A glimpse into the rich history and culture of Native American peoples in the United States, as depicted in these historic black-and-white images. From Alaska to the Midwest, Native communities are seen working, living, and thriving in various landscapes. In this collection, we witness Native American women in the United States tending to their homes, crafting, and carrying water. We also see Native American men fishing, portaging canoes, and even living in thatched-roof dwellings along riversides. These images offer a window into the past, showcasing the resilience and diversity of Native American peoples, from the Ojibway encampments of the Assinniboine and Saskatchewan Exploring Expedition, to the Modoc Indians in the Lava Beds. Each photograph tells a unique story, reminding us of the important role Native American communities have played and continue to play in the history of the United States.
