HY 210 - History of Native America

Institution:

Colorado College

Subject:

Description:

Introduces students to the history of native peoples primarily in North America. The course includes histories of individual native groups as well as the relationship between American Indians and a variety of Europeans from before contact until the present. Examines a variety of primary and secondary materials to see patterns in the ways that Native Americans have been affected by the process of conquest, the ways in which Anglo-Europeans have responded to Native Americans, and in the ways in which American Indians have become a part of and remained apart from "mainstream" American culture. As a broader goal, we also look at the way "history" is made, understood, and used by very different cultural traditions. (Not offered 2008-09.) 1 unit.
