I wanna go back in time

#500724 - 11/24/10 11:46 PM (14 years, 6 days ago)

I want to go on a holiday to America, but I want to go anywhere from 0ad - 1300, preferably during the last half of winter.

I would have a horse or something and travel around meeting some of the more substantial Indian tribes, staying with them for a few weeks, depending on how much I'm enjoying myself. I'll start out in North Carolina, and meet up with the Cherokee Indians, hang out in their cave dwellings and explore the Great smokey mountains.

Then I would move South West into Alabama/Mississippi where I would meet the Choctaw Indians before continuing on to Texas which is when I would get to meet the Apache's. I would stay there for a while because they really interest me, along with the land they are settled on (Texas through to Arizona). I would hunt Bison and other game, then learn about their culture by living with them for a while.

Then its straight North along the Utah Colorado boarder into Navajo land where I'll take up growing corn, beans and squash before learning how to heard, kill and prepare sheep, which was a main part of their diet. I really want to camp in or around Monument Valley for a few nights.

After a while I would continue to meet up with the Ute tribe, helping them hunt Beavers and collect wild plants and herbs. I would want to stay in some Anasazi ruins for a night or two as well, before continuing North into Wyoming.

Once in Wyoming it will be hard to tell which tribe I would come into contract with first, but odds are it would either be the Cheyanne or Lakota people, either way I'm gonna be hunting bears and fishing the rivers while growing some more Maize, which is awesome IMO

Once I'm done there its North again into Montana where I'll be finishing my holiday. I'll meet the Crow Indians and live in one of their famously massive tipi's for a while, hunting some Bison to hopefully build one myself, but also getting myself soem tasty mountain sheep to nom on at diner. I'm going to stay in Montana for a few months, as it will be the final state I visit on my trip, but only after I continue forward North to meet the Blackfoot Tribe.

The Blackfoot tribe's which are actually made up of three tribes (Northern Peigan and Kainai Nation of Alberta, Canada and the Blackfeet people of Montana) where I would chill out next to the Montana river, then make my way up to the Rocky Mountains for some hiking and hunting. By the time I get to Montana it should be mid Summer, and that way I can finish my trip by witnessing one of the Blackfoot peoples traditions of a whole nation gathering, in which all 3 tribes would converge on one place and trade/exchange stories as well as just catch up with their buddies and dance/eat/drink the night away. I would eventually leave America and travel back to my own time after staying there for a looooong time, possibly into the winter again so I can see the beauty of the Montana river covered in snow, sitting next to a fire.

I would love to go on this trip not only to meet and learn about Native American's, but also too see the former beauty of America when it was a virgin land, untouched by 'modern' civilization and technology. Anyone interested in coming with is more than welcome, you just need to bring your own clothes (Winter and summer) some food to survive on in between tribe's, a tent and something to sleep on, some weed, lighters and a time machine wouldn't go astray either.

Next holiday I want to go live with the Mayans :awesomenod:

P.S this trip will probably take 10months to a year or more, so be ready for that.
