The Link Of The Month for September 2006 is "The Indian War of 1864:
Being a Fragment of the Early History of Kansas, Nebraska, Colorado
and Wyoming," by Eugene Ware. The material is a transcript of this
book which was published in 1911. It can give you some interesting
insights into the thinking of Indian fighters of the time. Chapter 30
covers a bit of the Sand Creek Massacre. I quote: "Among the
humanitarians of Boston it was called the "Chivington Massacre," but
there was never anything more deserved than that massacre. The only
difficulty was that there were about fifteen hundred Indian warriors
that didn't get killed."

The "Link of the Month" for October 2005 is the Kiowa Young Men's
Association. "A grassroots organization, the Kiowa Young Men's
Association is composed of people who live in the Kiowa Community and
keep close ties to what is happening at the local level. The group
participates in the positive activities of the tribe. One standard the
group has adopted is not to be politically involved... to be a part of
the solution rather than part of the problem. The theory is sound
because the Kiowa Tribe needs more positive direction. In addition, the
young men of the Kiowa Nation will inherit what is left by the previous
generation. To insure that the next generation has something good, the
young men have taken the responsibility to forge a positive path."
You might find it interesting to go through their website to see what
they are trying to do.

The "Link of the Month" for August 2005 is "A Circle Of All Nations." According

William Commanda's fundamental and unshakeable conviction that as children of Mother
Earth, we all belong together, irrespective of our individual colour, creed or culture.
The Circle of All Nations is neither an organization nor a network. Rather it is a
growing circle of individuals committed to respect for Mother Earth, promotion of
racial harmony, advancement of social justice, recognition and honouring of indigenous
wisdom and peace building. The core values sustaining the Circle are love, forgiveness,
compassion respect and responsibility.
William Commanda is the eighty nine year old Algonquin Elder from Kitigan Zibi Reserve,
Quebec. The great, great grandson of Pakinawatik, the hereditary Anicinabe chief who
led his people to settle in their traditional hunting and trapping grounds in the Ottawa
River area in the mid eighteen hundreds, Elder Commanda is Keeper of three Wampum Belts
of sacred and historic importance."

The "Link of the Month" for February is 1st-hand-history.org . This website specializes in copies of original, historical documents.

Through its use of original documents, we can see unsanitized versions of the documents, and attitudes which have shaped the United States. I highly recommend this website. I have visited it myself many times.

Featured Link of the Month for January 2005
The Center for California Native Nations website is part of the
University of California in Riverside. The University of California at
Riverside is unique among universities in the United States in that
American Indians Supported UCR's Founding. A Cahuilla man and a
Cherokee woman, Rupert and Jeannette Costo, were responsible for the
campaign to locate a branch of the University of California at
Riverside. The Costos also established the first chair in American
Indian Studies in the United States, the Costo Chair of American Indian
Affairs. They also assembled one of the largest collections of research
materials relating to Native Americans in the nation the Costo Library
of the American Indian and Costo Archive. The Costos founded the
American Indian Historical Society, which served as the foundation for a
Native American book and journal publishing concern, the Indian
Historian Press. The website’s archive section has online versions of
some older magazines which have some interesting articles.
The section of the website which first got my attention asks a question
I have pondered several times: "Should Andrew Jackson be Removed from
the $20 Bill?"
http://www.americanindian.ucr.edu/discussions/jackson/index.shtml
As a historian, I am aware of the sometime vicious nature of President
Jackson toward many American Indian tribes. As a Cherokee, I am even
more aware of the result of Jackson’s actions and inactions. During his
term in office, Jackson ignored a Supreme Court
ruling which supported the Cherokee Nation in their efforts to enforce
their own laws over Georgia laws in our ancestral lands in Georgia. To
paraphrase his comments about the court’s decision, "The Chief Justice
has made his ruling; now let him enforce it." This attitude led to the
removal of the Cherokees a few years later. While I have actually
considered boycotting the 20 dollar bill, I realize how hard this would
be to accomplish. You can peruse the CCNN’s discussion of the issue on
this website listed above.
Here are some other websites which discuss replacing Jackson on the $20.

The "Links of The Month" for May are a collection of websites about the American Indian
Movement. It started in the late 1960s. AIM has gone through some changes over the years.
It has seen changes in its membership, policies, and internal government. There is more
than one major branch, too. One thing that has not changed is the stated goal of helping
American Indians get or maintain their rights. Some people feel this is a radical group.
Others feel they are not radical enough. Either way, visiting the various organizations
can give you a look into the heart of one part of the political and social spectrum that
exists across "Indian Country."

July 2003's Link of the Month is an online version of NEZ PERCE SUMMER, 1877 - The U.S. Army
and the Nee-Me-Poo Crisis by Jerome A. Greene - foreword by Alvin M. Josephy, Jr. ©2000,
Montana Historical Society Press. This is a very detailed account of the Nez Perce's flight
from the army in 1877. As many of you probably know, the Nez Perce who did not want to move
to the Idaho reservation decided to see if they could find somewhere else to live. Their
destination changed a couple of times. Eventually, they had hoped to leave the United States
and go to Canada. They outfought and outmanuvered the army while being outnumbered most of
the time. You can read about most of this tragic flight from the army on this website. It

Featured Link of the Month for February 2003:
The "Link of the Month" for February 2003 is THE PLAINS CREE: A HISTORICAL AND ETHNOGRAPHIC STUDY by
David G. Mandelbaum.
This exceptionally detailed site looks at this Canadian First Nation.
It covers a wide variety of subjects and material. It also has many illustrations. I highly recommend it.

Featured Link of the Month for January 2003:
The January 2003 Link of the Month is: "The Interactive ALR: A Searchable Database of Historic Native American
Vocabularies."
One of the most common questions I get is to tell someone the "Indian" name for something. This website can
help you find translations in many different Indian languages. They are slowly expanding the database, too.

Featured Link of the Month for December 2002:
This month's site is "Dawes Enrollment Cards - Final Rolls 1898- 1914"
This site, from AccessGenealogy.com, has a plethora (how often do you get to use that word!) of information on
tribal enrollment cards. These are the documents the US federal government compiled as they took their official
census of the various Indian tribes. " The Final Rolls of the Citizens and Freedmen of the Five Civilized Tribes
in Indian Territory list the names of the individuals who were allowed on the tribal rolls by the Dawes
Commission." It is a great source for genealogy, information, and it has excellent links.

Featured Link of the Month for November 2002:
This month's site is "Portrait Gallery of American Indians"

Featured Link of the Month for October 2002:
This month’s site is "The Mesoamerican Ballgame: The Sport of Life and Death"
This website appears to have been built to promote a traveling museum exhibit. It requires Flash 5+ to view its features. Once you are inside the site, you will get a chance to play the ball game. You can visit many of the areas of Mesoamerica where the game was played. You can also see some of the artifacts from Mesoamerica. This website is a great example of what the internet can do to produce interactive experiences.

Featured Link of the Month for May 2002:
This month's "Link of the Month" is a website by Michael Walkingstick Gregory. His website looks at part of the history of his family, the Walkingsticks. Michael is a very distant cousin, but, aren't all Cherokees? :-) My great grandmother was Nancy Walkingstick. Michael and I share a relative many generations back. You will find lots of information on Michael's family on his site. More than that, though, you will see the time, effort and love which went into the production of this website. He has included pictures and excerpts from important documents of the time. A link to the next page is at the bottom of each page. I highly recommend a visit to Michael's site:

Indian Trust: Cobell v. Babbitt
This website documents the effort to get the U.S. federal government to properly handle funds being held "in trust" for American Indians. It is a real education.
There was no Featured Link of the Month for February 2002:
Featured Link of the Month for January 2002:
Tribal Court Clearinghouse
Tribal Court Clearinghouse has a wide variety of resources. You can find an extensive listing of court cases, law review articles, info on treaties, alcohol and substance abuse programs, and many, many more subjects. It also has links to many more sites. I highly recommend a visit to this very well laid out website.
Featured Link of the Month for December 2001:
Spanish Conquest of Native America
To quote the site: "This Site provides a Twenty-first Century glimpse at the oldest written history of America." It is very well designed and provides LOTS of information. There are maps, travelogs, detailed articles, pictures. and much more. If you have any interest in the history of the original "explorers" of the United States, this is the site to visit. I highly recommend it.
Featured Link of the Month for November 2001:
My Trip to the Ancient Ruins of Mexico and Guatemala in 2001
This is my site on my recent trip. It features approximately 800 photos of several ruins, museums and interesting (in my opinion) places.
Featured Link of the Month for October 2001:
AZTEC Student Teacher Resource Center
This is an excellent site by Thomas H. Frederiksen. It is a part of his bigger site on Mexico. The site deals with graphics, medicine, religion, leaders ad other aspects of the Aztec. If you want to know about about this Mexican tribe, this is a good place to begin.
Featured Link of the Month for September 2001:
http://www.cherokee.org/
The September 2001 "Link of the Month" is the official website for the Cherokee Nation of Oklahoma. The Cherokee website is an excellent example of how a tribe has made use of modern technology. The website contains lots of information for the public and tribal members, as well. It has an extensive audio section, historical information, free downloads of the Cherokee language font, and soon, a language translation section. This is truly a standard for all other tribes. OK, I will admit I am a bit biased, but after all, I am Cherokee.
Featured Link of the Month for August 2001:
The Link of the Month for August 2001 is the "Making of America" website. It is a large collection of books, maps, and a wide variety of other things. If you go to the search section and type in "Indian," it will show you a large selection of digital photocopies of old books. I have used some of the data here to help compile the material for the "Dates" section of my website (and the History section below). I have found it very interesting (depressing, enlightening, etc.) to read the actual words of people involved in making the history of the United States. For example, thereare several reprints of works written by George Custer, just to name one. You will also find this website covers many subjects other than on American Indians.
Click here for "Making of America"
Featured Link of the Month for July 2001:
I am taking a different tack in this month's "Link of the Month." To help show some of the wide diversity in American Indians, I decided to feature Arigon Starr. Her site is at:
http://www.arigonstarr.com/
Here is a description from her website: "Native American Diva, Arigon Starr. She is a Native American Music Award winner and a member of the Kickapoo Tribe of Oklahoma." Her music, or what I have heard, is best described as rock. You might enjoy checking her out.
Featured Link of the Month for June 2001:
This month's link of the month specializes in information on American Indians in Ohio. Ohio History Central has lots of different information, but you can also find out about Ohio's original inhabitants. Click on any of the links other than "Natural Ohio," and you will find a wealth of information on the local Indians. You can find it at:
http://www.ohiokids.org/ohc/index.html
Featured Link of the Month for May 2001:

Featured Link of the Month for January 2001:
Navajo Genealogy and Family History of Harrison Lapahie Jr
Harrison's site was one of the first "personal home pages" I found on the web. I enjoyed
visiting his site when I first saw it several years ago. I came back to his site recently while
doing research. It is still a nice site. It presents Diné (Navajo) history, a map, genealogy,
pictures, and many other thngs. It is well worth a visit.
Featured Link of the Month for December 2000:
"Indian Land Cessions in The United States."
This site has a series of maps which show the way in which Indian lands were sold, lost or
taken away. If you like maps, which I do, you will find this site to be a treasure trove of
information. "Your hosts are Fred Smoot and Dr. Wayne C. Moore." I highly recommend a visit to
this site.
Featured Link of the Month for November 2000:
Bureau of Indian Affairs
This is the website of the part of the United States government which deals with American
Indians. It lists current activities, press releases, tribal information, links, and other
general information. It also has information on how to trace your relatives. To be a member of
most tribes in the USA, you must first prove to the BIA that you are related by blood to someone
whom they consider to be an Indian. They also discuss this. It is worth a look.
Featured Link of the Month for October 2000:
Virtual Palenque
This month's site is another fine example of advances in Internet technology. Virtual
Palenque makes good use of a program called QuickTime VR to deliver 360 degree pictures from
all over the Maya ruins in Palenque, Mexico. It also provides very detailed descriptions of
the ruins. If you cannot make the trip to Palenque, visiting this site would give you a good
idea of what it would be like to be there.
Featured Link of the Month for September 2000:
Instituto Nacional de Antropología e Historia
The name of this site translates to "National Institute of Antropology and History." It is a very comprehensive site about Mexico. Most of it's pages are in Spanish, but, even if you do not read this language, you can enjoy this website. It's archaeology section appears to detail every significant ruin in the country. It also offers very detailed information about the ancient people of Mexico. I highly reccommend a visit to this site.
Featured Link of the Month for August 2000:
Yaxuná Archaeology Project
This site documents a special project being conducted at Yaxuná in the Yucatán peninsula of Mexico. The site has an amazing collection of Quicktime Virtual Reality pictures of this Mayan ruin. You can see many different ruins and get some very detailed explanation. It has maps, links and other interesting things. Phillip Hofstetter is to be applauded for this excellent use of the medium.
Featured Link of the Month for July 2000:
Indian Country Today Online
"Indian Country Today, a weekly newspaper that covers national news and events, is currently
distributed in all fifty states and in seventeen foreign countries." I have been getting a
copy of their printed version for few months now and it was interesting looking at all of
different subjects being covered. If you are interested in what is happening in "Indian Country,"
this is a good place to look.
Featured Co-Links of the Month for June 2000:
Tribes, States and Government Agency
This site has a very LONG list of links. It has them nicely sorted into catagories, as well. You can find all kinds of places here.

Featured Link of the Month for May 2000:
The Journal of the Indian Wars
This month's link is to "a quarterly publication dedicated to interpreting the American Indian wars." It has become a very impressive publication. While the subject matter is somewhat narrow in scope, the details are extensive. While preparing the dates section of my site, I came across many well produced works. I remain impressed by the depth of the material in this publication. The website contains detailed samples from each issue of this publication.

Native American Navigator Project Pages
This site's stated goal is to provide "easy access to Native American information and organizations, a forum for student discussions and publication of their project work, and tools for Native Amercian research within the networked classroom." It also has an excellent map of the United States. You can click on a region and it will show you a more detailed map. Click again, and it takes you to a links page for that area. Set some time aside to explore this very informative site.
Featured Link of the Month for January 2000:
~BamaRiver Native American Wisdom~
This is a bit different from the other "Link of the Month" sites I have listed so far. It is a bit smaller and offers a smaller selection of on-page information or links. However, "Bama" offers up some excellent pieces of Native Wisdom. This site is the home of a very enjoyable daily e-mail newsletter. The newsletters usually serve up a daily offering of insights, stories or biographies. It is well worth a visit, and even an application to get their newsletter.
Featured Link of the Month for December 1999:
Rider's Native Information Exchange
Rider have a very nice site. There are lots of links and information on many different subjects. It also includes information from John Swanton's monumental work on the Indians of North America.

Featured Co-Link of the Month for November 1999:

In honor of this event, this site is the Co-Link of the Month. The Indian Health Service has created a page to celebrate this event. They have a nice calendar of events, among other things.
Featured Co-Link of the Month for November 1999:
RootsWeb Genealogical Data Cooperative
I receive more questions on genealogy than on any other subject. One of the very best places to conduct a genealogical seach is Rootsweb. This is a MASSIVE organization. There are thousands of dedicated people who have made web pages within this site. You can find lots of information on all cultures, races and areas, but they have excellent resources for North American Indians, as well.
Featured Link of the Month for October 1999:
Native American Baby Names
Other than questions on genealogy, (which I always refer to the sites on my genealogy links page) the most common question I get from my e-mail is a request to find someone a name. So, here is a site with lots of names from many different tribes. Enjoy!
Featured Link of the Month for September 1999:
Indigenous Peoples' Literature
Glenn H. Welker has created a very comprehensive site. It includes links to many sites, information on many tribes, biographies on many people, and a very large selection of Native literature. Glenn now has his own address at whitestareagle.com. You can find links to his pages throughout my links pages. Additionaly, he has discussions on ongoing social issues. This is a site well worth visiting!
Featured Link of the Month for August 1999:

if not THE best. While it specializes in Cherokee history, it also has many other well written articles,
maps, pictures, artwork, and genealogical information. It also has an extensive links section on both
Cherokee and other American Indian sites. Ken's site is well worth an extended visit.
Featured Link of the Month for June 1999:
Native Web Site Evaluation
Elaine Cubbins' excellent site with guidelines on evaluating sites for their validity.
This is a great place for people exploring "native cultures" on the web to start their search.
Featured Link of the Month for May 1999:
A Line in the Sand
Cultural property includes not only land and other tangible property, but ideas, traditions, and other
non-tangibles. Cultural property belongs to the cultural group, rather than to an individual. As an individual has the
right to control use of his/her property, the cultural group has the right to control the use of its property. Not all people
recognize cultural property. As a result some individuals will use another group's cultural properties without
permission; often that use is offensive to the cultural group, because their property is used in a way that distorts or is
disrespectful to the group's beliefs.

Featured Link of the Month for March 1999:
