Have you ever tried to cook for yourself,well you probably haven’t but the Paiute people did it all the time.Every meal,every snack.Oh!You think that’s interesting well this is how  they did it.

First, the Paiute would hunt animals with bows,spears,knives and traps.The Paiute hunted animals like Rabbits,Deer,mountain Sheep and bison.while the men where hunting the woman would collect seeds.They would use pine nuts and ground them into flour to make porridge and bake it into cakes.

Second, the Paiute ate vegetables and berries like corn, squash,beans,sunflowers, wheat,berries,nuts,melons,winter wheat and tubers. Third, the woman of the Paiute tribe would weave baskets so well that they could hold the smallest of seeds and water.

I'm going to tell you about  Shoshone traditions/ customs. one tradition is the Bannock  Festival is where young men and women dance With feathers  and necklaces and cook. These are some sad moments that happened. One time at Bear River a lot of soldiers  killed almost all the Shoshone only five survived. 150 Shoshone died and some lessons because the soldiers said to leave because they thought the Shoshone were attacking them but other group or tribe was. by killing most of the Shoshone there  traditions/customs we're forgotten  some of them got forced to  be Christians And that was hard. they called themselves Mimi in their own language wow  that's a weird name but  cool. I'm going to tell you a legend  that the Shoshone told. many years ago when the Earth was still  quiet and two butterflies were fighting something the butterfly husband died then the wife took a wing and went into a cocoon in a nearby tree Once in awhile other animals came to say are you doing okay. 

Hope you like it
