3 Multicultural Information: The Muskogees* are a group of Native Americans that are originally from the southeast region of the United States. The explorers called these people "Creeks" because they built their villages near the creeks. They call themselves Muskogee. Their ancestral home is the American southeast but because they were made to leave, today most Creek people live in Oklahoma. The men hunted deer while women knew where to go to gather nuts, wild onions and berries. They tended gardens full of corn, beans and squash and shared food with the village. Corn was important food and women ground it into meal and made "sofkey" a cornmeal dinner. A Usual village had houses with thatched roofs built around the council house and a large field used for sports like stickball played with a ball and stick with a net on the end. The Muskogee has created legends and myths to explain about life and the world around them. One legend they have is to explain why birds fly south for the winter. Traditional Muskogee ceremonies take place at the stomp ground. An important celebration is the Green Corn Festival. At this festival the clans give thanks for the harvest. There are many dances and celebrations. The women wear turtle shells on their ankles and make music as they dance. The Indian Stick Ball Game is played during the last dance of the season or during the stomp ground's winter dance in late September or October when the weather is cool. The game is commonly played on or adjacent to the stomp dance grounds. There are two types of stick ball games. One is the social game played by men and women, and the other is a match game played by two different clans. The match game was played by opposing clans or opposing Stomp Dance groups. Sometimes there were more than 30 men on each side. The field was as large as a football field with goals at the opposite ends. The object of the game was to send the ball between the goals either by throwing it with the sticks or by carrying it in the sticks pocket to score a point, but you could not use your hands. The team with the most points wins. The winner sings a victory song. *also spelled Muscogee
4 NAME THE MUSKOGEE PEOPLE Native Americas are the original people of the Americas. When explorers came to the Americas, they found many different native people living there. They pushed these native people off of their land because they wanted it for themselves. The Muskogees were one of these native people. They are originally from the Southeast area of the United States. Their ancestors built mounds in that area. The explorers called these people "Creeks" because they built their villages near the creeks. The men hunted deer and the women gathered nuts, onions and berries. They had a great garden with corn, beans and squash. They shared food with everyone in the village. Corn was an important food to the Muskogees. Their village had houses with roofs made of straw and bark. There was a main house for the leader and a large field used for sports and dancing. One of the games they played was a game like stickball. It was played with a ball and stick with a net on the end. They would play games for fun and for competition. The Muskogee people tell stories to teach their people lessons. The stories explain why things in the world happen. The Muskogee people love nature and family. They have a very interesting history.
