Siubhail air ais ann an tìm cuide ri Calum, Kerry Anne agus na Sealgairean Spòrsail is ionnsaigh mu eachdraidh agus cultar nan Tùsanach Ameireaganach.

Join Calum Macdonald, Kerry Anne Macleod and the History Hunters as they find out about Native American history and culture. Today the History Hunters learn about hundreds of tribes with names like Sioux, Apache and Cherokee who hunted bison, built tents called tipis and used totem poles to tell stories. Inspired by what they hear, the Hunters use poles and a sheet to create their own tipi in the back garden, and make a modern day version of a totem pole to reflect stories from their family.

Back in the studio, Calum and Kerry Anne look at some of the sign language that Native Americans used to communicate with people from tribes who spoke different languages.
