THE ORIGINAL AMERICANS: NATIVE AMERICANS
This
web site is dedicated to inform students of the rich history of select Native
American groups. Christopher Columbus did
not “discover” America in 1492 as traditional history texts assert.
Rather, he encounter various indigenous inhabitants of present day North
America. Ever since then, Europeans and European-Americans have encroached
upon and taken away land from Native Americans. Below is
a map of the continental United States with three Native
American tribal links: Cherokee, the Navajo and the Potawatomi.
