Subject: FW: First indigenous map of its kind; U.S. map displays "Our own names and locations"




I hadn’t seen this on MAPS-L and thought it would be of interest.



“Aaron Carapella, a Cherokee Indian, has taken it upon himself to create a map that shows the Tribal nations of the U.S. prior to European contact. The map is of the contiguous United States and displays the original native tribal names of roughly 595 tribes, and of that, 150 tribes are without descendants. Without descendants means that there is no one known to be alive from that tribe and are believed to be extinct.”
