Were the apache an independent tribe?

No, there were different branches or clans of Apaches. Mescalero and Cherikowa being two of them.

The Apache peoples share a geographic origin, in what is now the southwestern U.S.; they share many cultural traditions; and they share a loosely related group of similar languages. Their basic social structure was family-grouped clans, but many of the clans were loosely affiliated with other clans to forms groups that might be considered tribes. An Apachean tribe did not share the powerful social and political ties of the plains tribes to the north. There was most certainly no such thing as one great tribe encompassing all of the Apache peoples.

Because the Apaches kept themselves isolated from Europeans in their challenging southwestern terrain, scientists are missing a lot of details about the early clan/tribe relationships. We are left to guess about many of the intriguing details of the early Apachean culture and languages. When the U.S. Army conquered the Apaches in the late 1800's and sent them to reservations, there was vast cross-cultural mixing that made it almost impossible to accurately reconstruct knowledge of the pre-reservation Apaches. Even the languages changed, and new crosscut dialects immediately appeared.

While there is no widespread scientific agreement on the fine details, it is not unreasonable to suggest that there were 3 Apachean language dialects: White Mountain, San Carlos, and Tonto (related to Navajo language). It is not unreasonable to suggest that there were approximately 6 major social or roughly "tribal" groupings: Western Apache, Plains Apache, Chiricahua, Mescalero, Jicarilla, and Lipans. The Navajo were a 7th Apachean group, but today they are considered a separate tribe.

What are the chief characteristics of Indian agriculture as it is today?

Andhra pradesh one of the India states more keen in developing

agriculture activity with scientific knowledge support.Unlike Punjab

who are exploiting all the knowledge and over doing.This is very harmful.

Water is the vital agent for Indian farmer which is either available in abundance when not required and scanty when needed due to monsoon

blues. Still Indian farmers supply their produce fighting all the odds. Thanks to the modern politician who lack knowledge of Agriculture

and to gather votes vouch for farmers interests. Main short coming

in the shape of middle men who procure produce from farmers for

less price and sell them to consumer for fat prices. Dishonest traders

sell fake seed/other things needed for farming. Creating false scarcity of fertilizers.

The Farmer is very much dependent on Government mechanism which is lathergic in implementing national projects. Maharastra anubhavfarmer club achieved some thing like a miracle in educating farmers in choosing right crop technology etc.

Though procurement is government job fixing price is not . Politicians like Sh Charda babu Naidu of Telugu Desam Party opinionedthat farming a waste process but if nor farming where we get our staple food??

Who is the current chief of the Apache tribe?

"Apache", just like "Sioux" is not the name of a single tribe but a large group of many related tribes, each with its own chiefs and tribal councils.

Among the Apache the picture is further complicated by changes in tribal structure and because each group has been known by more than one name, leading to much confusion.

Today six tribal groups are generally recognised: Chiricahua, Western Apache, Mescalero, Jicarilla, Lipan and Kiowa-Apache.

Most of the modern Apache tribes are today governed by a committee with a president at its head; in the case of the Chiricahua Apache Nde Nation, Edward Two Moons is tribal President.

What kind of lifestyle did an sumerian civilization live?

The Sumerian civilization was a very advanced civilization. They loved pottery so much, they made lots of it! They also developed the earliest forms of writing known as cuneiform! they developed the oldest known law system made by Hammurabi. How cool? They loved astronomy, mathematics, and also science. They had a very accurate calendar. They had temples and very helpful tools. So I'm pretty sure that after all my "smarticle" sense of talking I would say that the Sumerians had a pretty sweet and cool life style! I wish I was a Sumerian.
