NATIVE AMERICAN POW WOWS
A “pow wow” is a meeting of different tribes.
Native
Americans believed that each tribe had a strong relation with nature and the
world. They sometimes had a meeting with other tribes and prayed.
Through their
prayers, nature answered their questions. These meetings had also dancing and
singing. To show their respect to nature, they imitated animals during their
sacred dances.
Some traditional communities still practice pow wows to honor
their ancestors and preserve their heritage.
