Once again while going
through my Visitor Tracker, I find that many of the visitors are still asking
about our Adoption ceremony, so a little updating may be necessary about this
also?
I just updated the pipe
now for the Adoption ceremony?
As you may know by now
my people go back long before first contact, I grew up around the New England
area, the first place of this contact.
It was hard enough with
all of the warring tribes from the north always invading looking for an easy
was to live at the expense of other people, now we start getting invaded from
the east by Europeans.
Each traditional tribe
in the area needed to do something or become extinct!
While the friendship
ceremony did except some into a tribe, battles were take our people much faster
than giving birth.
Adoption!
This ceremony was
agreed on and made long and hard because my ancestors knew that keeping the
culture and ceremonies was far more important than just loading up the village!
The defeated enemy was
allowed into the fort village, if they wish to stay however, the tribe needed
to maintained the blood lines!
Enter the Clan Mother
Adoption Ceremony, a way to teach and show the ceremonies and culture hands on,
along with a sacred way of maintaining the blood line!
As explained earlier,
after passing this called (13 Moon Clan Mother Adoption Ceremony) one was
excepted as full blood!
6/12/11 Clan Mother/Adoption into a tribe.
