Native American Curses: Fact or Fiction?

By admin

Native American curses refer to supernatural and negative spells or hexes placed upon individuals, communities, or objects by indigenous tribes in North America. These curses were believed to have the power to bring harm, misfortune, or even death to the cursed person or object. Native American tribes considered curses as a way to invoke justice and punish those who had committed grave offenses or crimes against their communities. Curses were often intended to ensure that the wrongdoer would face the consequences of their actions, and they were seen as a means of restoring balance and harmony within tribal life. The methods to cast curses varied across tribes, with each having their unique rituals and practices. Some curses were spoken aloud with specific words and phrases, while others involved the use of symbolic objects, such as animal parts, herbs, or ceremonial artifacts.


I just undid three edits by Temple-Zero for reasons adequately explained in the previous great debate. Replacing a sourced statement with personal opinion is not acceptable and nobody even argued so during that previous discussion. An edit summary including "I'd rather have teeth pulled than quote Trials of St. Alessia" makes it clear that this is personal opinion. If you have a source for your information, please quote it. Otherwise, leave the existing text in place. –Rpeh •T•C•E• 14:32, 30 December 2008 (EST)

Secondly, it is possible that Akatosh is the one who imbued the gem with his divine powers but it was Shezzar who bound Alessia s soul into the gem making her the first soul to become the gem metaphorically, since the gem was empty before receiving her soul. Lore in past has told us that the Amulet of Kings came from Akatosh and was given to Alesia as a blessing of dragon blood for queen Alesia s blood line.

Some curses were spoken aloud with specific words and phrases, while others involved the use of symbolic objects, such as animal parts, herbs, or ceremonial artifacts. Some tribes also called upon spirit guides or deities to aid in the casting of curses. The effects of Native American curses were believed to be powerful and long-lasting.

What happens if a Non-Dragonborn wears the Amulet of Kings?

When I heard of the Amulet of Kings in Oblivion, I wanted to learn more about it. I found out only the one with the dragon blood, also known as the Dragonborn, can wear it as Baurus said just after Emperor Uriel Septim VII was killed by the Mythic Dawn. I wondered if I could equip the amulet. I did, and it says it slips off your neck. But if I, or any other non-Dragonborn, were able to wear it, what else will happen? Would it give you a curse? Would you have power, or not? I want to know what happens if someone who has no dragon blood were to wear the Amulet of Kings.

elderscrolls.wikia.com/wiki/Amulet_of_Kings seems to indicate quite clearly that non-dragonborn cannot wear it

Those cursed often experienced a string of bad luck, illness, or even death. Furthermore, curses could affect not only individuals but also entire families or communities. It was believed that the curse would persist until proper restitution or redemption was made. Native American curses were taken seriously within tribal communities, and often steps were taken to break or counteract the curse. Tribal medicine men or spiritual leaders would perform rituals or ceremonies to remove the curse's effects. These rituals involved cleansing, prayer, and offerings to appease spirits or deities. While the belief in Native American curses may have diminished over time, they remain an integral part of many indigenous cultures and traditions. Today, these curses are often viewed as folklore or legends, but their significance in Native American history and culture cannot be denied..
