Seven sets of intercultural authors present Native American oral texts with commentary, exploring dimensions of perspective, discovery, and meaning that emerge through collaborative translation and interpretation. The texts studied all come from the American West but include a rich variety of material, since their tribal sources range from the Yupik in the Arctic to the Yaqui in the Sonoran Desert.

Extractions: Native American textiles and garments from the Northwest Coast The rich wrap themselves up sometimes in white blankets, manufactured in the country, from the wool of the wild sheep, which b as soft and fine as the Spanish merino. These blankets are embroidered with square fringes, and figures with Mack and yellow tassels. Some of them are so curiously worked on one side with the fur of the sea otter, that they appear as if lined by it, and are very handsome. [1] American Indian art of the Pacific Northwest Coast is renowned for the distinctive designs used to decorate a variety of mediums. It is a formal design system developed over the centuries, and although there are stylistic variations from one cultural group to another, there are also many shared characteristics. Among the constants are the use of U-shaped elements and ovoid forms as the basic design units, and the use of black to outline and define the major aspects of a design. Another feature in common, especially on two-dimensional objects, is the splitting of images into two halves so that the whole is bilaterally symmetrical. It is quite common for the design to completely fill the field, this being accomplished either by manipulating existing elements or adding filler motifs.
