North American Indian

Date
  • 1900/1940
Description
  • Anthropologists believe that the ancestors of the Indians of North and South America came across the Bering Straits from Siberia and that they were of Mongoloid stock. Certainly all our American natives have the same racial origin. Among our own Indians, the tribes which lived on the plains are the tallest and best types physically. They were wonderful horsemen, skillful hunters, and the buffalo herds furnished them a plentiful living. Even in Oregon we can easily distinguish between the plains Indian, such as the Umatilla, and the Indians who live along the coast.
