People today tend to portray them as peace loving, almost Zen buddhist like people, smoking the peace pipe, living off the land, living in perfect harmony, until....the white man, the source of all evil came and destroyed their civilization. I'm no expert on Native American cultures, but isn't it reasonable that they were warlike conquerers too among the various native tribes? After all, there were so many different tribes, didn't the Cherokee ever try to conquer the Sioux, etc. etc.?
