Like prayers around the world, their words or thoughts were and are private and in most cases unrecorded.
Only in the few cases where a native American has dictated his life story to a white writer is there any record of such personal moments. One example is the Crow warrior and minor war chief Two Leggings, who told his life history to William Wildschut of the Museum of the American Indian, Heye Foundation.
In one passage Two Leggings was undergoing the Crow Sun Dance and he prayed to "The Great Above Person and the Without Fires" (the Great Spirit and the animal, natural and celestial spirits) to pity him, give him bravery and success in battle, as well as long life and health. Such wishes are common to people everywhere.
Later Two Leggings prayed to The Great Above Person for help in the things he would try to do, that he would meet the enemy and have good luck.
In another passage he held a sacred pipe in his hand and prayed that all his future trails would be successful.
Native American Indian beliefs vary as much as an Irishman's to an Italian's, or an Englishman to a Russian. Native Americans are affiliated with many, many different tribes with histories and cultures that differ accordingly. Some general beliefs are that this is the Creator's world for us to honor, cherish and respect. This includes our earth mother, the four legged creatures , the sacred directions, the plants etc that He gives to us as his children.The native Americans believe in their religion and their culture.

I would say no cuz of the things of the beliefs and tales i heard...... That the killing of Native Americans was NOT a inquision
Some sources say yes, and some sources say no. I say yes because first of all, they are native, and second of all, they lived like other natives, and lastly, I think they would want to be considered native Americans
I would say, the first natives to be the Anasazi, and the first whites to be.. The spanish. I am a native american, I should know :)

Hispanic's ( Mexicans, Panamanians, ect. ) originated from Native Americans who moved/ forced out to latin countries. So, Hispanics's are Native Americans. And yes some Native Americans are Latino.AnswerIt would be more correct to say that some native Americans are latinos. Latino implies spanish descent, which by definition means non-American descent, since latin was originally a European language and culture.
Alaska was not allowed to claim lands held by Native Americans.
