APACHES AND CHEYENNES
Nowadays, the human being exists thanks to ancient native tribes in all countries. We remember these tribes because they left us their cultures or traditions for we could survive. Two of the most relevant civilizations of North America were the Cheyennes and the Apaches because their culture and traditions were a support in order to understand the present. Both shared their remarkable event, the ambush by the enemy army of each tribe. Moreover, although the Cheyennes and the Apaches tribes lived in the different states, they had more similarities than differences.
Although, there had been a substantial amount of convergence between the Cheyennes and the Apaches, they were great warriors, and their heroes were killed in an ambush by enemy armies. In spite of this fact their legacies continue to exist currently. Moreover, these events were transcendental because they changed the order of civilizations and it affected the hierarchical organization of the tribes
Nevertheless, these tribes kept some differences regarding the heroes. The name of each hero is in the Apaches Geronimo, and in the Cheyennes is Roman Nose. Another difference is that when these heroes died the Apaches were located in New Mexico, but the Cheyennes were located between Minnesota and Missouri river. This is the most important event because the hero was the leader in each tribe. At the moment of the ambush, the Cheyennes were migrating to another state; on contrary the Apaches were not migrating, they stayed in their place.
In summary, these cultures had heroes who were natural warrior that offered their life in order to respect and maintain their land, customs and traditions. Therefore, these tribes were the most relevant in North America and they deserve to be reminded by people of these times.
