R. David Edmunds‚ author of the article “Tecumseh‚ The Shawnee Prophet‚ and American History: A Reassessment‚” published in Vol. 14 (pages 261-276)‚ No. 3 by The Western Historical Quarterly in 1983‚ argues that Americans have idolized Tecumseh‚ a Shawnee Indian‚ to an extent where some of “his biographies have presented an Indian of superhuman qualities” (Edmunds 261).

The Shawnee Tribe Did you know that the Shawnee Indian tribe is a fascinating tribe? I recently have learned that they are nomads. Nomads are people who travel instead of settling in one place.

Until around 1660 Iroquois drove out the tribe to southern Carolina‚ Tennessee’s Cumberland basin‚ eastern Pennsylvania‚ and southern Illinois. They had tried to return‚ but again they were forced to leave

If they had stood in his council they would

It is believed that Tecumseh was born in 1768 in central Ohio. He was the second son of a Shawnee warrior who was killed at the Battle of Point Pleasant.

Natural Cycle Prayer is seen in most cultures as a way to connect to a higher being. The “Shawnee Native American Prayer” does not meet the traditional requirements of a prayer. It is not praising or asking for gifts‚ but giving commands only. Tecumseh shapes this prayer as a list of commands on how to live and die with honor.
