Native American Links

Native American Links Page

These links are provide for you as resource material. Some of them are strictly for pleasure and some are for serious research. I have tried to list them so you can find what you might be looking for. If there is a URL that you feel belongs here then please E-mail me and I will take it under advisement. I have looked at most of these extensively and feel they are appropriate. There are a few outstanding links that will be listed at the top portion of the list. I feel they are outstanding sites by people who have done a lot work with much care and love, so have listed them first. I have tried to list the links in order, but I will be revising this page often, so things may get moved around a bit. If you find any of them offensive and feel they should be removed for any reason please let me know. The E-mail button is below.

Thank you ...

Let's begin this list with the top few links I have found on the WWW. This first one is particularly outstanding and those who have worked on this project have done years of work compiling this information so that all of us can have access to it. My thanks to Martin Broken Leg at Augustana College, Sioux Falls, SD, and Raymond Bucko, S.J. at Le Moyne College, Syracuse, NY, for their monumental work and effort. It is a truely outstanding site!

Lakota Wowapi Oti Kin: Lakota Information Homepage

This next link is something I thought was very special. It is a virtual reproduction of the Great Kiva at Chaco Canyon as it might have been hundreds of years ago. For those of you who are against technology, you had better skip this one as it is extremely impressive! (and if you are, what are you doing on a computer?) There is a tour to take and also quick time movies and music. It is provided by John Kantner from USCB. Thank you John and all those who have worked so hard on this wonderful project.

Next on my list of personal favorites is a site by Paula Giese. She has put Plentystuff (name of site) on her main site of links. It is a main menu of other menus for links! Plus it has some really cute graphics created by her. This page has some wonderful places for you to visit and you better pack a lunch! I could be there for days... Below I have listed some of her other links for you to visit. Thank you Paula for your kind heart and dedicated work.

Main Menu: Native American Indian Plentystuff

Here is another link that I found very special. The work for it was done by Paula Giese again and is remarkable in its material.

It is available through Sinte Gleshka Rosebud Reservation Lakota University, and is a compilation of work gathered from the Native Elders. Our thanks again Paula ...
