  • Before we had written laws, justice was determined through a consensus of our tribe’s clan structure. In this Cherokee Almanac, we take a look at Cherokee systems of justice and their evolution over time.

    There is a book 'Cherokee Clans: an Informal History' by Donald Yates.
    Donald Yates says that there used to be 12 clans.
    Clans of the Cherokee with JP Johnson is on UA-cam. He explains how a clan could be lost among other clan related information. I believe he works for the Heritage Center.

    • @jbsulls
      @jbsulls 3 роки тому +6

      It's very difficult do, due in part to the Dawes Commission and the Resettlement in Oklahoma. Unless you luck out and have a matrilineal ancestral lineage that is mentioned somewhere in the historical texts.

    Its funny how similar to jewish traditions the old ways seem, no pork, seventh day sabbath, baptize in water, even the old language was similar to the language Moses was asked to write the Torah as there were two types of Hebrew back then, the common one being used called in lay terms block Hebrew, even the writer James Adair made this connection being Jewish himself it was a spiritual experience for him to find here, it seems it really saddened him to see so many turn to modern ways. The old snake ate its tail.

      Adair was Irish not Jewish being one of his descendants. Cherokee is not similar to Hebrew or any Semitic language. Aramaic, Hebrew, Arabic, Amharic all contain a lot of similarities. Cherokee is Iroquoian.

    Natives are beautiful
    Absolutely beautiful.
    Look at all of history and most groups of people were barbaric ...it seems natives just weren't. They didn't participate in slavery either. As in keep slaves from my knowledge.
    These people honestly had things right. Except I think the death sentence shouldn't be a thing....ever.
