Transcript:

The men of the north woods tribes were the hunters. The hunting season began in the fall and continued until mid winter. These expeditions frequently took the hunters away from the village for long periods of time, moose, deer, beaver, bear, and elk with the animals sort large. Deer drives were common, and small animals were taken with snares, or the bow and arrow. Did the women ever go hunting with the men? The women often accompany their husbands on hunting parties. Their job was to take charge of the camps. Do you mean they just cook for the man? I thought the native americans had more of a system of equality over all men and women shared the labor on hunting expeditions. Women basically supported the men whose job was to procure the game. On the other hand, women controlled other realms of life for example. Women managed all of the agricultural operations. Also a woman headed each clan, and these women were respected for their role as keepers of the clan.
