Indigenous people of North America have been subject to many interactions with others. Sometimes these interactions caused loss and were detrimental to the survival of Indigenous ways of life. Rising from these interactions, the Indigenous people used what they learned and the artifacts they confiscated to create items of resilience and survival—adapting weapons and tools of the settlers/military to create items such as clubs, cutting utensils, and regalia for celebrations. Since different tribal nations resided in different homelands, the timeline of these interactions and the nature of the visitors created a difference in style which helps to identify the nation from which the regalia and tools came.
