This paper reports variations in homicide and suicide rates for the two major Indian populations of North Carolina-the Cherokee and the Lumbee. The socio-cultural variations among counties housing the Cherokee population are discussed as well as variations within the Cherokee population itself. In addition, socio-cultural profiles of the Lumbee counties and Lumbee Indian groups are analyzed. Both social structural and cultural explanations of violent behavior are examined. On the basis of these analyses, the authors conclude that differences in cultural patterns between the Cherokee and Lumbee most adequately account for the extent and direction of individual forms of violence. There are two Indian populations in North Carolina, the Eastern Cherokee and the Lumbee. While they both identify themselves as Indians and are both in the southeastern cultural area, they appear to be dissimilar on a number of characteristics. An important difference is found in the homicide and suicide rates for the two groups
