Native American Tribe Series

Sekani

 

A group of Athapascan tribes who lived in the valleys of upper Peace River and its tributaries and on the west slope of the Rocky Mountains, in British Columbia, Canada. Their name means "dwellers on the rocks.”  At one time, they were untied into one large tribe, but due to their nomadic ways, gradually separated into small distinct tribes, having no affiliation with one another. Though of slighter build and shorter stature than neighboring tribes, they were described as having great savageness. Their complete isolation in the Rocky mountains and their reputation for merciless and cold-blooded savagery cause them to be dreaded by other tribes. Though nomadic, they didn’t sleep in tents, but rather brush huts that were often open to the weather. Subsisting on wild game, they didn’t fish, looking upon it as an unmanly occupation. They had no chiefs but the oldest and most influential in each band was looked upon for council. In 1893, they were divided into nine tribes, each being composed of a number of bands.

Headed up this way at lunch to grab a few on the first hot-ish day of the year. The sun felt great, but I was a little worried it would make the wasps and snakes a bit extra active. Luckily I didn't see either. Unfortunately, unluckily I believe I DNFed more than I found. Yay this was one of the finds. I had a little trouble with the log, it's dry but smushed in the container. I got lots of bits and pieces, but couldn't get the log itself. Thanks for the smiley! Find #3679.
