| 520 | _a"Indian Games: An Historical Research" by Andrew McFarland Davis is a historical account likely written in the late 19th century. The book delves into the various traditional games played by Native American tribes, exploring the cultural significance, variations, and rules associated with these activities throughout history. It highlights games such as lacrosse and platter, presenting their roles as both recreational activities and elements of spiritual and community life. At the start of the text, the author introduces the significance of traditional games to Native American culture, referencing early European accounts to illustrate their importance. The narrative discusses specific games like lacrosse, describing not only how they were played but also how they were interwoven with rituals, gambling, and social structure. The author notes that although the wording in historical descriptions can be confusing, common threads allowing for the identification of these games have survived. This opening portion sets the stage for a comprehensive examination of Native American games, offering insights into their significance beyond mere entertainment.
