The Cherokee tribe is known as one of the earliest and largest Indian tribe in North America. They are federally recognized even today among several states(museum). While they slowly became Americanized by the Europeans who came over to America, some still practice their typical Indian rituals publicly today.

1)Paleo-Indians, the first Americans lived in bands of fifteen to fifty people, and traveled within their territory to hunt. Archaic Indians experienced a warming climate. One of the results of the warming climate was better hunting. Forest grew larger with a greater variety of plants and animals. The changes allowed some Indians to reside in permanent homes. The ample supply of food allowed more peoples to live on less acreage. The weather also allowed for specialization of caring for plants; this was the beginning of controlling crops to better supply the people.

When first considering the Navajo-Hopi land dispute as a topic of research, I anticipated a relatively light research paper discussing the local skirmishes between the two tribes. However, my research has yielded innumerable volumes of facts, figures and varying viewpoints on a struggle that has dominated the two tribes for over 100 years. The story is an ever-changing one, evolving from local conflict to forcible relocation to big business interests. The incredible breadth of the dispute's history makes it impossible to objectively cover the entire progression from all viewpoints. I will therefore focus on current issues - and their historical causes - facing the two tribes as they mutually approach

When settlers first came in from Europe, there was no conflict. The Cherokee allowed interactions with the new inhabitants through simple trading, deerskin for household goods. Their tools, like guns, opened up life with better efficiency for hunting than bows and arrows. This trading built the base for their trust and respect for one another. The Cherokee began assisting the Whites with their transition to the new lands, consistently providing resources that were valuable to their own people. For a while, the Cherokee and Americans had a strong alliance, giving recognition to each other’s culture.

Furthermore, these two constitutional clauses in addition to the commerce clause, dictate the court that the matter needs to be brought to.
