      Even if he's white, it's still correct. All the eastern woodland tribes litterally captured whites by the score and ADOPTED them as official tribe members. Many even Maintained their native status and were pushed west with the tribes eventually when that time came in history.

    Looks like loads of fun, skill, and adventure. Bear in mind it was originally the smooth bore Fowler or Fusil which
    was the common firearm of early colonists, and later, pioneers. First in matchlock, then later, in flint lock. Modern
    replica/reproductions have been available for decades from Dixie Gun Works, Navy Arms Co., Connecticut
    Valley Arms or CVA, Cabela's etc. Fabricated of modern high strength steels these are are superior to originals
    in regards to strength, safety, and durability. Application during the 21st century? Sure. A skilled woodsman,
    outdoors-man , and practical survivalist could likewise utilize such even today for outdoors survival, hunting, and
    foraging. Since these are antiquated historical black powder single shot muzzle-loaders owning, using, and
    carrying of such if far easier vs. say a modern firearm. Especially in an anti-gun states: New Jersey, Massachusetts,
    Maryland, New York State, Rhode Island, Delaware, California etc. Or take Puerto Rico for instance which earlier
    this year had it's infra-structure destroyed by a devastating hurricane. I'm sure at least one local nimrod has in
    their possession something like this. Especially those who reside in the remote isolated mountain regions.

    I hate to be that guy that seems negative but one thing really stuck with me. I wouldn’t say that the design of quilling on a knife sheathe would specify which nation you’re from. It is much more intricate than that. It definitely shows which area/culture group you’re from due to the different styles of quilling and yes some nations have very specific patterns or styles, habits that they do where yes you can pick out exactly what nation it is from, but something like his knife sheathe, which is beautiful, but a more generic style found commonly in the Great Lakes area, I would say you can definitely tell from the style it’s Great Lakes Iroquoian, but I would not say that you can distinctly tell it is Huron, like he implied a name tag declaring such. It very much could also be one of the other Iroquois groups in the area such as the Haudenosaunee as much as it could be Wyandot.

This comment wasn’t even attached to yours, if you read it it has nothing to do with anything you said and actually goes a long with what you stated. I wasn’t correcting you I was correcting what the guy said in the video about quill work essentially being a name tag. You and I are fighting for the same thing don’t worry, I’m not a reenactor neither.

      Once exposed to European fitearms the native Americans fairly quickly transitioned to using them themselves. They would trade pelts, mainly beaver, for them. It was said that they would trade a stack of furs as high as a musket was long.

      Anyway I've watched loads of videos different tribes against each other and colonies and settlers and The US Army and The Texas Rangers and The Mexican bandits.
      But I am interested in ALL things Native Indian related.. Including culture, food, survival, hunting techniques, signalling, tracking, trapping, making untensils and how they make clothing pretty much everything just so you know I am not just being an ass..

He was 69 years old when I did this video so he must be about 74 now. We are going to the battle of Bighorn in June, this is where Custer died. That looks like an awesome reenactment. I have other videos on Fort Niagara in a playlist. Have you ever been to one of these events?

      Connor I’d say all of what he is wearing is pretty common for 1750s with the exception of his woven sash. That’s an assumption or Métis woven sash, that style is being made a little later than the 1750s.

      @whitewampum2 3 роки тому +3

      @@lusolad Sure. Starting with his head piece, it has porcupine hair in it which is incorrect for 18th century. Face paint is the wrong color, it should be a brighter red to mimic vermillion. I forget the name of the gorget around his neck. Hard to say, but I would assume that is made out of German silver just as his ring brooches are. I can tell just by looking at them that they've either been bought at Crazy Crow Trading Post or Wandering Bull or other like store as were the brass bracelets around his wrists. His arm bands are also German silver and have an incorrect design on them. Silver work should always be sterling. I can't comment on his ear rings or nose ring unless I see them up close. He gets a pass on the knife sheath, although the knife itself should have a different handle. He also gets a pass on the club, although whatever is hanging off the handle should be taken off. I've never seen an existing, or have read descriptions of a turkey wing bone call. He also has modern tin tinklers with the ends crimped on it. That is not common for Eastern Woodlands. The bags he has on his shoulders one is made out of leather and one out of some type of fiber. Native shoulder bags should be either brain tanned leather with quillwork, or finger woven. The sash is a modern "assumption" type also found at places like Crazy Crow. That should be finger woven as well. Hard to tell what type of fabric his shirt is made out of but it's definitely machine sewn. It should ideally be hand-sewn or at least hand finished. On another video I can see his leggings are modern commercial tan leather, which should be brain tanned or made out of stroud wool. Can't tell what the material of his breechcloth is, but also has the incorrect ring brooches on it. Also can't see his garters but they don't look finger woven either, and cannot see his moccasins.
