Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Delaware Indian Medicine Practice and Folk Beliefs In connection with such studies I have in mind also the collections of unpublished herbal and charm cures Obtained from Various remnants Of Algonkian peoples on the Atlantic seaboard by Dr. Speck (powhatan Dr. Hallowell (st. Francis Abenaki and myself (1928; Gayhead and Mashpee Indian The material from these variousgroups although possessing its own ethnic individuality, still overlaps in certain respects. And Where the practices and beliefs of many tribes reveal similarity to the folk remedies of Europeans in the New World, the problem Of interpretation Of properties is made extremely compli cated. Realizing that many of the plants and weeds are migrants from Europe to the New World, we shall have to proceed with caution in View of the fact that the Indians had an ample native pharmacology Of their own before the period Of conquest, and that an experimental spirit was always and everywhere active in revealing new cures among the invading plant hosts. It will, therefore, not be an easy task to dis tinguish between what is Indian and what is European, until we can assign the concepts and practices to one or the other. N 0 one, I believe, would deny that there has been much borrowing, as it is called, on the part of the Colonial whites from the Indians as a glance at the voluminous contents Of the United States Dispensary (1926) will reveal. In the north this process was initiated by the French who accompanied Cartier (1906, pp. 73, 77) and who would have perished from scurvy, had it not been for the therapeutic knowl edge of those Algonquin or Montagnais who supplied them with an effective medicine concocted of white cedar bark. Subsequent to this reference in the early documents many others are encountered indicat ing a deep-rooted system Of primitive medicine which was, as it should be, partly pharmacological and partly psychological.

Download or read book Our Hidden Landscapes written by Lucianne Lavin and published by University of Arizona Press. This book was released on 2023-10-31 with total page 458 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Challenging traditional and long-standing understandings, this volume provides an important new lens for interpreting stone structures that had previously been attributed to settler colonialism. Instead, the contributors to this volume argue that these locations are sacred Indigenous sites. This volume introduces readers to eastern North America’s Indigenous ceremonial stone landscapes (CSLs)—sacred sites whose principal identifying characteristics are built stone structures that cluster within specific physical landscapes. Our Hidden Landscapes presents these often unrecognized sites as significant cultural landscapes in need of protection and preservation. In this book, Native American authors provide perspectives on the cultural meaning and significance of CSLs and their characteristics, while professional archaeologists and anthropologists provide a variety of approaches for better understanding, protecting, and preserving them. The chapters present overwhelming evidence in the form of oral tradition, historic documentation, ethnographies, and archaeological research that these important sites created and used by Indigenous peoples are deserving of protection. This work enables archaeologists, historians, conservationists, foresters, and members of the general public to recognize these important ritual sites.

Download or read book The Indians of New Jersey written by Mark Raymond Harrington and published by Rutgers University Press. This book was released on 1963 with total page 372 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here is a story of the Lenape Indians who lived in what is now New Jersey and eastern Pennsylvania. It describes their culture, crafts, and language as no other book has done. Hunters, fishers, artisans of flint and skins and basketry, tellers of traditional tales, dwellers in a region of hills and barrens, of rivers and forests, they had developed a way of life adjusted to the world around them. In presenting the lore and heritage of the Lenapes, Dr. M.R. Harrington does so through the eyes of a shipwrecked English boy who became a captive of the Indians, and was eventually adopted into the tribe. The narrative is lively reading, and the facts on which it is based are accurate. With the accompanying Clarence Ellsworth line drawings, the reader can understand and even reproduce many of the objects the author describes: the Lenape bows and arrows, muccasins and mats, baskets and bowls. This new edition is a reissue of an often asked for an unavailable New Jersey classic, first published in 1938.
