Fur TradeEra

Two food items for both the coastal and

plateau groups

Salmon and whales, buffalo

and deer

It’s why there are more coastal tribes than

plateau tribes

On the coast their food source comes to them; on the plateau they have to

move to find food, so they are more spread out

This is where you are most likely to have the

best luck when salmon fishing as a Native American

Just below a waterfall or

rapids, where fish congregate

It is the main reason for a

potlatch ceremony

Gift-giving; a redistribution of wealth; to show

someone respect by giving them your most

prized possession

These four methods of transportation of

people and goods were the most common by

Native Americans

Walking, horseback, dugout

canoes, travois

These four reasons are why Europeans and Americans explored

the Pacific Northwest

To find the western entrance to the northwest passage, to find gold, to dominate the Native Americans, and to

spread religion

These four nations explored the

Pacific Northwest

Spain, England, Russia, and the United States (remember, we

didn’t own it yet!)

and leader he bought it from, and the reason it was sold for so cheap! Whew! 5 Answers!

Louisiana Purchase; Thomas Jefferson;

France; Napoleon;

He needed money for wars in Europe and had given up hopes

of French settlement there

They are the four goals of the Lewis

and Clark expeditions

Map the Louisiana Purchase, make contact with the Native Americans, record the plants and animals they found, and

find a route to the Pacific

It is two reasons why the Pacific Northwest was

such a great place for the fur trade, besides “there

were a lot of furry animals here”

Rivers provided access to the interior; Native tribes cooperated and

participated in the trade

Name the most important fur pelt,

what it was used for, and three places it

was in high demand

Beaver, made into hats, London,

Paris, Asia

These are four of the fur trading companies that were located in or had bases in the Pacific

Northwest

Pacific Fur Company; Hudson’s Bay Company;

Rocky Mountain Fur Company; North West

Fur Company

It is the most successful trading

post in the northwest, and it’s leader

Fort Vancouver; John McLoughlin

This grizzled mountain man discovered the

source of the Columbia river. Man, were his

arms tired!

David Thompson

have been confused by missionaries

The missionaries taught both Catholic and

Protestant beliefs

It is the name for a native healer and

spiritual guide; the natives often referred

to missionaries as them

Shaman

It’s the name for the native religion, and

the biggest difference between

them and Christians

Animism; They believe that all living things have souls, whereas Christians

They are probably the most important

missionaries in the northwest (also name the tribe that killed them!)

Marcus and Narcissa Whitman;

Cayuse Tribe

It is the name of the people who started a mission in Lapwai, and the name of the

tribe there

Oregon Trail

Start a new life, create utopian societies, cheap

land, leave hardship behind

This group of people had more to do with the establishment of

the Oregon Trail than anyone else

Explorers/ fur traders

These three hazards might

have made your journey difficult

Sickness, starvation, snake bites/animals,

harsh weather, hostile native groups

It’s the name for a mass migration– Moses also had

one…

Exodus

It’s what you carve a canoe out of, and what you carve it

with

Dug out of trees with an adze

This town is at the mouth of the

Columbia River

Astoria, Oregon

This is the name of the meeting place that happened

once a year for mountain men to sell furs and buy

supplies, and they partied it up a bit too

Rendezvous

This Brit was the first Englishman to sail along the

Oregon coastline and the first Brit to circumnavigate

the world. He was also a privateer and pirate in his

day. What a busy guy!

Sir Francis Drake

It’s the name of the blue-flowered root gathered

and eaten by most Plateau tribes– they still gather it

today!

Camas Root

Make your wager

Name the five migration groups that came into the

Pacific Northwest, in order, then argue which had the

greatest impact on the settlement of the area– give

two reasons they they are the most important

Native people, explorers, fur

traders, missionaries,

Oregon Pioneers
