and American Indian Studies California State University

With more than 500 Native American

nations & 300 different language groups,

there are few universal characteristics

that apply across tribal boundaries.

Traditions, ceremonies, sports, games,

dance, subsistence patterns, clothing,

and religion often differed greatly from

tribe to tribe. The Native American Life

series has been written to dispel many

of the myths and stereotypes about

Native American history and traditions,

and to provide a more accurate and

encompassing journey into the world

of Native Americans.
