The early Indians were just one of the many people who once lived near the seashores or the lakes.
And obviously the canoes were the helpful vessels which they made use of.
The canoes they built were used for fishing, transportation, and war vessels too.
Yes, they also encountered tumultuous situations.
And the Indian war canoes were discovered and built for this purpose.
How the Indian War Canoes Looked Like The very basic concept of a canoe is a small boat which appears sharp at both edges.
Paddles are what make canoes move instead of the oars which other people think of.
Indian war canoes were largely built to accommodate several occupants.
Most of these occupants take with them their paddles so that the boat can move at a fast pace.
The early Indian war canoes were not as intricately styled and designed as compared to what this modernized industry already has.
The traditional Indian war canoes were shaped just like the voyageur canoe which contained a tall and round-shaped bow and a stern too.
These tall ends basically caught the winds easily but then they artistically served the vital purpose of shedding the waves present in the roughest ocean and whitewater trips.
Typically, Indian canoes were asymmetrically shaped in the centerline.
It goes to mean that one can visibly see their actual shapes when they get viewed from the center.
This shape made it easier for the paddlers to handle whether they intended to go backwards or forwards.
The asymmetrical shape makes the canoe easier to maintain in a straight line therefore not slightly sacrificing its maneuverability.
The Indian war canoe was primarily focused on building the cross section of the hull in a refined manner.
Along with the bottom of the hull, the cross section area determined the stability of the canoe no matter what type of weather condition is faced during the course of the travel.
When the hull was flat-bottomed, it may be stable during the first few instances of the travel but when big waves hit it and it got tilted, the most possible scenario was for it to capsize.
This kind was more used in flat waters.
The Indian war canoes with rounded bottoms were more adhered to since they were able to get over several obstructions such as rocks and large waves.
There also came forth the shallow-arched design for the bottom of the hull.
Its shape provided much stability even though it got tilted.
Emily Carr's Role Emily Carr's Indian War Canoe is an oil painting which had been through a lot of criticisms.
Greatly adhering to fauvism, which generally presented a pleasurable, comforting, and joyful subject, this painting tells a story.
This artwork presents the inhumane marginalization suffered by the native Indians in the hands of the Canadian citizens centuries ago.
In the painting is a very big canoe which contains the image of a wolf while two huge sculptures and one totem pole rests in the background as placed in front of the houses therein.
This canoe is among the oldest of the three war canoes which related to the reputed history of the Kwakiutl nation.
All about the Indian War Canoe Trophy There is this so-called War Canoe Trophy which was said to have been originally hand-carved by nonetheless the Seminole Indians.
They got it from the 200-year-old cypress tree which got uprooted by a lightning.
The award has been given to the winners in the college football games played between the rivals University of Miami and University of Florida.
Behind the carved canoe is the symbol of courage and boldness as thoroughly displayed by the players of the Miami Hurricanes and Florida Gators teams.
To date, the War Canoe Trophy rests on display at the sports hall of fame of the University of Miami.
