Scottish and Native American pictures

[cryerelizabeth]

I think this might be the right place to post this. Does anyone know of any pictures of Native Americans sharing in Scottish culture and customs (and vise versa). Since writing a paper about Scottish settlement in Georgia I've been curious about this topic.

Hawk's avatar is probably the picture best known outside the USA, but for finer tuning from an historic perspective, you might want to PM our 'captive' historian, Cajunscot. Look him up, he has a vast fund of knowledge on the connections between Scotland's immigrants to your country and your country's aboriginal people.

The Hudson Bay has several lithographs of the Scots working in Rupert's land with the Cree and Innu.

I have a Great-grandmother who was Ojibway/Cree and Scottish mix, her father was a Hudson's Bay Company factor who was a highlander. The HBC actually encouraged the employees to take First Nation's wives, strengthened trading ties as well as kept them from leaving the company.
