Hello everyone, just joined Shroomery and it's pretty sweet! I am a very traditional member of the Navajo tribe. Everywhere I look on the internet there are so many misconceptions about Native Americans and I feel like my knowledge could be of use to many on this board. So, ask me a quesion and I'll try to answer it.

Why were they so violent to the settling pilgrims?
I mean, we made them a thanksgiving feast for God's sake.

What are your thoughts on Native's charging money for ceremonies like Vision Quests and Yuwipi Ceremonies?
I understand charging for the Ayahuasca and Peyote Ceremonies due to the traveling costs of the shaman and the medicine, but the others is what i'm mostly wondering how a Native feels about it.
I attended a Yuwipi Ceremony last weekend and they were fairly persistent on asking for "donations." Granted, if you didn't have any money, they would still let you join but the donations were mentioned multiple times.

There isn't much of a market for it, or for it's abuse. It's just extremely "sacred" to everyone on the rez and people know not to fuck around with it, native or not haha. It's usually obtained through ceremonies or your own personal cultivation.

Why were the Native Americans unable to develop a modern society of their own before the white man came.

Beware of the people on this board.
Do you mind if I ask what percent Navajo you are?
Those people need to beware themselves lol. I'm full blooded and can trace my lineage back about 5 or 6 generations...

Well when you think about the fact that this whole continent was inhabited by native Americans prior to European colonization, it only makes sense that a lot of cross breeding has occurred since 1492.

Can I predict the lotto? No. Is it easy for me to explore the universe through something other than my five senses and "conscious"? Yes. We tap into this very often during ceremonies and other occurences. Describing the beauty felt, viewed, and arranged during a technique taught by the gods at the beginning of man's history is something hard to define on a discussion board. During a ceremony, it's as if the four sacred directions are arranging everything beneath your atoms, your brain waves, and creates new balances throughout an individual's entire existence, past present and future. It's extremely hard to define it and reverse engineer it through western science, because my grandpa's feces are older than today's science. Science dismisses the unknown as fiction, so science isn't that great in my opinion.

It's entirely up to the user. I only attend peyote ceremonies in support of friends or family members. It's like going to mass at church, but these meetings are coordinated at the leisure of anybody, anytime.

You mean before or after the devastating plagues and interracial/intra-racial warfare? I don't doubt there was some intermingling, I doubt that it was extensive enough that Latisha Brown and Michael Pakoswki x10000000 have Native American ancestry.
I think it's just popular to say one has it because it's considered "rare", "mystical", or whatever. It's the simpering hymn of people playing Oppression Olympics or slinging crystals at a new age shop.
Then again, it really isn't my business. I'm just a regular ol' negro. *shrug* I just think that shit's kind of funny.

To what extent is it a misconception that the traditions, knowledge and rituals are made up by the "tribes" for the benefit of tourists?
Is there really any continuity of ancient tribal lore going back to the times before the Europeans arrived, and, how many tribes have even been able to hang on to their language?
Would it be wrong to lump these "tribal ceremonies" in the same class as the self appointed leaders of the so-called druids, that made up some bullshit rituals in their local am-dram (amateur dramatics) society, that we have over here in the UK, who perform their "rituals" at stonehenge on the soltice, pretending like there is an unbroken line of druidic tradition that somehow escaped 2000 years of persecution by the Christians?

Do you attend or partake? Have you used any other hallucinogens and, if you know, how is peyote different, if it is at all? Have you tried Jimson weed?

Welcome to The Shroomery!
What's the status of your language? I know it's the most prevalent Native American language in the United States. Can you speak it? Is it spoken often on your reservation? Are there Navajo-language radio and television programs? Are there still people who speak Navajo exclusively?

dont believe that every indian knows his history, it's only in the last 30 years that many nations were allowed to even teach their history again, the ceremonies and rituals were forbidden by law in most reservations. the oldest person on the Qualla Baoundary that speaks tsalagi as a first language is about 17 or 18, many of the younger people didnt want to be different than the world so it held no interest to them. why would you expect everyone to know everything about their heritage when their parents didnt care to learn or teach what they knew

Okay dude, don't let your entitlement get to your head

Yuwipi is a Lakota thing anyways.
I've also never heard of someone paying for hemblecha.
HomelessComputer, have you sun danced? If so, how do your traditions regard crossing the eastern gate?
lol entitlement about what? You clearly misinterpreted what I said, or at least how I meant it.
All I said was that I went to a Yuwipi ceremony. In no way I was bragging about it.
I moved to an area recently and have been exposed to the culture.
I had a few questions about it to try and understand it from a different perspective from someone claiming to be Native American.
And pris, when people come on the boards and claim to be timothy leary's great grandson or someone who claims to be Native American or whoever, especially when it comes to this website, it's probably expected that questions will be asked about who they are and in this case, their culture. If they are open to share information about their lives to create a thread about it, then I would expect they would know something or have something to share.

Am I crazy?
I asked one question.
Dude hasn't said anything validating a thing.
And I am perceived as pretentious because I went to a ceremony related to the topic of the thread?
lol

No, I am referring to your quick jump to assumptious assertions about the OP based on the belief that your question held more value than the others he addressed.
The question you asked could have a very long response, maybe he doesn't have the energy to answer it right now? Or maybe he simply didn't like the question and doesn't want to answer. Questioning his authenticity certainly isn't going to make him want to appease you with an answer.

My friend is basically a full blown white person but has some Cherokee in him from like his grandma and he has a fucking reservation card and everything. He uses that shit all the time to get tax free cigs and all this other shit.
My dads friend is full blooded Navajo and he's really chill. I know that other tribes fucking hate each other though. The other tribes here hate the navajos. It's like some long standing century old feud. Now it's probably over gaming rights lol.

I understand what you're saying.
It's just I believe like 25% of the things I read on here anyway. Too many trolls. So skepticism is difficult to avoid.
I was just truly interested in my question.

Why's it hard to believe someone could actually be Native American?
The famed historian Rush Limbaugh once said, “There are more American Indians alive today than there were when Columbus arrived or at any other time in history.”

I don't think it's hard to believe. 
I live on Native American land.
I am affiliated with many Natives, even ones who hold sweat lodges and vision quests and other ceremonies all the time.
All I said was that he ignored my question after he asked people to ask him questions about Native Americans lol
He is a new member.
A lot of new members are just trolls claiming to be someone else to fuck with people.
And I ask a legitimate question and somehow this got turned around on me 
OP is the most defended new member I have seen yet.

Native culture isn't so cynical like Western culture. He is capable of defending himself, but out of my own curiosity, I'd like to see him not run off.

I wasn't speaking from my perspective of our culture, just this being Shroomery and all.
And I'm honestly curious as well. I wasn't even trying to be a dick, it was just an observation.
I'm interested in another perspective of the things i've been around because there has been a lot of talk about "fake/plastic shamans" exploiting Native culture for monetary purposes.

Siberia is the origin of the term "shaman". People use it to describe other medicine men, etc just because it's an easy term to lump all these sorts into

Jews are white. Native American Indian are brown.
Hitler is bad because he was killing white jews
America is good because it was killing brown skinned native american indians.
Really? Skin color is what decides if something is evil or not?

Also btw, native americans aren't a single "shade". Tribes varied so much, there were natives nearly pale, and there were natives who were darker. But that fact is even more exaggerated today due to mixed natives being the norm.

So that means you can trace your ancestry all the way back to ancient and drowned Doggerland, where the genes for blue eyes seem to have originated. So you're descendand from early European hunter-gatherer cultures!

You are descended from the "Doggerland" - the source of blue eyes (and their genes) according to Turtletotem.
That being said, I have no idea what he is talking about.

I just looked up Doggerland. I don't recall ever hearing that name before. I'll have to look into it. So far all I've gathered is that if you're into archeology and 'relic' hunting that could very well be a mecca... even though it's under water.(drowned) I've never done any underwater hunting.

It was a huge grassland during the ice age, but now it lies sunken on the bottom of the North Sea. For centuries fishermen caught all sorts of oddities in their nets, from mammoth bones to stone tools. A large archeological record of this drowned land exists, and I even helped cataloguing it a few years back.
The blue eyes of Europeans can be traced genetically all the way back to this period in time, to the hunter-gatherer tribes that lived in north-western Europe and Doggerland. So if you have blue eyes, this is where they came from. I think that's pretty cool.
Still, we don't know much about the people that lived there. We can only learn about them trough archeology, because they left no writing, and no oral history about them exists. One thing we know, for example, is that they buried their dogs in exactly the same ritiualistic way as they buried humans, so from that we can be fairly certain that dogs where very important to these people.
I wish I could tell you guys more, but I'm no archeologists nor geneticist, I just repeat stuff I heard from people who study it

Five minutes after just learning about it I'd give it a gander.. I'd love to be turned loose there and see what I could see.
I need to find a site or something with pictures to see what kind of stuff they're finding over there..

I'm looking for some pictures too, but I mainly find fancifull reconstructions and very few artifacts 
I saw all the bones and artifacts in the North Sea archeology depot, where I did volunteer work for two years.
http://natgeotv.com/uk/stone-age-atlantis There is aparently a TV show about it, don't know how accurate it is.
EDIT: I might have a CD-ROM somehwere with pictures, I'll see if I can find it this afternoon.

I was always told as a kid that it's in relation to the sun. I'm up northeast, in the woods where there is shade. The plains guys don't get much shade so, sun = pigment when it comes to the eyes.
I suspect this to be highly bullshit, something they tell the kids etc. I've always suspected some slick fellow, or lady slipped their way into my current bloodline. In all honesty my pops is the geneology guy. He's the guy for me to ask. My grandma is another one..
See, we have pictures that for instance, only my grandma knows who these people are..her sisters dont know but she does. And she's 86. You see what I'm saying here? When she goes, all that history is gone and you're just left with pictures or written accounts of ...who knows.
It's been that way for awhile now, history getting lost. Imagine how many people never had a picture taken or someone take notes about them. Gone, just like that. My pops is all about that Detective work, I should have a real solid sit down with him and figure out what's what.

The word "shaman" probably originates from the Tungusic Evenki language of North Asia. The Evenki word is probably ultimately borrowed from Pali समन (samana) from Sanskrit[3] श्रमण (śramaṇá, "ascetic, monk, devotee"), from श्रम (śráma, "fatigue, weariness, exhaustion; labor, toil etc."). According to ethnolinguist Juha Janhunen, "the word is attested in all of the Tungusic idioms" such as Negidal, Lamut, Udehe/Orochi, Nanai, Ilcha, Orok, Manchu and Ulcha, and "nothing seems to contradict the assumption that the meaning 'shaman' also derives from Proto-Tungusic" and may have roots that extend back in time at least two millennia.[4] The term was introduced to the west after Russian forces conquered the shamanistic Khanate of Kazan in 1552. The term "shamanism" was first applied by western anthropologists to the ancient religion of the Turks and Mongols, as well as those of the neighboring Tungusic and Samoyedic-speaking peoples. Upon learning more about religious traditions across the world, some anthropologists began to also use the term to describe unrelated magico-religious practices found within the ethnic religions of other parts of Asia, Africa, Australasia and the Americas, as they believed these practices to be similar to one another.

It probably came from mixing with Europeans, as I have european decent from both my mother and my father. Although I have heard stories of blue eyes in native tribes from long ago. That was most likely from intermingling. It wasn't really considered taboo by natives to marry outsiders, especially if they were adopted into the tribe.

Blue eyed first Americans? Did this come from mixing with the first European settlers? Or are the blue eyes of first Americans unrelated to the blue eyes of Europeans?
It probably came from mixing with Europeans, as I have european decent from both my mother and my father. Although I have heard stories of blue eyes in native tribes from long ago. That was most likely from intermingling. It wasn't really considered taboo by natives to marry outsiders, especially if they were adopted into the tribe.
Crazy Horse supposedly had blonde hair, light skin, and blue eyes. No pictures were ever taken of him so all we have to go on are historical accounts. I believe his mother was Cheyenne and his father Sioux. Also don't forget it's pretty well accepted that my Viking ancestors settled and were incorporated into the Cherokee.

I've heard not only can all blue-eyed people be traced to a specific region but they can also be traced to one specific ancestor. Never looked into it though.

The Nazis had a project called Lebensbaum (Life Tree) where they literally intended to breed superaryans by letting picture perfect aryans have babies together. The result was that there was a great incidence of birth defects due to inbreeding.
They then handed the children over to Herr Überhauptman Stonehenge who put them on barges.

You don't see the connection between you saying all blue eyed people share one ancestor and the Lebensbaum project?

Here we have the relevant stuff:
"Blue-eyed humans have a single, common ancestor", according to University of Copenhagen researchers
http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2008/01/080130170343.htm
and then there is this guy who disputes their findings:
http://blogs.discovermagazine.com/gnxp/2008/01/blue-eyed-humans-do-not-have-a-single-common-ancestor/#.VgwSGH0gtRo
He does say, however, "I do acknowledge that it is correct that the vast majority of of people who exhibit blue-eyes do share a common ancestor within the last 10,000 years."
I don't see anything about Nazis on either link.

I think what Asante's trying to say is that the native americans were genetically engineered by the nazi's.

I think he's trying to imply there's some sort of hidden racism in my statement, but if so that's pretty funny since Asante is a huge racist. He's so racist he can't even name 7 of his favorite black people.

The nazi's accidently did an experiment that seems to point overwhelmingly in the direction that what they called Aryan people are all closely related. We where talking about how blue eyed people share a common ancestor (That may or may not have lived in Doggerland).
So.. I don't see how you can't see the connection? Sorry man, I thought you where fucking

I know that. It still isn't relevant. We already know Hitler enjoyed when his niece pissed on him. Any hardcore racist like that would breed with their sister before what they view as lesser races. There's little shock here.

I predominately sit with Lakota and Mexica. The difference between phenotype and melanin content is pretty noticeable. In regards to skin color a lot of natives refer to it as 'the law of the sun'.
It's hard to find prime examples today though because finding someone who is pure blood from a single nation is rather rare.

I'm half Native with blue eyes and have attended ceremonies through my life. My grandfather is full Native American and has our family tree going back a few generations.
I'm highly questioning the validity of a few posters here but am more disappointed in some of the replies.
