1923. A group of lectures given by Wissler at the State Universities of Michigan, Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas and also before the Anthropological Society of St. Louis and the Galton Society of New York. The object of these lectures was to present the problems and scope of contemporary anthropology, and recognizing that the most pertinent question before us as a people, is the relation of civilization to man, the emphasis in these pages has been placed upon culture and its biological background.

The Social Life of the Blackfoot Indians

The Blackfoot Confederacy or Niitsitapi, meaning "original people" is the collective name of three First Nation band governments in the provinces of Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia, and one Native American tribe in Montana, United States. The Siksika ("Blackfoot"), the Kainai or Kainah ("Many Chiefs"), and the Northern Piegan or Peigan or Piikani ("Poor Robes") reside in Canada; the Southern Piegan or Pikuni are located in the United States.

Amskapi Pikuni

Written in collaboration with Blackfoot tribal historians and educators, Amskapi Pikuni: The Blackfeet People portrays a strong native nation fighting for two centuries against domination by Anglo invaders. The Blackfeet endured bungling, corrupt, and drunken agents; racist schoolteachers; and a federal Indian Bureau that failed to disburse millions of dollars owed to the tribe. Located on a reservation in Montana cut and cut again to give land to white ranchers, the Blackfeet adapted to complete loss of their staple food, bison—a collapse of what had been a sustainable economy throughout their history. Despite all of these challenges, the nation held to its values and continues to proudly preserve its culture.

The Social Life of the Blackfoot Indians

In this third paper on the ethnology of the Blackfoot Indians full recognition should again be given Mr. D. C. Duvall, with whose assistance the data were collected by the writer on a Museum expedition in 1906. Later, Mr. Duvall read the descriptive parts of the manuscript to well-informed Indians, recording their corrections and comments, the substance of which was incorporated in the final revision. Most of the data come from the Piegan division in Montana. The Blackfoot Confederacy or Niitsitapi, meaning ("original people") is the collective name of three First Nation band governments in the provinces of Saskatchewan, Alberta, and British Columbia. It is also a Native American tribe in Mo...
