In one essay on Indians, Benjamin Franklin spoke of how the men when young could do the hunting for example but when older could become counselor's and develop oratory skills as their life style allowed for time for contemplation and the development of wisdom. Also, he spoke of how the government in Virginia offered to pay for the university education of some of the young natives and they replied, after some consideration that those that had engaged in this education in the past became useless in the skills of dealing with nature and daily life with their people living on the land so declined the offer but offered instead to educate some white people in their own valuable life skills of living life like a true native American.
