Who started scalping first the white people or Native Americans?
Scalping has a complex history, and both Native Americans and European settlers practiced it at different times for various reasons. Native American tribes engaged in scalping long before European contact, often as a means of warfare and to claim victory over enemies. However, the practice became more widespread and commercially driven among white settlers during colonial conflicts, particularly in the 17th and 18th centuries. Thus, while Native Americans had their own traditions of scalping, European settlers adapted and escalated the practice in a different context.

When did scalping start?
The first historical evidence of "Scalping" comes from a Greek Historical document written in 440 B.C., Herodotus writes of the Scythian's scalping their opponents in battle. Some historians claim that there is evidence of Native American's scalping others around the 14th century, these claims are disputed and if true were very limited in practice. This conduct became a widespread practice when settlers from Europe began paying a bounty for scalps during Drummers War (1721). Indian scalps were paid a bounty of 100 pounds sterling (or approximately $20,000.00 adjusted modern US Dollars). Extensive evidence exists that any dark haired person, including many Europeans, were subject to scalping.
Are scalping stories apart of Native American oral tradition?
While it has for some time been contended that scalping was a European invention, introduced along with bounties to prove a kill, there now seems to be ample archeological evidence to suggest that scalping was practiced by some eastern Native North American tribes prior to European contact. It is still safe to say, however, that the practice of taking scalps, by both Native Americans and Europeans, spread after the introduction of scalp bounties in the early 18 th. century. The English colonies (1703), followed by the Dutch, soon started a "Scalp Bounty" of 12 pounds per "Indian Scalp" this was raised to 100 pounds by 1721 or 1723. The indigenous peoples retaliated by taking white scalps and the practice increased on both sides. It is less clear whether scalping was practiced by western tribes prior to European contact, and it is possible that this practice spread westward with European settlers.

Scalping, as a practice involving the taking of a person's scalp as a trophy, was employed by various Native American tribes long before European settlers arrived. However, European colonists, particularly during the 17th century and into the 18th century, began to adopt this practice against Native Americans, often incentivized through bounties. The widespread use of scalping by white settlers became more common during conflicts such as King Philip's War (1675-1676) and the French and Indian War (1754-1763).
