Ok, I know that this subject has been discussed elsewhere
in different posts, but I was wondering if there are any of you
out there who know anything about some of the tradition tattoos
of the Eastern Indians. I've been interested in this subject, but
it is quite difficult to attain real information on it.
Any help is welcome!
Thanks!

| I'm not an expert but my people (Choctaw) and from what I have seen most woodland indians seem to have had tattoos that were that were popular designs in beadwork.. |

"I think the Spirit, is the one thing we have to rely on. It has been handed to us as a live and precious coal. And each generation has to make that decision whether they want to blow on that coal to keep it alive or throw it away...Our language, our histories and culture are like a big ceremonial fire that's been kicked and stomped and scattered... Out in the darkness we can see those coals glowing. But our generation, whether in tribal government or wherever we find ourselves--Choctaw, Cherokee, Chickasaw, Creek, Seminole-- are coal gatherers. We bring the coals back, assemble them and breathe on them again, so we can spark a flame, around which we might warm ourselves." Gary White Deer, Chickasaw 1994 |
