There are many "medicine" traditions concerning death, and numerous interpretations of those traditions.

Some say a widow must wait four years to remarry.

Some traditional burials leave the deceased's body on an open platform, surrounded by favorite possessions, exposed to the wilderness elements for disposal.

Navajo, also spelled Navaho, second most populous of all Native American peoples in the United States, with some 300,000 individuals in the early 21st century, most of them living in New Mexico, Arizona, and Utah.

The Navajo speak an Apachean language which is classified in the Athabaskan language family. At some point in prehistory the Navajo and Apache migrated to the Southwest from Canada, where most other Athabaskan-speaking peoples still live; although the exact timing of the relocation is unknown, it is thought to have been between 1100 and 1500 CE. These early Navajo were mobile hunters and gatherers; after moving to the Southwest, however, they adopted many of the practices of the sedentary, farming Pueblo Indians near whom they settled.

Traditional Navajo women’s clothing includes a pleated velvet, or cotton skirt (tl’aakal) with a matching long-sleeve velvet blouse (deiji’éé’), a shawl, foot or knee-high deer moccasins (kełchí), Navajo jewelry and a silver concho or sash belt. Men’s traditional dress consists of a velvet or cotton shirt, white pants and silver or turquoise (dootl’izhii) jewelry, short deer moccasins and a headband. Both genders wear their long hair in a tsiiyéél – a traditional type of hairstyle that is brushed with a be’ezo, a long dried stiff grass brush, into a bun behind the head and tied with a white sheep wool string.

The Navajo are known for their woven rugs and blankets. They first learned to weave cotton from the Pueblo peoples.

The principal food is mutton, boiled, and corn prepared in many ways. Considerable flour obtained from traders is consumed; this is leavened slightly and made into small cakes, which are cooked over the embers like Mexican tortillas.

The standard diet, established in tribal habits at Bosque Redondo (which was in effect a military boarding school for the “Americanization” of the Navajo), consists of mutton, fried bread, vast quantities of coffee with sugar and goat milk.

The Iroquois lived near Lake Ontario and along the Mohawk River in New York state around 1600. Five tribes came together to form a confederation, these were: The Mohawks, the Oneidas, the Onondagas, the Cayugas and the Senecas. The confederation called themselves "Haudenosaunee" which means "people of the long house". The name "Iroquois" was given by the French, it means "snake". Although there were other tribes that spoke the same language, they were not part of the confederation. Like the native Erie, who were related to the Iroquois, they were nevertheless considered enemies and annihilated by the Iroquois. In 1650 the Iroquois began to cover more and more terrain, going from the Ohio country to the great lakes and rivers of Ohio. They conquered and expelled various Native American groups. The wars that occurred were called the Beaver Wars, from 1650 to 1700 AD. This to be able to hunt even more.
