Indian Tribal Histories Bannock-Brotherton
The Handbook of American Indians North of
Mexico by Frederick W. Hodge, was compiled by some of the best and well known Indian
researchers of that time. Many of which wrote only about
specific tribes. The work began in 1873 and was submitted to
the Bureau of Ethnology for publication in 1905. There are
approximately 2,500 tribes listed in the book, most of which you
will find on our pages listed as
Indian Tribal Histories or
Indian Bands, Gens and Clans
Because this book is so extensive we have
included other sections which we felt would
be of interest to our readers:
Indian History,
Indian Facts and Fallacies,
Indian Chiefs and Leaders,
Indian Reservations, and Indians of
Canada and Mexico (in progress).
Villages of the Algonquian, Siouan and
Caddoan Tribes West of the Mississippi
by David Bushnell. Bushnell paints
a vivid picture of the homes, camps and
travels of our Indian Ancestors.
The Aboriginal Races of North America
by Samuel G. Drake, provides the reader with
an enumeration of the tribes known at that
time and endeavors to divide North America
into certain districts, each which include
all Indians speaking the same or dialects of
the same language.
The Indian Tribes of North America,
by John R. Swanton, the author divides the
United States by regions and places the many
tribes in that area. This work is not
completely accurate and many of the tribes
moved in a wide area especially for hunting
and winter camps.
