  • North American Indigenous Warfare And Ritual Violence
  • Attribution

    edited by Richard J. Chacon and Rubén G. Mendoza
  • Publication Details

    Book, University of Arizona Press, 2007
  • Description

    Despite evidence of warfare and violent conflict in pre-Columbian North America, some revisionist writers continue to argue that scholars have exaggerated the scale and scope of Native American violence. Originally presented at a landmark symposium, their findings construct a convincing case that bloodshed and killing have been woven into the fabric of indigenous life in North America for many centuries.The editors argue that a failure to acknowledge the roles of warfare and violence in the lives of indigenous North Americans is itself a vestige of colonial repression?depriving native warriors of their history of armed resistance.
