Long before the first Europeans set foot on American soil, the native people who lived there had spent centuries perfecting the art of combat. Even after visitors arrived from across the vast oceans with superior technology and weaponry, Native American guerilla tactics prevailed so thoroughly that the invaders were forced to adopt similar strategies. From the Mourning Wars tactics to the tactics of the French and Indian War, Native American soldiers and scouts proved themselves capable of immense cunning and incredible feats of military prowess.

The Natives held their own pretty damn well in the era of muzzleloaders. They were quick and accurate with their bows and deadly in a close quarters melee. Custer got his men massacred because he was an impatient, arrogant fool. Little Big Horn and Isandlwana have many similarities. Underestimating their ' Primative ' foe was a fatal error.

They actually looted alot of that technology for their selves. Had they stuck with primitive bow technology the whole time they fought colonial settlers they would have quickly have been defeated. A arrow may leave horrible lacerations, but a .54 cal musket is day and night, also effective range of engagement is superior to the tune of a bow in the best of times pre 1800s would have a effective range of about 30-60yrds while a flintlock might see 0-300+yrds. Tactically speaking to shoot a bow you have to present more of yourself to shoot and need more space to shoot than with a gun. Natives where quick to realize this and made a priority to obtain both horse and rifles when possible.

The settlers called them _'Braves'_ for a reason. On the ground, in the thick of battle and even its aftermath, their tactics often involved just going berserker or sitting in ambush solo and just pouncing on entire groups of soldiers in what was pretty much a kamikaze dash. They tried to chop down as many enemies as they could before getting killed themselves.
@JonBrown-po7he
@JonBrown-po7he Год назад
As a retired U.S. Navy corpsman, those Berserker tactics are responded to by Marines simply standing back, followed by being sprayed with two or three M16s turning the 'idiot' into a bleeding hunk of dead meat. I've seen this occur, the surprise and dismay of this idiot, before he died, was palpable. On the other hand, many techniques adopted from the Beringian Americans (Amerindians) are employed by U.S. special forces today. E pluribus unum, each immigrant group, I believe, can 🤨contribute🤨 to what America is, and might be, or can whine😭 futiley.

@@repentofidols Alright, let’s talk about it since ignorant uneducated Americans clearly don’t know about WHY Native Americans “owned” slaves, only that they did. During the times of slavery and once most Native Americans were being putting on reservations, it is true only A FEW Native Americans tribes (Cherokee, Chickasaw, Choctaw, Creek, Seminole) had taken in slaves. They did not treat them as slaves like the white man however, instead they took in slaves not only to help with what they need more people to do on the reservation, but to protect said slaves from REAL slavery. In The Encyclopedia of Oklahoma City and Culture, it says, “A number of Indian farmers had large tracts of land under cultivation and used enslaved laborers to produce cotton and surplus crops for sale and profit. Most Indian slave owners, however, practiced subsistence agriculture, and both slaves and masters labored side by side in the fields.” It is also known that during this time the number of Afro-Indigenous people increased in numbers. Why? Because once again the slaves weren’t slaves for the Natives and they began to mix, which is why some African-American people today have Native American DNA in them. It states this in The Relevance of Native America to Black History saying, “In shared slavery, enslaved Africans and enslaved Native Americans intermarried with one another.” It also states, “Contact between Africans and Native Americans was not limited to shared slavery. Friendship and trust also formed between African Americans and citizens of sovereign Native American nations, resulting in intermarriage and children.” The Natives never owned slaves the way Europeans did, and this goes to show that. Still want to talk about it? Alright, one last piece of information for you from The Encyclopedia of Oklahoma City and Culture, “Slavery in the Indian nations differed in significant ways from American slavery. By most accounts, black families owned by Indians were not sold apart and usually were permitted to live together even if individual family members had different masters. Indian slaveholders generally did not use violence to control their slaves, and slaves were not regarded as dehumanized beasts of burden. Despite the nations' restrictive slave codes, blacks were allowed to gather on their own for religious services and were usually permitted to learn to read and write.” Is this enough talking about it for you? www.okhistory.org/publications/enc/entry.php?entry=SL003#:~:text=A%20number%20of%20Indian%20farmers,by%20side%20in%20the%20fields. www.fieldmuseum.org/blog/relevance-native-america-black-history

In a very odd way settlers battling Native Americans was like the first draft of Vietnam War. Battling in unfamiliar lands with an enemy using unfamiliar tactics that included psychological warfare..

As an American immigrant whose people (filipinos) had nothing to do with either slavery or the native american genocide, the least us Neo Americans can do is remember those who came before us. The Tribes are, and will always be, part of the United States proper. And they have the absolute right to decide their own course within the Americas. And as an American, I like honoring them by incorporating their names, culture, and people in my stories.

During the American Civil War, I am surprised no Native American tribes took advantage of the conflict to do some damages to the U.S, particularly the South. Why is this? It was their best chance to do some serious damages to the U.S after all.

People talk about the tactics of the Zulu, who defeated the British at Isandlwana in 1879. But that battle-in which over 20,000 Zulu faced about 1200 British-was won due to horrible defensive measures by the British, and overwhelming numerical advantage by the Zulu. Later, at Roaks Drift, and forty years earlier, at Blood River, the Zulu would be defeated by numerically inferior Europeans. Contrast these to the Americas. In the battles talked of here, the Native Americans did not hold a numerical advantage. Even at the Little Big Horn, Custer started out with over 600 troops; about half were surrounded and slaughtered in the battle. The Sioux, Cheyenne and Arapaho, he faced, numbered little more than 1300 warriors at the most. In addition, most of the natives were still armed with bows and arrows. In the other battles discussed, the Natives did not have even that advantage. The American Indian was indeed a formidable opponent. Only technology, the disunity of the tribes, and old war diseases, led to his defeat.
