The jobs they did where very important but usually not talked about. The Native American women usually did all the
stuff with the hides, they scraped out the insides cleaned the fur and then tanned the fur. They also made
sure nothing would hurt the fur or ruin it. They also stretched the hides and made sure they would be really stretched
out. They also did many things through out the house like cleaning and washing cloths. They cooked, smoked and dryed
meat wich was a very boring and nasty job because you had to stand in a smokey room and hang up the meat and
make sure no stuff was on them. They even have to do costuction on the canoes. They are the ones
who usually finish the canoes by gumming and stiching the pieces together. In the end the Indians do more than
they need to around the village.
