Question

What do you find interesting about Native American culture? Explain.

Answer 1

Thanksgiving - Wampanoag: Thanksgiving is a popular holiday in the United States. But before the Europeans came, the Wampanoags were doing Thanksgiving beforehand, and ate dishes that we still eat on Thanksgiving today; cornbeard, turkey, dressing, cranberry sauce, etc.

Hockey - Sauk, Foxes and Assiniboine: Hovkey was originally called "Shinny", and was played with a ball made of buckskin and a curved stick. Unlike in the modern world, you can play either floor hockey or ice hockey, these Native American groups only played it in the winter.

Gumbo - Native American Choctaws: This is a very popular dish in the Southern states of America and escpecially in Lousiana. It was originally made from Native Americans, who shared the recipe with slaves and poor white farmers.

Hope this helps, have a blessed and wonderful day! :-)
