Im Native American but tracing my tribe roots are next to impossible, i know my mom and her side were all Indian, but i was told we were Blackfoot Cherokee, which is invalid, because we are from and live in WV. I found out about an ancient tribe called saponi, which were eastern Blackfoot that became adopted by the Seneca, with other saponi relatives. There are few websites and a sign here in WV that talk about the Blackfoot of the Seneca. If anyone can help me track my roots, its appreciated:)

[SHADOWBEAR82763]

@pscforester2013  The Cherokee lived in the Appalacians and the Smokies from Ohio to Georgia

[pscforester2013]

@SHADOWBEAR82763 yes, i am well aware, my mother's dad was cherokee, he lived in Huntington, but my mom's mom was blackfoot as i was told. But she was born in Otter Creek near Parsons, WV. But unless it is that blackfoot of the seneca like i mentioned above, its almost impossible for her to have been full blooded blackfoot. Her family had lived there for over 100 years.

[actor4lyfe]

What year is this from?

[marylogful]

@actor4lyfe It says in the begining of the video that it was recorded in 1913. It was probably on one of those old mechanical phonograph cylinder devices.

YHAY, THAY WAS THE MOST PUREST SONG I HAVE EVER HEARD

[onehalfnative]

This is the Dawn Song. It can be heard sung every morning on CKRZ FM 100.3 The Voice of the Grand.

[rockgrl1959]

I love listening to Native songs and seeing Native dance,it keeps me connected to my Iroquois roots,my native roots don't run very deep,but there still there

[gcpropertymanagement]

Incredible. Can you translate what they are singing into English?

[bitchiecupcake]

I am Seneca, but have no ndn name since i cannot trace my great grandmother. watching this helps me to feel connected, you have done a good thing by posting this song. elizabeth

[Yakokwe]

@bitchiecupcake I'm glad I did it makes me feel proud now that everyone has enjoyed it.

[see2talk]

@Yakokwe some people called it a canoe song but it was a warrior song in the old days done with strong moves and wide stance

[jt6234]

[Yakokwe]

@scorpionking345 Thank you, people enjoy mystery better than history I guess. I thought this one would do better than my Sasquatch video.
