Near the bottom of the list is "Legends from Rotorua": if you click on this one, you'll access 12 more tales at a site called "Maori Memories, Legend and Folklore." For yet one more additional tale, look near the top of the list for "How the Kiwi Lost His Wings" (a great little tale! to save the trees, which were being killed by bugs, the little kiwi sacrificed his wings in order to remain grounded forever, eating the bugs): if you click on this tale and read to the bottom, its homepage link will give you access to yet one more story, "Te Houtaewa," about a swift running trickster. Note : see under "COMMON THEMES: Earth Goddesses" for direct links to three of Hana Weka's narratives about the Earth-Mother and her offspring; and "COMMON THEMES: Sky Gods" for Hana Weka's re-telling of the "forgotten brother" who stayed with his Sky-God father.

MYTHING LINKS Kathleen Jenks, Ph.D. GEOGRAPHICAL REGIONS: INDIGENOUS PEOPLES Goddesses of Indigenous Peoples: Ptesan-Wi, White Buffalo Woman, Goddess of the Lakota Sandra Stanton (used with permission) Author's Note: 26 October 1998 Once I start more sections, I'll begin splitting this opening page into additional separate files (see below for the "Table of Contents") http://www.nativeweb.org/resources/arts_humanities/ Goddesses of Indigenous Peoples: Oshun, West African Yoruba Goddess of rivers, love, dance Sandra Stanton (used with permission) "Indigenous Peoples" has been the most difficult category to organize. Originally, I tried to keep everything based on geography. Thus, for example, the Maori were a subset under New Zealand. But they were the only subset (the mythology and sacred traditions of white New Zealanders are derived from Europe and I had no reason to give them their own section side by side with the Maori). As such examples grew, I realized that geographical categories were too awkward. So I decided to have a section called "Indigenous Peoples." I am aware that definitions of "indigenous" can be problematic and subject to hostile multi-cultural scrutiny. For the sake of simplicity, by "indigenous," I mean a still-surving people who were the original (or at least among the most ancient) inhabitants of a land before those lands were turned into colonies by peoples of another culture who invariably considered themselves "superior" to the "natives." By "indigenous," I also mean a people who still maintain some contact with their ancient ways, ceremonies, beliefs, arts, ways of healing, birthing, dying. Finally, by "indigenous," I mean a people who have generally been marginalized and oppressed by the newcomers, but who, despite this, sustain a larger visionary sense of their own worth in the web of life.

Names for Indigenous People in The Pacific Names for Indigenous People in The Americas Why did indigenous people in Australia call themselves " Aborigines " or "Koori"? Why do indigenous people in New Zealand call themselves " Maor i "? Background: England and France only colonized the Pacific (including Australia and New Zealand) at the end of the eighteenth century. Previously Spain claimed the Pacific as part of The Indies . Therefore Spanish colonists also called inhabitants of the Pacific " Indians From the 1750s on, Spanish colonizers lost their Pacific colonies (except the Phillipines). Eighteenth- and nineteenth-century French and British colonizers re-christened the natives when they began colonization. Englishmen settling Australia in 1788 called the inhabitants were "aborigine s" deriving from the Latin, meaning "original inhabitants. English colonists also used Latin to characterize the legal status of the country as "terra nullius," literally, the land of no one. Recently Australia's natives have begun preferring to use their own word for person rather than the English term. "Koori" has become common in New South Wales and Victoria, while other terms have become used

Maya of Guatemala Amazon tribes Maori schools Navajo art Saami parliament Like land, knowledge is a resource that Indigenous Peoples have historically valued, but have not necessarily owned. Because international corporations make claims on indigenous lands, however, the question of ownership is very important. The same is true for knowledge. Indigenous Peoples are beginning to claim Intellectual Property Rights to protect themselves from the theft of their knowledge. Overview Focus: Maori Schools Project: Role Play Debate Project: Role Play Debate Points of View There are many different perspectives on the meaning of Indigenous Knowledge. In this activity, you will work with a team to explore these different perspectives and see how they may agree or disagree. Each member of your team should act out a different perspective. Some web resources are listed below to help you create and define your perspective. You can also find your own resources on indigenous knowledge. Finding Your Role Take some time to review the sources below . Make notes about the perspective you will role play, i.e. the point of view you will represent. Think how others might perceive your ideas. Then, prepare a list of key ideas you would like to share with your team.

So alluring are the mysteries of indigenous medical knowledge that over 100 pharmaceutical companies and even the U.S. government are currently funding projects studying the indigenous plant knowledge and the specific plants used by native shamans and healers. Long regarded as hocus-pocus by science, indigenous people's empirical plant knowledge is now thought by many to be the

Correspondence with John Ashworth John Answorth is helping to organize a meeting of Maori people. Here is part of his initial email. ho85@dial.pipex.com Subject: Indigenous science Date: Fri, 30 Apr 1999 11:53:05 +0100 Dear Dr Peat, I have been asked by a Maori elder to see if I could organise a conference in New Zealand which could bring together indigenous people from various countries and also traditional scientists who share the Maori concerns that their land is threatened.The Maori tribes consider themselves Guardians of the planet (as of course do many other peoples). The particular Maori elder to whom I refer is a very influential person in the Maori world and is involved regularly in high level negotiations with the N.Z. government.The elder has lectured on Maori Science in NZ and is working to get NZ traditional scientists to understand the knowledge which Maori people have maintained and developed over many hundreds of years .This includes the traditions of protecting the environment and respecting the use of plants , animals in health, food and farming.One of the objectives of a conference would be to highlight the dangers of losing not only the land but the knowledge maintained over the years. I gather from David Lorimer that you have had a long term interest in this area of indigenous science and I would be very grateful if we could have a brief discussion on this matter. Please could you let me know if this would be possible.
