Two men translate, publish Native American prisoner of war letters

Letters translated recently and now in "book form" because of the work of two local men; Dr. Clifford Canku, an enrolled Dakota member of the Sisseton Wahpeton tribe, and Michael Simon, both experts in the Dakota language have translated 50 letters of the 270 prisoner of war in Iowa following the U.S. Dakota War of 1862.

Time to set another record straight!

 
 
 

At the end of the war in 1862, 1,700 Dakota --mostly women and children-- were marched 150 miles to an internment camp at Fort Snelling. Along the way they were attacked by white settlers. Hundreds died at the camp from disease and the harsh winter conditions. Those that survived were taken to a reservation in Crow Creek, S.D. the following spring.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FLORIDA27th state in the USA


 
 

Florida was born on April 2nd 1513 and turned 500 years old today April 2nd 2013.

However, there might be a little confusion to this statement because the original people living here when Juan Ponce de León landed on the East Coast of the area.

Two years later a town was named Saint Augustine and is now called the country's oldest city. Again a little confusion on the part of the Europeans? Cities (Villages) were on this land long before the Spanish, Dutch, French, English and all of the rest of the Europeans arrived to "Claim this land"! Where are the ordinal people of Florida now?

 
 

Hundreds of thousands of Indians already called Florida home when Europeans first arrived in the early 16th century. But it did not take long for the ensuing wars, slave trade and European diseases to nearly wipe out the aboriginal population.
