I think its important to k at one time that the cut gave them guns and other things to make hunting plenteously better for them as t hey embarked on their lands trying to make peace with the loss man buying their trust and loyalty in relationships between the twain races and culture. Mingo was grateful for this as it provided many ways of life for his tribe to survive. This is important because it marked a great peace trade between French and Indians. . With respect to the Land I was not Consulted in it, if I was to slant my Sentiments evil disposed People might impute it to Motives very varied from those which actuate me, it is true the Land belonged in general to those who receive given it for fightd that the Words which were Spoken have been written with a Lasting Mark, the Superintendant label every word after word as one would cast Bullets so that no variation can happen, &038 therefore the words have been Spoken and the eternal marks traced I will not swan anything to contradict, but, on the Contrary Confirm the Cession which has been made.What I have now to Say on that head is, to wish that all t he Land may be Settled in four years that I may See it myself before I die. 3. There was one thing I would mention tho it cannot concern myself, &038 that is the Behaviour of the traders towards our Women often when the Traders sent for a wicket of Bread &038 the Generous Indian sent his own wife to fork out their wants instead of taking the Bread out of the Basket they put their authorize upon the Br vitamin E of their Wives which was not to be admitted, for the first maxim in our actors line is that Death is preferable to disgrace. Men who did not pay back the authority normally treated Indian women with dirspect and used them for their own sexual expectations. It was normal for British men to take Indian women and marry them.

Read over that section of your book to answer the following questions. A. Although Native Americans were not mentioned in the 1763 Treaty of Paris that ended the Seven age War (French and Indian War), how did this treaty affect indigenous peoples who lived in Canada and areas east of the Mississippi River? -Britain gained control of Canada, eliminating the French threat from the North. France transferred all its territory westerly of the Mississippi River, including New Orleans to Spain as compensation for help during the war. B. ) What casing of political/economic relationship did the French establish with Native Americans preliminary to 1763? The French had cemented respectful alliances with many Indian tribes. To Indians, gifts cemented social relationships, symbolizing honor and establishing obligation. The French had mastered the subtleties of gift exchange, distributing textiles and hats and receiving calumets (ceremonial pipes) in return. Generous givers expressed handedness and protection, not subordination , in the ceremonial practices of giving. C. ) According to your textbook (pp. 162-167), why didnt the British believe in exchanging gifts with Native Americans (as the French had done)? From the British view, a generous gift might signify tribute (thus demeaning the giver), or it might be positioned as a bribe. They never indented to gain the acquaintance of Indians by presents. D. ) What caused Pontiacs Rebellion of 1763? The renewal of commitment to Indian ways and the formation of tribal alliances led to open warfare. Pontiacs Rebellion was a war waged by Indians of the Great Lakes region against British rule after the French and Indian War. The Indians, who had formed alliances with the defeated French, were dissatisfied with treatment from British officials.Unlike the Indians French allies, British officials entrusted with Indian relations refused to offer gifts to tribal leaders such as guns, gunpowder, and ammunition. Furthermore, English settlers began displacing Indians from their land. While French settlers and Indians seemed to live in coition harmony, the sheer number of English settlers that descended on the region prompted many Indians to provide war. 6. ) Did Alibamon Mingo, the leader of the Choctaw nation, appear to look forward to future relations with the British (in the year 1765)? 7. ) LAND OWNERSHIP A. Did Alibamon Mingo think that once land treaties were subscribe with the British that Native Americans would no longer have access to those lands? -No he did not think that B. ) Did Native Americans view land ownership otherwise than Europeans? If so, in what way? Yes. They viewed it as a place of abundance for food, clothing, and lodging options for their way of living. He thought that the land, whether it forcefully taken or negotiated to share, that no matter what it still solely belonged to those who were there first. it is true the Land belonged chiefly to those who have given it away
