Native Fashion history tidbits
(Peter Pan & Wendy, + Prey)
[image description: two large gifs stacked on top of each other. One is a gif of the film Peter Pan and Wendy, featuring the Native Tigerlily. One arrow points from her dress to another image of a dress edited overtop, while another arrow points from her hair to a cropped image of a painting of a Cree woman with similar hair. Text below the Dress image reads, "Cree side fold dress", while the text under the hair reads "Traditional Cree hairstyle, two small braids at side of the face, while rest of the hair hangs loose". The second image is of Naru from Prey, also with an arrow pointing from her clothing to an edited image of a top shirt, while the other arrow points from her feet towards an image of moccasins laid overtop. The text under the shirt reads, "Comanche woman's top, fringed at sleeves", while the text under the moccasins image reads, "High top moccasins with fringe, their allies (the Kiowa) had popularized the look in the 1700s". end image description.]

Naru and Sarii (fan art)
Tumblr media
A quick sketch of Amber Midthunder's character from the 2022 movie Prey (plus her dog), that I did on a lazy Sunday night after binging a bunch of online content related to the Predator franchise.
It may be a prequel installment for an action-horror-scifi franchise, but Prey has some really darn good representation of Comanche culture, and I was particular enthralled by effort and attention-to-detail that was highlighted in interviews and behind-the-scenes videos I was consuming on YouTube. Producer Jhane Myers put a lot of creative work in to get things right, and I think it's great seeing that indigenous persons were for once exercising creative control of a movie about them.
Btw, I definitely dig Sarii the dog too :)

The fascinating world of the Comanche tribe is as rich as it is complex. From their Shoshone origins to their conflicts with other tribes, their story encompasses conquering new lands and resisting European encroachment. With a deep connection to nature and enduring traditions, their culture lives on in the heart of Oklahoma and beyond.

Set in the Comanche Nation 300 years ago, Prey is the story of a young woman, Naru, a fierce and highly skilled warrior. She has been raised in the shadow of some of the most legendary hunters who roam the Great Plains, so when danger threatens her camp, she sets out to protect her people. The prey she stalks, and ultimately confronts, turns out to be a highly evolved alien predator with a technically advanced arsenal, resulting in a vicious and terrifying showdown between the two adversaries.

In far west Texas and eastern New Mexico, there is a land so flat you’ll swear, if you squint hard enough into the infinite horizons, that you can see the back of your head. This treeless, sand dune, canyon and grass filled country stretches some fifty thousand square miles of land that used to be called The Great American Desert but today, is called The Llano Estacado or the High Staked Plains. In the deep past, it was home to Ground Sloths, Mammoths, and Bison before Clovis, Apache, and then the Comanche. The Spanish explored it, the New Mexicans hunted buffalo on it, the Americans fought the Indians on and around it. Coronado, Oñate, Kit Carson, and Robert E Lee all travelled across or around it’s flat emptiness.
In this Roadrunner exclusive episode of the American Southwest Podcast, I cover all of that and a whole lot more as I uncover the Tierra Incognita that is El Llano Estacado. I discuss what it looks like, how it distorts the mind, the creatures that live on it, the violent weather, the history of the American Indians including the mysterious Teya, the Spanish, The French, The English, the New Mexicans, the Comancheros, the Contrabandistas, the Ciboleros, the Texans, and finally, the Americans. I introduce important Southwestern Characters, animals, peoples, cultures, and battles. I quote from great authors who wrote fantastic books about the place that only those who hunted the bison, and those that hunted the bison hunters ever dared to venture into.
This is the first of many exclusive episodes for the Subscribers or Roadrunners and at 3 hours and 30 minutes, I hope that it satisfies everyone’s desire for awesome and exciting information on the American Southwest. Thank y’all for subscribing and listening.

Is it true that native Americans didn't believe in the concept of "private ownership" of land? If so, why did so many tribes fight each other or attack anyone who intruded into their lands?
Originally Answered: Is it really true that native Americans didn't believe in the concept of "private ownership" of land? If that is the case, then why did so many tribes fight each other or attack anyone who intruded their lands?
For a start, that’s not private ownership. It’s more like collective ownership. That is, land isn’t divided up into individual plots which this or that person can use or dispose of as they please. Rather, the land is collectively held by the entire tribe.
Moreover, the kinds of ownership involved were much looser than the way we conceive of property rights these days. This whole “attack anyone who intruded on their lands” bit is essentially fiction created by people who wrote westerns or (white) outsiders’ somewhat exaggerated descriptions of increasing hostility and defensiveness in reaction to generations of warfare late in the colonial era. That is, indigenous peoples learned and adopted ideas of ownership because that system was to a considerable extent forced on them. Before all of that, groups had lands they traditionally inhabited and used, but they recognized that other people might travel through their territory, hunters might cross over into their lands in pursuit of game they were chasing, and so on. These were largely regarded as legitimate. Indeed, in most cases, modest numbers of newcomers were accommodated. This person or this family have wandered in and want to settle down? Well, nobody’s using that patch of ground over there; it’ll be fine if they go use it. Substantive incursions would get pushback, but even that was less about defending property and more about defending the people and their survival. If tribe A comes in and hunts all the deer near tribe B, tribe B starves. The land itself isn’t the issue as much as the ability to inhabit the places they’ve habitually inhabited.
Oh, and let’s not forget that there were hundreds of societies across what became the US, each with their own ideas about property and ownership. More nomadic groups tended to have much looser ideas of ownership than more sedentary ones. People like, say, the Zuni or the Navajo would have a different approach to property than the Comanche or the Salish, so a lot depends on exactly who you’re talking about.
