Regime and Artifacts from the Tequesta Indians History from the sixteenth century describes a powerful Florida Indian Tribe known as the Tequesta Indians. The Tequesta Indians was the first tribe in South Florida; they built many villages near the Miami River also beside the coastal island. The Tequesta lifestyle was a small, nonviolent and Native American Tribe, they left many marvelous treasures that archeologists have uncovered, for example, prehistorical artifacts of animal bones, shells also ceramics or pottery. To begin with, the Tequesta Indians was a small, nonviolent and Native American Tribe. The Tequesta Indians and their ancestors accumulated food from berries, nuts, and fish like mako shark and swordfish.
Tomahawk The tool I’m writing about is the Tomahawk(small throwing weapon.) pre- columbian tribes need this weapon because it has many different uses. They also need this tool because it is very important to many tribes. The Tomahawk is small.
Bolts and stones for these early ballistae were assembled on the battlefield. These smaller ballistae required little specialized knowledge to build, and consequences for mistakes wouldn’t be as severe as most parts were wooden and able to be easily remade. The later, and much larger, ballista were made of large amounts of metal and delicately cut wood. Mathematicians and professional artisans were needed to design and build these weapons. Their massive projectiles (some exceeding 150lbs) were pre-rounded by craftsmen and thus had to be transported.
Native American tribes have been used, abused, and decimated throughout history, and it all started with European contact. The Chumash are a group of Native Americans that are located in the California culture area. They are one of the more peaceful Native American tribes, and one of the largest. They had unique subsistence strategies and food reliance because of their location, which was basically in between the coast and inland California. Prehistoric Chumash territory was very vast, and was significantly reduced during European contact.
Sharp (1952) mentions that the men of each tribe must precisely know where the materials used to create the stone axes in their surrounding environment (p. 552). From a functionalist perspective, the men’s craft of the stone axes serve as an important contribution to the tribes due to the fact that they use the axes for daily tasks (Schaefer 2016, p. 12). With the stone ax, the women would often use it to obtain firewood for their “family campfire” that they have for cooking, protection, and warmth (Sharp 1952, p. 552). This would serve as another part of the Yir Yoront’s lives as the members rotate between the men performing the hard labor tasks of hunting animals and crafting stone axes and the women preserving the way of life for the children. Moreover, the stone ax was utilized to place the stronger and older men at the top of their society through the women and children respecting them (Sharp 1952, p. 553).
The object I made was the sword Beowulf used to kill Grendel’s Mother, the sword was called Hrunting. I chose this object for my project because I believe that this was a very important thing that was used in the story. This sword was use to behead Grendel’s Mother, and to also bring home Grendel’s head to Hrothgar who was the king of the Danes. This sword is important because it has power! It defeated the antagonist and brought home Grendel’s head which showed victory and honor in the king’s
Technologically, only men possessed the knowledge about the materials used and the techniques of manufacturing the stone axes. Women and children could use the axes, but were not allowed to make them. The stone axe had become an integral part of the society and was used for many activities, such as obtaining food, household purposes, building huts, cutting firewood etc. There was a certain area where the stones necessary for making these axes were found. This formed a chain of tradesmen throughout the country.
A predominant Native American country, the Cherokee controlled unfathomable domains spreading transversely over Tennessee, Georgia and the Carolinas. The Cherokee were clever people who regarded nature and utilized all aspects of a creature after a killing, yet they were additionally superstitious. Deep-rooted techniques joined with community old stories and polytheistic religion prompted a profoundly novel arrangement of hunting traditions/rituals among the Cherokee. At the point when young men wished to be hunters they needed to converse with the minister, who was responsible for preparing them.
Spears - A spear is a long wooden projectile used to puncture objects and animals. Many societies use them but more primitive societies create spears out of wood or hard materials as the spear is primarily used for throwing creating design for effective aerial dynamics. Boomerangs - The boomerang is a weapon invented by the Aboriginal which is normally used for hunting but can be used for ceremonies. The boomerang is very complex because of how it works and its design.
Totem poles are interesting pieces of tradition and history. Traditionally used by the native peoples of the Northwestern coast, they are popular pieces of art among society and are considered a big part of Coastal Indian culture. Despite their importance, nobody can really agree on what totem poles are meant for. They are usually said to be storytellers or marks of prestige, as well as a way to honor the deceased. Nowadays they are often made for art, but their traditional purposes still stand.
Longswords The Longsword is a type of European sword used during the late medieval period, approximately 1350 to 1550 (with early and late use reaching into the 13th and 17th centuries, respectively). Longswords have long cruciform hilts with grips over 10 to 15in length providing room for two hands. Straight double-edged blades are often over 1 m to 1.2 m (40" to 48") length, and weigh typically between 1.2 and 2.4 kg (2½ to 5 lb), with light specimens just below 1 kg (2.2 lb), and heavy specimens just above 2 kg (4½ lb).

The coins were used as a money system. They did not just make coins; they also made monuments, weapons, and everyday objects, like silverware, vases, etc. Gupta Empire metal workers were also very good with iron. They made an iron pillar that was 7.21 meters tall. The pillar is located in a place called Mehrauli.

They used clay not only to make pots but also to make bronze sculptures. They would start with a clay shape and put wax on the outside of the clay, then they would layer more clay on top of the wax. Next they would fire the sculpture to melt the wax and pour the bronze into the clay mold that was left over. Lastly they would break the clay and be left with the bronze statue.
