I made this video of the Shoshone tribe whom were located in the territory in California, Idaho, Nevada, Utah, and Wyoming, although most of them seemed to be settled in the Snake river area in Idaho, Shoshone means The Valley People The name means inland, or in the valley.
In 1905, nearly one hundred years after their first contact with the white man, the Lemhi Shoshone began their "Trail of Tears", being forcibly removed from their ancestral homelands to the Fort Hall Indian Reservation to their newly "appointed" home. The Shoshone were few in numbers, their total population being somewhere in the area of 8000. most of my other videos have pictures but also film through the videos.

  • Where could I download this track?

  • @ProtossExecutor100 from Amazon

  • This piece of music moves me and my Native American self like no other. It speaks so clearly of the beauty of the Shoshone spirit if we can go within and listen with our heart. Where might I find this "song" (for lack of a better word)? Thank you so much for your dedication to the people of Mother Earth.

  • @lyricken hiya i get so many people asking the name of song and where to get it so here it is its called Beltane by Ron Allen

  • Being part Cherokee/Choctaw, this music speaks to me. Thank you so much!

  • @Lynviking you are so welcome thank you for watching

  • My people are Cherokee and Blackfoot, we were mountian and forrest peoples. Seeing these pictures is very calming. I often disapear in the mountians and find a silent peaceful place to sit, camp and enjoy the sound of the wild creatures.

    Wado!

  • a word that came to me in a dream,shoshne is that word,it came from my spiritual guide,of whom i think was a great indian chief !!

  • @lawrapara Uhm, actually, our lives our still normal. Like a modern nice home. :D But if you wanna know some things about us then you can message me. My family is setting up a "prayer meeting". It's very interesting if you want to know about that. :)

  • I have a Powhatan ancestor back in the 1600s, but somehow I always felt I was more connected to the Native American people.

    If I am not in body then I am in spirit. Is all I can say.

  • I am not American nor Native but I feel really sad for Native American people. I wonder about how they live unless some of them living in the big cities but I mean how do they live in to the very remote places like twin river area. It would be really cool to be able to get to know some of them and learn their way of life.

  • A glorious tribe, Dancers with the Moon they were and still are. The Divine Goddess speaks in all to you, and it's no sacrifice from Her to remember you, and ALL about you. Blessed are you We shall welcome you into the Chalice of the Un-nameable one, as He comes through frozen tears and the Lake of Her Heart. May it all be right again, to do this, it has to be right. To do this again it has to be right. Even if blind the moves will still be right.
