It is a shame much was lost about them. If only fur traders got there first. Gold miners were usually moral detritus.
In the Meantime. I will look into Yurok, Wintu, Karuk and Patwin Cultures.
Around the Columbia River. Chinuk Wawa developed.
I wonder what life in a Quiggly Hole was like?
are you the same anon who frog posted and wanted to move to a rainforest in chile or whatever
That is me. Problem is Spanish is a mouthful and Mapuche conflict has taken precedence again in light of Chile's political instability.
Also. Plants don't jump. Easier to collect and cultivate, even the difficult ones like I like to post.
My only dilemma is Chileans don't give enough of a shit. Americans and to a lesser extent Canadians give too much of a shit to the point of paranoid suspicion.
Pretty 🙂

Casino naggers duping naggers out of gibs
Well, the reserves out west are quite small so gambling as much as I disapprove is their only guaranteed income, that and drugs. I wish things were different.
Based Cone Plant appreciator. Here is Candystick.
americas native plants are my favorite
British ones seem samey and or imported.
>British ones seem samey and or imported.
agreed about that, same with all of europe, med, china, japan imo... new world has some of the coolest stuff
It does. I think Monotropes originated in North America and some like Ghost Pipe spread to Europe, much like the Equine except thanks to God we still have North American Monotropes.
>Ghost Pipe
I actually have some 'seeds' (powder) for this to plant on my desk kek, probably got scammed as they are nearly impossible to grow from what I hear
going to try to seed one of my trees with it, doubt they are real, or will work even if they are real
Are you the Anon I talked to the other day because land was too dry?
>Are you the Anon I talked to the other day because land was too dry?
no
It seems the word is spreading. People think I should be paid for this but I enjoy helping others in charity.
I mainly do it to attract insects and birds
A most noble duty. Rare Bumblebees love Monotropes.
>Monotropes
I wish someone could somehow figure out how to propagate these, would love to use them in the garden readily
Me too. I hope to develop some sort of growing protocol. But there's this.

Same as other Monotropoideae. Be hopeful though.
I have never seen it growing but to be fair the only places nearly wild near me are parks, though they are full of native woodland species growing. I have my own collection of native american plants, im really interested in the medicinal values as well as their beauty
Good for fevers and anxiety.
ive never actually tried it, not probably ever will, but its nice to know and adds to the interest i have in it - if i ever needed it
sorry im a superior northeast woodlands native
you know, the ones that didnt scalp and eat people
I am pretty sure scalping was an Iroquoian and Siouan thing. Northwesterns just chopped the head off from the neck up from their ornate Canoes.
Cannibalism was considered especially taboo by Algonquians because of that thing I won't mention.
so long as you didnt eat people, you could kill, maim, and treat these cannibals anyway you wanted. thats apache technique and what elite israelites preach about, its just a thing.
I always heard they chopped off genitals and staked people out. With the Comanches by comparison preferring the former and slow torture. Mind you Ojibwe are believed to have cooked their enemies without cannibalistic connotations.
the difference between apache and navajo is that apache speak the language faster.
Yes both are Southern Athabaskan/Dene. I always read the Navajo were more cultured with Puebloan influences. Kind of like comparing a Cambodian with a Khmu highlander with the Khmu being wilder.
Yeah they turned into Navajo apparently. To me the Apache are the only coherent tribe in spite of their talking speed.
In vicinity yes because Athabaskans came from the far north. Go to Yellowknife or the Yukon and you will meet fellow Dene. Their words are identical but pronunciations are different, much like English, Dutch and German. There's Dene even in California called Hupa.
Yeah, Serbians even have a Navajo word apparently. To me the coherently spoken are usually closer to the Navajo.
Any Serbian word shared with Navajo is likely Pannonian Avar. I believe Serb comes from Sarbi which was a Ruanruan/Xianbei word for compatriot funnily enough.
idk, the serbian word or wandewort was "knife" which allowed "metal knife"
Most likely also Xianbei. The Dene were close to Yeniseians and Yeniseians had major influence on Huns/Turko-Mongolic steppe culture which in itself influenced Slavic.
i much rather trust a serbian, im just explaining how things work as a native.
Serbians claim everything except everything Croatian is Serbian.
Northern Cree here, we didnt eat people and scalping was never our thing it was something the french were doing before. We did have some pretty fucked up forms of torture tho. Cree also have a bad history for killing other tribes and taking their women but when you saw what the degen west coast natives were doing or what the Comanche and apache were doing
French borrowed it from their Huron allies.
I met one at the bus station and he was high on drugs. the whites genocided them, nothing left of their culture other than gambling, alcohol, and drugs
It is most sad. I hope to bring them old papers to remind them.
>PNW tribes have elaborate social hierarchies and gift-giving practices reminiscent of certain Southeast Asian and Polynesian cultures
>everyone already knows about the achievements of the plains NAs and various native American federations
>native Californians were already in a coastal-mediterranean paradise climate so didn't put together as many advanced physical or cultural structures
I always figured this was why we don't hear much about them- is that true?
Yes. Were quite peaceful too albeit insular. The peaceful ones were the ones that lost the most.
I stopped at a rez in way northern Cali once. They had amazing salmon jerky
They love their Salmon. Much like tribes further north in Washington and Oregon.
