Produktbeschreibung
Excerpt from Indian Notes and Monographs: A Series of Publications Relating to the American Aborigines; How the Makah Obtained Possession of Cape Flattery At this time the Makahs heard about this man that got the strength (the Makahs were from Waatcht, Sooes, and Ozette), so they came over here to have a hair-pulling contest. One of the Makahs challenged the man that had the strength, but of the refused: he wanted to try with one of the slaves. So the Nitinat let him and the Makah (slave) come out; he belonged to one of the chieftains of the Makahs. So they had the hair-pulling contest and in the contest the Makah got his neck [head] twisted right off, which killed him. After this time, five girls went across from Ozette village to Ozette island. They were going out picking licorice-roots, and when they were going home from the island, a storm came up and these girls drifted on to Tatoosh island and there became slaves to the Nitinats. Then the Makah tribe found out that they were drifted to Tatoosh island that they were drifted to Tatoosh island and asked to buy these girls form them; they bought back four, missing one.
