The Denali complex is younger than Nenana complex, had dated around 10,700B.P The lack of wedge-shaped cores and dates that are older than those connected with Denali Complex show older migration of Asians into the New World. The similar stone tool to the Denali Complex had been found in Siberia because both consists…
Assignment Two – Research Treaty - Community Story The Aboriginal peoples who inhabited my region before the arrival of the Europeans were the Haudenosaunee. Today the community of the Six Nations of the Grand River is the largest First Nations reservation in Canada, “with a current population of approximately 13,000.” In English, this means “People of the Longhouse” but the Haudenosaunee go by many names such as the Iroquois or Six Nations. The Past…
The High Artic Relocation of the 1950’s is a dark stain in Canadian history, it is one of many instances of systematic and institutionalized disenfranchisement by the Canadian government towards its Indigenous populations. Despite many positive strides by the Canadian government to make amends for its history of persecution and injustices, we have also continuously seen a deliberate attempt to downplay or cover-up many events that occurred. When analyzing primary sources 9.2 and 9.3 that deal with the High Artic Relocation, the glaring discrepancies between the two accounts are quite evident. I would argue, that the Canadian government’s extensive history of systematic abuse towards it indigenous populations, that the testimony of the Inuit…

2. A) That people came to north America between 20,000 and 30,000 years ago. B) Some scholars believe that they crossed the arctic water by boat. 3.…
Beringia Land Bridge Response When humans were first created on Earth, they did not originally materialize in America. They emerged in a different part of the world, then migrated onwards. Because the Americas had not yet been discovered, humans could not have began there. Many animals also did not originate in America. Without animals, humans could not have existed, because in order to survive, we need food.…
Canada was one of the very first homes to many of Native American people living in the world in the 1600 and 1700, they were also one of the first groups to become a colony. By 1763 Great Britain to control very the country after they defeated to they were defeated in the French and Indian war, many men still lived there after the war but there was ship loads of English speaking colonists that would come to Canada after it was taken by the British. There were many conflicts at this time in Canada one was about religion there were many different cultures if religion there was differences about the Roman Catholic French and the Protestant English speaking colonists caused the argument in Canada. By 1839, a a man named Durham had sent in a report to the parliament that would begun the ideas of two major reforms. The first reform wanted to reunite Canada as one province and that the British immigrants should be welcome, they wanted hugs because then French would become part of the English culture.…
Popular histories often marginalize First Nations women when discussing the fur trade. However, these women were quite significant and contributed a great deal to the vast and rapid development of colonial fur trading, playing a unique but important role in fur trade. Also, the fur trade itself changed the culture of First Nations women permanently and altered their role in their society. European fur traders first came to Canada early in the 16th century, and by the 19th century their industry was in full swing, as in 1821, the Hudson Bay Company successfully won and merged with its biggest rival—Northwest Company (Carlos and Lewis). While Europeans at first simply came to North America to trade for furs, or hunt them themselves, and returned…
This paper is about the Louisiana Purchase. The land was purchased by the United States in the year 1803. “The Louisiana Purchase gave the United States undisputed control of the Mississippi Valley and the heart of the North American continent, an area of centuries-old contention among France, Spain, Great Britain, and more recently the United States.” The region was first explored by the French who had taken the territory of Quebec, province of Canada, and current who followed the banks of the River, turning it into a high-profile route. The French rivaled the British occupation of North America.…
History Script: Since the early 17th century until the early 1900s, Aboriginal Peoples have signed treaties with the British and French, which the two countries then, turned into Canadians later on, after Confederation. Although, in the beginning, when the British first started to sign treaties with the Aboriginals, they wanted to encourage peace, yet, later on, the British and French looked at the treaties from a different perspective, then the Aboriginals and each country had different goals that they wanted to achieve from the treaties. Even though, the Aboriginals sacrificed a lot of their rights and freedom while signing the treaties, I strongly believe, each and every treaty that was signed with the Aboriginal Peoples was worthy and they were historically significant to Canadian history. In the early 17th century Aboriginal Peoples began to sign treaties with the French and British.…
A long time ago Indians migrated from Europe and Asia to what is now the U.S. mainland around 15,000 years ago, with Europe colonizing…
During the early and mid 1400’s, before colonization, North America was inhabited by an enormous amount of diverse Native American tribes. These tribes were incredibly dispersed across the continent of North America, which resulted in Native Americans populating many different geographical regions. The introduction of settlers from Europe, especially Spain, caused the lives of these Native Americans to transform drastically. When analyzing the history of North American tribes, it is important to note the reasoning behind the susceptibility of Native Americans to European conquest as well as why these tribes were so distinctly unique from one another. After the ice ice age, the climate and geography of North America changed drastically.…
Some suggest that if they did come by sea, they would have come faster and farther into the land. There is also linguistic evidence that link Native populations of America to the people in Asia because many non-Indian historians and archeologists believe that the native people migrated from Asia via the Bering Strait. A man named Little Turtle came to the conclusion that Asian people must have migrated from America after looking at all of the evidence. The Bering Strait was believed to a land bridge exposed due to the Ice age of c. 75,000-800 B.C.…
Around the same time that European art was duplicated in Canada and the only films being produced were immigration ads, Canadian literature was restricted to following strict stereotypes of arctic wastelands and wilderness (New). Its themes mostly consisted of discovery, uncertainty, adventure and novelty, all concepts associated with an unknown nation or landscape. An interesting sequence of irony and litotes (negative positive, such as “I don't hate salmon”) was noted, which some scholars suggested was an indication of our country’s insecurities and tendency to avoid stating what they want exactly. It was also important to acknowledge that each region of Canada had a distinct style: Catholic Quebec was dangerously mysterious, Ontario was proud and manipulative, Prairies represented isolation and loneliness, Atlantic Canada was a reminder of the happier, simpler times of Canada, and Northern Canada wasn’t mentioned often but assumed to be a land of future possibiltles (New). Despite the incredible Aboriginal presence in Canada, its stories were dismissed as childhood fantasies and not recorded.…
The Europeans had many favored pieces that they traded such as metal beads made of silver, brass, and German silver (Goldi, “Contact”). Because of this the two groups of people began to trade items. The First Nations people would trade items like metal for fur. The First Nations did not have metal, and the Europeans did not use natural products so both groups of people became very satisfied and content with this agreement (“Who Are”). The First Nations also had medicines that helped in salvaging the lives of the Europeans due to the diseases they came to Canada with.…
