Food.  Clothing.  Shelter.

The bare necessities are common to all mankind, and yet unique to each culture.  We wanted to learn more about Native American culture by examining the historical food, clothing, and shelter practices of various tribes, especially their change over time in the period surrounding initial contact with European settlers (c. A.D. 1500).  We have collected and analyzed data on these three facets by researching three specific tribes and using digital humanities tools to visualize the information.  We created this website in the hopes that it will serve as a dynamic learning space and resource for teachers and students alike.
