Question 2

Discuss the impact of European colonization on the Indian societies of North America.How did the Native Americans react to the dangers inherent in contact with the whites?

Accepted Answer

The spread of European diseases such as smallpox decimated the tribes along the Atlantic Seaboard and precipitated intertribal warfare."Mourning Wars" in which bereaved families replaced lost members through battle and with kidnapping and adoption of tribal enemies became more common.Captured females and children were assimilated into the captor's tribe,while male prisoners were killed.Among the Five Nations,adoption accounted for more than half of the tribal members during the 1660s.Besides diseases,American Indians also acquired guns,cloth,axes,knives,pots,and alcohol from the Europeans.These items transformed Indian society and resulted in tribal dependence on European trade.Traditional skills and social patterns were eroded as Indians competed for and relied on European goods.Alcohol was especially destructive and spread violence and disharmony throughout the Indian communities.In areas where whites and Indians were interdependent,alliances were formed.The fur traders in New France,the Dutch in New Netherlands,and the English in New York and Virginia made peace and mutual defense agreements with local tribes.Some Protestants in New England established "praying towns" where they converted Indians to Christianity.These efforts undermined the traditional power and gender structure of Indian society and caused some young warrior-hunters to fear that their lifestyle was being destroyed.In times of war,whites usually attacked indiscriminately and killed friendly Christian Indians as well as unfriendly non-Christian ones.
