The Natchez people are one of the many tribes considered to be native Americans.
Aside from the fact that Natchez people speak different native languages that are yet to be associated with other native Americans, they are also known for having a unique social system of nobility classes and exogamous marriage practices.
The Natchez people is a highly based matrilineal kinship society, with adequacy in reckoning along female lines.
The objective of the Dawes Act was to assimilate Native American Indians into mainstream US society by annihilating their cultural and social traditions. Over ninety million acres of tribal land were stripped from Native American Indians and sold to non-natives.
