John Anderson’s presentation shares the fascinating story of the Native American Tribes who once claimed part of present-day Colorado as being included in their ancestral homeland. Of the 574 federally recognized Native American tribes in the United States, more than two dozen tribes claim their ancestors once lived in what is today the State of Colorado. The presentation will focus primarily on the Ute, Pueblo, Apache, Comanche, Cheyenne, Arapahoe, and to a lesser extent, the Wyandotte Tribal Nations.The Ute are recognized as indigenous people of Colorado. The Southern Ute and the Ute Mountain Ute are the only two Native American Reservations that remain in the State of Colorado.
This presentation is based in part on research that went into several of John’s books, including Native American Prayer Trees of Colorado and A to Z Colorado’s Nearly Forgotten History 1776-1876. John will have an assortment of his books available for purchase and signing.
