Tribe Trio

In class today, we explored three significant tribes. The Lakota, the Tlingit, the Deni' tribe are the three. This was such a learning experience because these are not tribes we hear about frequently if ever. These tribes all have very different ways of life. They eat different things, have different beliefs, wear different clothing, and live in different types of homes. For example the Deni' tribe, the women make their clothing out of blankets, while the Lakota tribes women make their clothing out of deer skin and other animal skin. The Lakota tribe lives in tepees made out of buffalo hide, the Tlingit tribe live in buildings with totem poles posted outside. It was interesting to see these tribes, and experience their culture. I felt like we ventured outside of the classroom for an hour today. See our presentation here.
