Subject: Fwd: U.S. Tribal Nations map
Good morning,
Some months ago I began reading about a map of the US that showed the names tribes use/used for themselves. I took a look then and saw some problems but hadn't
yet written a review of it. Yesterday, the map and its maker (Aaron Carapella) were on NPR, so I decided I best write it up.
I focused on the pueblo area of the map. In short, there are some errors in spelling and location, and, it not clear which pueblos on the map are here today, versus
those that were abandoned. A colleague in California and one in Washington also noticed errors in those states/tribes.
The idea of this project is great but in execution, I think it needed more work before being released.
