Inuit Environment
Allison Satterwhite
The Inuit people lived in a tough
place. Their land was a cold frozen
plain. They lived in portions of modern
day Canada and Alaska. Many
people would follow a seasonal
hunting and fishing rotation, so when
one species goes away for the
summer or winter they would hunt
another species. The Inuits lived in a
harsh region, but they made it so that
it would fit their needs

Inuit Food
Lexie Binner
When the Inuit kill an animal to
preserve it they dry it or freeze it.
The seal, which is the most
commonly hunted animal, provides
the Inuit with dog food, clothing,
and materials for making boats
tents and harpoon lines. Many
families in the Inuit tribe follow a
seasonal hunting and fishing cycle.
Today many Inuit work for wages
and buy commercially prepared
food.

The Inuit tribe lived in Alaska so staying
warm and shelter was important. In the winter
the Inuit tribe used blocks stacked up in a
dome shape called igloos. They add clear ice
for windows and a hole At the top of the igloos
so smoke from cooking fires can escape. They
also used houses and huts with whalebone or
drift wood frames covered with moss or sod. In
the winter they use animal skin usually walrus
or seal for tents and that’s Inuit shelter.
Inuit clothing!
Sarah Trexler and Nicole Holubik
The Inuit people live in Alaska. Alaska
is a place where it is very cold! The
Inuit people had to keep warm some
how, so they created clothing. Most of
their clothing was made out of caribou,
but occasionally they would used
different animal skins.

Inuit Culture
Victoria Pollard
The Inuit believed in
spirits that came in many
forms, like animals. The
Inuit often thought that
they could be controlled with
charms or talismans. The
Inuit were often offended
when called Eskimos. They
wore coats made of caribou
skins and boots made of seal
skins.

Kwakiutl
Region/Environment
Haley Uliasz
The Kwakiutl’s environment/region is
a long strip of land. It is nestled
between the ocean and rugged
mountains. It is full of rivers and
forests, that are filled with fish and
game. The environment is cool air
and mild summer heat. The region
includes rock-bound coasts, forests,
and mountains.
Kwakiutl Food
by: Jacob Moyar
The Kwakiutl’s main food source is
fish. The men also hunted deer and
moose. They also make long canoes
to relocate migrated/ing fish and
game. Women also have a part in
getting food. They collect shellfish,
seaweed, and berries. The Kwakiutl
also captured stranded whales on the
shore.

Kwakiutl’s Food
Dominic Davis
The Kwakiutl lived in multi families
homes they reflected modern day
homes. The houses were huge
outside each house stood a totem
pole. The houses were slightly
slanted for drainage. The houses
were made out of wood .All of the
houses stood in straight lines. They
had no rooms.

Men and women both wore capes
made usually of goat hair or cedar
bark. High class women wore Mink,
Sea otter, Marten, Raccoon, Beaver,
and Marmot hide. Marmot was the
most valued because it was so soft
and plush. Men wore their capes
over their shoulders, on their waist, or
sometimes not at all. Kwakiutl people
made hats woven out of cedar bark.
Men bound their hair with sweet
smelling grass and women bound
their hair with yarn made of goat hair.

The Pueblo Indians lived in areas
with not much water. They lived
where there were not many sources
for trees and other natural resources,
like the rocky and the ridge areas.
They got there name from Francisco
Vasquez de Coronado and Indians
from all over would come from all
over and live in these houses called
Pueblos. They did not have much
water, but it was mostly in sandy soil
deep in the ground. Even though they
grew other foods, the most common
was corn. Also they grew beans and
squash.

Pueblo Food
Katie Grimesey
Pueblo Indians lived in hot
places where there wasn’t
much wildlife. Because of
that, they grew plants instead.
The Pueblo mostly grew corn,
beans, and squash. Sometimes
plants were hard to grow
because of the heat.

The Pueblo Shelter
Alex Overbeck
The pueblo made their house of
adobe and was mud and stones.
They would build their house on clay
or mortar landform. In the pueblo
house they have a moveable ladder
to the first floor to the second floor.

Pueblo Clothing
Erin Birmingham
The pueblo people wore
very little clothing. Sometimes they
even wore wild flowers and feathers .
At night it got very chilly and the
pueblo people sat around a fire
together and wore blankets to keep
warm. The men very good at
weaving, and they wove most of the
clothing.

The Pueblo Culture has a lot of
history. They were discovered by
Francisco Vasquez de Coronado. He
named them Pueblo for village or
town because they were a nomadic
tribe unlike other tribes. Pueblo
people are known for an older
southwest culture by the name
Basket Maker that was in the 500-700
A.D. time period. Pottery was
introduced to the Pueblo Peoples
during this time.
SIOUX
ENVRIONMENT/
REGION
Steven Brown
In the Sioux environment they have
vast rolling plains. The Sioux have
migrated from Mississippi to the
mountains of Canada. Some tribes
like the Lakota lived around North
Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, and
Minnesota. The Sioux lived on the
vast plains and at night the sky
looms.

The Sioux Native American tribe would
use natural material like rocks and
sticks and bird feathers to create an
arrow. Then they would find another
stick and tree bark to make a bow.
They would do this to make materials
for hunting. Their main source of meat
was the buffalo. If they killed one they
will eat some of the meat right away.
Then they would preserve the rest of it
with salt. They would also eat a lot of
herbs when hunting buffalo. When they
were not hunting buffalo they were
farming beans, corn, squash, and
sunflowers.

The Sioux lived in the Great Plains,
where few trees were grown. For
shelter, the Sioux would live in lodges
covered, built over a shallow pit, and
held together by grass and roots.
Other Sioux, who were nomadic,
would live in teepees, (tents made
from animal skins), because they
were more portable. The portable
cone-shaped teepee was made from
poles and buffalo skin. The Sioux
way of life revolved around the
buffalo; they provided food, clothing,
tools, and shelter.
Sioux clothing
In the Sioux tribe the women
would make clothing to gain
honor. They used buffalo hides
for fabric. The Sioux believed in
spirits so to honor them they
would dress up and reform
plays/dances.

Sioux culture
Derrick Davis
The Sioux were nomadic people (that
means they never stayed in one
place a very long time). They had
many dances(mostly about
buffalo/bison). They also believed in a
“Great Spirit” and had shamans
(medicine men).

The Iroquois Indians were in
the northeast woodlands.
Their environment was very
important to life there. They
had big, tall, hard trees that
they could use for their
longhouses. This area
contained great soil for crops
and also good weather for
corn and tomatoes. The huge
forests were home to many
plants and animals that the
Iroquois hunted and the rivers
also helped the Iroquois
Indians with water, fish, and
transportation.
Iroquois Food
Anne Evans
The Iroquois ate fruit, vegetables, and meat.
The main vegetables are corn, beans, and
squash. The meat was usually deer or bear.
Other foods they might have eaten are nuts,
fish, apples, peaches ,and squirrel.

Iroquois shelter
Jordan Goodman
The Iroquois Indians lived in longhouses.
They built them out of Elm tree bark! The
longhouses were called longhouses
because they were longer than they
were wide. They had two doors, one on
each side, and in the winter they covered
up the doors with animal skins.
Sometimes they would even travel in
tepees!

Iroquois Clothing
By: Courtney Vest
The Iroquois tribe’s clothing was
fairly hard to make. They were
made with deer skin, and sewn
together with sinew, which is
found in the deer’s foot. The
women often decorated their
clothes with seashells. The Iroquois
also made moccasins from leather
or corn husk. They wore them in
harsh winters.

Iroquois Culture
Presley Williams
The Iroquois Indians referred
themselves to Houdenosaunees or
“People of the Longhouses”. The men
of the tribe were hunters, providers,
and protectors. The women owned
the houses, gathered food, cooked,
and made clothing. Iroquoians made
fine pottery, baskets, and mats of
cornhusks. The Shaman would wear
frightening masks to heal the sick by
scaring away evil spirits.
