What did the kickapoos eat?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

According to Thomas Cooley (1937) who lived near them they like pork, turkey, and on special occasions eat puppy "There has been much argument about whether Indians, ate dogs or not. I can tell you about that, at least among the Kickapoos. I have seen Indians kill a fat pup by striking it over the head with a club, then cutting its throat. Then they cooked it , and the people would all gather from miles around." (see associated link for document below).

Native American diets were all the same, they were opportunistic diets; meaning they ate what was available. The quote above is late depression era; where many Americana's were said to have done the same - and while it could be considered a cultural taboo, other countries even today eat meat from sources that would upset you (dogs, horses, cats, etc.).

Back on point however: The Kickapoo were noted farmers who specialised in a type of corn and its products, they were also avid hunters of small game and fishermen (when a body of water was near).

What is the Comanche Indian translation for peace?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

There is no directly equivalent word in the Comanche language. Instead other terms are used, including the idea of doing things together and co-operating - the prefix nah- has this meaning. The word for the condition of being peaceful, calm, quiet or soundless is tunaki-. To become quiet, calm or peaceful is tusu'naa-.
