Apache Indians

The Navajo Nation is 27,000 square miles (the size of Holland and Belgium combined) and ranges from 4,500 feet and 8,000 feet in elevation with even higher mountains, so there is a great deal of variation in climate. All of the areas have snow in the winter and monsoon summer rains and thunderstorms.

There are four main regions regions: the flat valleys at elevations from 4,500 to 6,000 feet, the upland plains at 5,500 - 7,000 feet; the mesas are 6,000 - 8,000 feet; and the mountains are from 7,500 to over 10,000 feet. Each of these regions is cut by canyons ranging from a few hundred to 2,000 feet in depth.

There are three climates zones: the cold humid climate of the mountains and mesa tops, 8%; the steppe climate of the mesas and the high plains, 37%; and the comparatively warm desert, 55%.

Temperatures in the cold humid zone average a low of 4 degrees and a high of 80. The annual precipitation is 16 - 27 inches, and the growing season is only 95 days.

The steppe zone has average low of 10 degrees and a high of 88. Annual precipitation is from 12-16 inches, the growing season is 147 days.

Finally, in the desert area temperatures are a low of 11 degrees and a high of 110. Annual precipitation is between 7 and 11 inches, and the growing season is 173 days.

It is either Europe Aisa or Spain.

Edit:

Decades ago, it was believed and taught in schools that the aboriginal tribes came over the frozen Bering Strait between Russia and the United States. Later in the twentieth century, some scientists believed there was a coastal sea route from South America through North America which lead to the belief the Indians might be decendants of southern peoples. Still others have surmised that Indian tribes came over from Mongolia and Africa. Late in the twentieth century, pottery shards were found in the southwest United States that have been carbon dated to be 25,000 years old. Since the Ice age is about 18,000 year old only, it negates the Bering Strait theory.

In truth, no one really knows from where they emigrated or IF they emigrated. Most tribes have stories where their Peoples have been on this continent since memory. Meaning they have always been here.

The Comanche were historically nomadic buffalo hunters and they grew no crops of any kind. They occasionally traded with other tribes for maize (Indian corn) and other foodstuffs.

White man killed them all

Kinship terms in all Algonquian languages are extremely complex and many have different terms for use by a male or a female speaker. The Mi'kmaq term for "my grandmother" is nkijinen

Because they thought it was unholy for their tribe to hunt or eat

native Americans could not have been the first to set foot here because they could not have came here as native American i.e. someone born here, as they immigrated from somewhere

most probably they came by riendeer sled from lapland in far nothern Finland and settled in northern minnesots northern wisconson and the upper peninsula of Michigan many of their offspring still reside in these areas

The Kiowa and their close allies the Kiowa-Apaches were typical southern Plains people. Food was served in large decorated spoons of buffalo horn which also served as dishes, but some food was simply eaten with the fingers. For cutting up a large chunk of meat, the piece would be gripped in the teeth and held outwards with one hand while a knife was held in the other to cut off a smaller piece.

Anthropological evidence suggests that the ancestors of the Apache peoples lived in the area of Alaska, Canada, and/or the Pacific Northwest before migrating to the Southwest sometime between AD 1200 and 1500 and became the separate group now identified as the Apache tribe. The Apaches' nomadic way of life complicates accurate dating, because they constructed less substantial dwellings than other Southwestern groups.

It is pronounced ah knee chaw sss gee lee or ah sss gee nah (this is an English phonetic rendition. Cherokee is written in a different alphabet. If you go to the Cherokee nation website you can see how it is written in Cherokee. You can also get an MP3 file and play it to pronounce it.

One of the oldest, and most intricate, kinds of Apache crafts is basket-weaving. They also were known for their beadworking, silversmithing and sculpting pottery.

No. They were a semi-nomadic culture on the US Southwest and Mexico since the last ice age, some 10,000 years ago, as part of the migration from northwestern Asia into North America via the Bering Strait.

Japanese is the native language of over 125 million people, member of the Japonic language family. If you want to say 'blessing' in Japanese, you can use one of the following words: 'megumi', 'syukufuku', or 'onkei'.

Originally Apache women wore buckskin dresses and the men wore leather war shirts andbreechcloths. In the 1800's, many Apache men began to wear white cotton tunics and pants, which they adopted from the Mexicans, and many Apache women wore calico skirts and dresses. The Apaches wore moccasins or high moccasin boots on their feet. An Apache lady's dress or warrior's shirt was often fringed and beaded for decoration. Here is a site about the symbolism of Plains Indian war shirts, and some photos and links about Indian costume in general.

The Apaches did not traditionally wear feather warbonnets, but the Plains Apaches adopted these headdresses from their Kiowa allies. Other Apache people wore leather or cloth headbands instead. Women usually wore their hair long and loose or gathered into a bun. Many young Apache women fastened their buns with hourglass-shaped hair ornaments called nah-leens. We haven't yet found a good photo of a nah-leen to share with you, but here is a photograph of some Caddo women wearing the same type of hair fastener. Apache men often cut their hair to shoulder length (except in the Plains Apache tribe.) Both sexes liked to wear shell jewelry, especially choker-style necklaces. The Apaches also painted their faces for special occasions. They used different patterns for war paint, religious ceremonies, and festive decoration.

Today, some Apache people still have moccasins or a buckskin dress, but they wear modern clothes like jeans instead of breechcloths... and they only wear traditional regalia on special occasions like a wedding or a dance.

Yes the Apache Indians did have holidays. The one they mostly liked was thanksgiving because of the thing with the pilgrims. Apache indians have mostly celebrated not all of the holidays but most of the holidays. So yes the Apache Indians did celebrate holidays.

They played a game similar to tag.

The apache NATIVE AMERICANS either farmed or hunted for food, they grew squash, corn and other crops. They hunted moose, deer, wolves and other animals with spears and bows and arrows.

they came from a place on earth, so deal with it .

We don't know who their enemies were before the Spanish arrived in about 1540. The word in Navajo for corn means enemies food or strangers food. The word for non Navajos is the same so we don't know if the ancestral Pueblo people were enemies or not. The word Anasazi can mean enemy ancestors or strangers ancestors as well. We do know they gained many skills and cultural ideas from the Pueblo so not all could have been fighting.

By the 1600s the Spanish were the largest enemy. They created a market for slaves and tried to control Navajo land. Because they wanted slaves and would pay well for them other tribes raided the Navajo for slaves. The Navajo also raided the Pueblo and Spanish colonies. But they also traded with and inter married with the Pueblo people and some Spanish.

By the late 1700s there was constant raiding and slaving attacks. The Ute and Comanche allied with the Spanish. It is estimated that during the early 1800s more than 66 percent of all Navajo families had experienced the loss of members to slavery.

When the area became part of Mexico they became an enemy as well. Lastly, the area came under US control and the US army was their enemy
