They aren’t the original from Florida they are a descendent of the creek nation that inhabited Georgia the real inhabitants from Florida were wiped out be the Spanish and diseases.but the video is nice
I like the video, however the Miccosukee are not from the Everglades, they are originally from Sowega or South West Georgia where they moved after the complete collapse of the Mississippian Culture. I presently live in the heart of the Chiaha land where they settled after the fall of the late Mississippian Culture and DeSoto's encounter with them in North GA near the Tennessee line eventually ending up there by the early/middle part of the 18th Century (after Queen Anne's War and the final expulsion of the Spanish Missions in the region). I live not far from where the Muckalee enters the Flint River and about 15 miles from the original Fowl Town before it moved south to where the Flint and the Chattahoochee intersect. The Chiaha aka Miccosukee actually helped clear out the native population of Florida during the 17th and early 18th Century by raiding and selling the natives to English planters in the Carolinas as slaves. The Creek Confederation played a large part in the demise/extinction of the Calusas and the Tequestas who were the natives in that area. The Florida native slave trade is what made the Creek Confederacy so strong by the middle 18th Century. Even Billy Powell aka Osceola is from near Tallassee Alabama fleeing from there with Peter McQueen and Red Stick supporters after the Battle of Horseshoe Bend. Warriors from Chiaha Town in present day Lee Co. GA, who were Miccosukee actually sided with William McIntosh and his Militia who marched with Jackson in the 1st Seminole War. Sorry for the long post, but I was just trying to point out that the Miccosukee, while they now live in the Everglades, they are not from there and only settled there towards the middle of the 19th Century due to continued war with the US.
I was told the Miccosukee were not called Miccosukee until they were in Florida because they are a tribe made up of different remnants of smaller tribes who were getting away from wars over a couple of hundred years or close..The Yuchee. ( some ) are part of the Miccosukee ..my relatives are from there
As a Christian, I've come to understand God never intended for us to be cut off from nature the way we have. In Genesis, when God created the first man Adam, God put him in a garden, not a building. Adam was charged with naming the animals, caring for the creation and cultivating the ground; intimately learning together with the Creator. The garden is man's natural habitat. Not saying buildings are wrong but we were never meant to be totally separated from respecting and understanding how the land and water works. The native tribes possess a perspective that many church ministries are missing out on. The more plants and animals around me the more I feel the Creator's love, joy and peace. Everything he has made says something special about him. His thoughtfulness and care towards us.
What you doing is incredible so few people are trying to keep their Heritage alive my teaching the Young. the most beautiful enjoyable thing is being able to experience different cultures keep up the good work. Thank you
OMG LOVE IT! I saw this ad today and found it funny as can be! By far my favorite ad of the year! Great job! Sadly they didn't show the "REETREEAT" part haha that just made it so much better! Cause you know, leaves CAN'T retreat (even though we all wish they could)
i won a 3,000 jackpot in slots at Miccosukee casino in miami and the machine glitched and didnt pay out (with my friend as a witness because we shared the machine/split winnings) it did the animation of the win but didnt pay we told the casino they didnt help dont go there
The Creek Confederacy, of which the Miccosukee were part of, played a large part in the eradication of both the Calusa and the Tequesta people. They gained their wealth early on by selling natives from Florida to the British as slaves in the Carolinas.
If the tribe could provide some links, I would appreciate it. As I teach my children to appreciate their homeland, basic Miccosukee would be a great addition to the curriculum!
Mason, Because of their privacy and strict adherence to the traditional rules and norms of their community the tribe will ensure their survival for generations to come. Remember the Miccosukee (proper spelling), and the Seminole tribes share the same ancestry. The Miccosukee tribe aren’t going anywhere.
Cool art!! if the world can shift to supporting and understading we are only a part of nature, we don't dominate or are entitled to take nature, we would do better.
