Okichitaw? Native American Martial Art

I contend that the NA culture wasnt one to "systematize" a martial art. People are assigining oriental MA characteristics to an entirely different culture.

Probably, but that doesn't discount the option that something may be innovated. I look at a lot of FMA and the roots of many of the arts I've practiced were totally tribal/parochial, but somebody stepped up and made a curriculum that someone else could teach.

It's not out of the realm of possibility that NAMA could do the same.

Check this out...

This is Mau Rakau from New Zealand, this is the benchmark in which I would consider a NAMA to measure.
