This blog is about the story of the Arapaho Native American and how they lived.
The Apache were known for being powerful, brave, and aggressive. It is believed that because their language is similar, that the Apache and Navajo were once a lone ethnic group. The Apache were a large tribe, dating as far back as the early 1500s.
The Apache dominated much of northern Mexico, Arizona, New Mexico, and Texas for hundreds of years. It is estimated that about 5,000 Apache lived in the Southwest in 1680 AD. Some Apache lived in the mountains, while others lived on the plains.
The last of the Apache wars ended in 1886 with the surrender of Geronimo and his few remaining followers. The Chiricahua tribe was evacuated from the West and held as prisoners of war successively in Florida, in Alabama, and at Fort Sill, Oklahoma, for a total of 27 years.
The name Apache comes from a Zuni word meaning "our enemies"; their own names for themselves are Ndee, Inday, and Dine'é, which mean "the people" in their languages.
The Navajo and the Apache are closely related tribes, descended from a single group that scholars believe migrated from Canada. ... When the hunter-gatherer ancestors of the Navajo and Apache migrated south, they brought their language and nomadic lifestyle with them.
The Arapaho tribe lived in tipis.
A tipi (also called tepee or teepee) is a kind of tent. It is cone-shaped. They were made by Native Americans of the Great Plains who frequently moved from place to place, following buffalo or other animals Native Americans hunted. Teepees are made from long poles, and are covered with material.
