      I imagine it was a frontier skill that was necessary to know
      I cast balls for my Muzzle loaders as well as bullets for various rifle and pistol cartridges. Really not much to it and if you get a bad one it just gets tossed back in the pot to be melted

    "It seems to be deeply embedded in human nature not to heed warnings!"
    I am a lifelong student of the study & observation of human nature. This statement rings true. People have a tendency to downplay danger signs while at the same time having the propensity to engage in irrational exuberance over a lottery ticket. Point being, most people, let's say 80%, are hard pressed to deal with reality & what is. Most folks squander their lives by making choices based on misinformation, delusions, & the exception instead of the rule. We have rules to help us establish boundaries. But most people like to throw caution to the wind in the belief they will be the exception. And when life knocks them down they either act surprised, or blame the misfortune on external factors or other people. Meanwhile, the 20% carry on and prosper.

      I have Fila Brasileiros, very large and very aggressive dogs from South America. The only dog breed today that was originally developed to hunt people, they were used to hunt slaves and Indians. Look sort of like a cross between a mastiff and a blood hound
      Being aggressive toward strangers and loyal and protective of their owners are characteristics that are bred into them. Very intelligent dogs as well. I’ve trained them to voice, hand and whistle commands

    The natives of north America brought about their fate in histpry through their savagery and merciless brutality. In centeal and south America, the conquistadors found the natives there engaged in mass human sacrifice to animal gods. Is it really so surprising that they were deemed to be subhuman?

    "A harmless man is not a good man. A good man is a very dangerous man who has it under voluntary control!" - Jordan Peterson
    I had only one main desire as a young boy; to grow up to be a sailor & soldier. I have always held the conviction that males have a moral duty, before God & the laws of nature, to develop their fighting abilities. Males have a duty to lead, protect & provide for the weaker sex & children. As a Texan I have spent my 55 years observing how most males fail miserably in both being guided by their fathers as well as developing their own ability to lead, protect & provide for those who are more limited in their abilities to protect & provide for themselves. A shame.

    How are you doing sir thank you for your wonderful cultural documentary channel. When were kids we watched cartoon of native Americans. We called them in Arabic red indians their costumes , painted faces , special tents . But I can’t imagine till I read right now how cruel they are . I looked up for definition of scalping is part of human trophy taking which involves claiming human body parts as war trophy . Scalping established Iroquois, allied to British during American Revolution practiced scalping. Most famous case was that of Jane mccrea whose fiancé was loyalist officer . I gathered key points about topic you mentioned briefly here it’s fort Sinquefield, named in honor of settler whose home it’s stood near . Was one of several hostility built constructed in south west Alabama in 1813 at outbreak of creek war . Located in central county .

      Yes and no, there's evidence that scalping goes as early as 600 ad, there's evidence of it occurring in Sweden. However indigenous people were already scalping their enemies before the white man arrived, because they thought it gave them the strength and power of the enemies body.
      English colonists greatly expanded the scalping by placing bounties on the scalps. The first known colonial scalping order is from 1675.
