No, you misunderstood (actually as I was re-editing the file a '(' got
dropped which might have led to this confusion). I started to name them
after NA tribes, but as I ran out of names, I turned to other tribal
types
and ancient cultures (thus it *should* read "Native American tribes,
other
(examples here)". Otherwise 'Aztec' wouldn't fit very well, either.

By Native American I mean to include all of North America, not just
the States.  :-)
