Most Indians concentrated on the important things in life: getting food, making clothes and building houses. FOOD Buffalo - Food of Native AmericansIndians ate many different kinds of food. Those who lived on the plains of the Central United States ate the meat of buffalo. The Pueblos of the south-western part lived on corn, beans and squash. Indians in Alaska and Canada were fishers and hunted deer and other wild animals in the forests. Most Indians ate berries and collected nuts. Indians cooked their food in ovens that they made with hot stones. They preserved meat by smoking or drying it in the sun. MARRIAGE AND CHILDREN Many Indians married at an early age – girls between 13 and 15, boys between 15 and 20. In some Indian tribes parents chose husbands and wives for their children. Some Indian tribes allowed men to have more than one wife. After a man died his wife often lived with his brother’s family. Most Indian families were small because many children died at birth or at an early age. When boys got older they were tested for their strength and bravery. Many had to live alone in the wilderness for a long time. In many areas, Indians lived in big families called clans. These clans were a group of relatives who had one common ancestor. CLOTHING Many Indians made clothes from animal skins and furs. Buffalo skin and rabbit fur were especially popular. They also used bird feathers to decorate their heads. Indians of the tropical regions only wore simple skirts. Some tribes wore no clothes at all THERE ARE MORE BUT I HOPE THESE HELP :)
