Theory has it that the Amerind planet (as seen in the 'Star Trek' episode
"The Paradise Syndrome" where Kirk became "Kirok") was seeded by "the
Preservers" with Native American tribes. According to Spock's analysis, the
members of Miramanee's tribe were comprised of Mohegan, Delaware, and Navajo, a
curious blend.
But this was just one tribe, and the Amerind people had been on the planet
for millennia. Surely the Preservers took samplings from many other tribes as
well in order to maintain a strong gene pool - the Cherokee, the Pequot, the
Cheyenne, the Sioux....
So why not Arapaho?
And if they did, who's to say the Preservers didn't cull members of the
Arapaho tribe to which Lame Beaver of 'Centennial' belonged? (Albeit from
hundreds, if not thousands, of years in the past.)
So there's a theoretical link between 'Star Trek' and 'Centennial' which
benefits from the inability to counter the claim.....
BCnU!
