Sachem or
Shechaim or Sagamore?
So which is the
correct name?
Well I guess it all
depends on which tribe
or
(today’s nation),
you ask.
Up until a few years
ago
I could care less about the name
what's in a name?
I changed my mind
after finding out what non knowing citizens out of our area
said their
understanding of the word.
If you,
as one of my
followers
also think,
Sack-Um for Sachem,
you now know why I went back to my
ancestors original word,
Shechaim.
Shechaim sounds
like( She-Chaim) Sachem sounds like (Sack-Um).
I have also noticed
recently that some tribes from Canada, now in this country, use the name
Sagamore.
Sagamore is a
correct name just not in our area, just like Chief is a correct name west of
the Mississippi, the same name is (chief) to our people.
(chief is the lowest
offices in the navy
or
a leader of
a Plains Indian tribe).
It is also a worker
in a traditional tribe
from the east coast of
(Native American/Indian country).
While this is true,
this is very important to remember,
once that job was finished the person
(Sagamore),
is no longer that chief,
people over look this truth from the ancestors!
To our people,
the
Head Clan Mother
assigns the work and who will lead that job
(Sagamore),
after the job is finished
(Sagamore),
after the job is finished
that leader (Sagamore),
goes back to being
a normal
member of the people.
