tribe. Watch
the documentary 'Out of Africa' by Professor Alice Roberts.' The world

We're killing our Kin throughout the world.
Now North america is full of white faces, i don't want to call english
people who born in america americans, because they are not the true
americans. For me they are just European, the same goes to Australia, they
are english not australian. Taking people land and kill them, I'm stilll
here waiting for these racist to say sorry for what they done.
+Curaçao Production THERE ARE NO TRUE "AMERICANS"THERE WOULD BE NO AMERICA WITHOUT EUROPEANS"AMERICA" COMES FROM THE ITALIAN NAME AMERIGO. FROM AMERIGO VESPUCCI
Race and nationality are very different. Australia, the US, etc. are their home countries now. Being an immigrant myself to New Zealand, I hope that my future grandchildren still hold my culture in their hearts, but I know that they may not feel the same connection to such a faraway country that they may have never visited and experienced. You cannot blame people for loving the country where they were born. It doesn't matter whether you're asian, polynesian, european, african, etc.
This is track 4 This album is a harmony of native american chants with trance ambiance. Also, if you have time to listen, I uploaded another video of the songs ...
