_The Animals Came Dancing_ Native American and European Rationalizations for Killing Wildlife Do the Animals Really Care?! Michael J. Vandeman, Ph.D. mjvande@pacbell.net http://home.pacbell.net/mjvande January 10, 2003 The Animals Came Dancing , Howard Harrod surveyed Native American mythology regarding the relationship between animals and humans. It is usually asserted that native peoples and modern societies are worlds apart, and Harrod seems to take that view. Come on ! If we are really as similar to animals as we believe (and can now prove scientifically), then they must also be like us in not wanting to die! And in not wanting to donate their bodies to other organisms as food! Surely, people so close to nature as they should be able to see the raw fear in the animals' eyes, and translate their cries into an awareness of pain! we cannot justify it through any rational argument ! Our "instincts" (i.e., genes) impel us to eat, and therefore to kill, but every organism that we contemplate killing is a relative of ours (we are 98.6% genetically identical to a chimpanzee, but also some 30% identical to a fungus)! And besides, it has its own plans, desires, and goals for its life, none of which include being eaten by us! (I think that humans are, by far, the greatest rationalizers in the world!)

ACTIVITIES Native American Bestiary Ancient Art Forms Ancient Art Styles Here Comes the Sun Petroglyphs and Pictographs ... Using Databases A Native American Bestiary Objective: Use prehistoric rock art to explore ancient Native American beliefs systems. Background: Many Native American groups believe that community well being in This World depends on maintaining a balance between the creative forces of the Upper World and the destructive forces of the Under World. This balance is often symbolized by images of animals with unusual characteristics, such as snakes with wings or panther heads. Can you find examples of these "mythological" animal figures in rock art? Activity: Search the database (using the Search screen) by selecting Rock Art Category = Prehistoric Native American and General Motif = Zoomorph. Examine the images you retrieve and see how many "mythological" animal figures you can identify. What species are represented? What realms of the cosmos do these figures represent? Additional exercise: Go to the library and find a book on Native American mythology (see bibliography section for suggested references). Can you find any myths that involve the species represented in your rock art selection? What roles and accomplishments are associated with those mythic animals? What connections can you draw between the rock art and the myths?

The Owl and The Bluejays Charles Krafft While hitchhiking to Seattle, two Indians gave me a ride from La Conner to Mt. Vernon in a pickup truck. On the way I told them I was an artist, and showed them a folio of bird drawings I had with me. The Indians looked at them with some interest, then the one driving asked me to draw a picture of a Bluejay for him. He told me that the Bluejay was the only bird that will help another bird of a species different than its own. I asked the Indian how they did this. He said that the Bluejays will always surround a hungry bird, even an Eagle, and feed it. I said I would give him a picture of a Bluejay the next time I saw him. Then the Indian sitting next to me who had been silent, turned and said, "I can hear the Bluejays talk." I asked him what they said. He replied, "Right now they are talking to an Owl they've got riding between them in a truck." Go to some poems by Charles Krafft Go Up Subscribe Go Home ... Go to the most recent RALPH

59. Lepidoptera In The Mythology Of Native Americans Cultural Entomology Digest 4 Cultural Entomology exposes how insects play a major role in almost every aspect of human culture. Discover just how long insects have influenced the humanities. these insects frequently are found in native american myths. In an early article, Grinnell (5 of Lepidoptera in the mythology of native americans exist beyond those documented http://www.insects.org/ced4/mythology.html

by Ron Cherry E.R.E.C., ( bibliography P.O. Box 8003 Belle Glade, FL 33430 USA. Butterly Kachina Blackfoot Symbol Awatobi Symbol Hopi Buterfly Dance Because of the beauty, power of flight, and complete metamorphosis found in butterflies an moths, these insects frequently are found in Native American myths. In an early article, Grinnell ( ) called attention to the belief held by the Blackfeet that dreams are brought to us in sleep by a butterfly. Their sign for a butterfly was a design roughly in the shape of a maltese cross with one arm horizontal and the other verticle. This sign was painted on a lodge to indicate that the style and method of painting the lodge were taught to the lodge owner in a dream. It was also the custom for a Blackfoot woman to embroider the sign of a butterfly on a small peice of buckskin and tie this in her baby's hair when she wishes it to go to sleep. At the same time, she sings to the child a lulaby in which the butterfly is asked to come flying about and put the child to sleep. Grinnell did not learn why or how the butterfly bring sleep and dreams. However, he did note that the Blackfeet stated that the butterfly is soft and pretty and moves gently and that if you look at it for a long time you will go to sleep. The butterfly was also a prominent figure in the myth and ritual of the Hopi. This insect occurs frequently on prehistoric pottery, in a ritual "

60. Native American Spirituality Essay about landbased spirituality, creation mythology and immanence. http://www.greenspirit.org.uk/resources/NatAmerSpirit.htm

TOPIC: Native American Spirituality Editor Donna Ladkin The papers relating to this topic are: Carol Lee Sanchez. Animal, Vegetable, and Mineral. Jack D. Forbes. Indigenous Americans: Spirituality and Ecos Introduction to the Topic There were over one thousand different tribal peoples indigenous to the North American continent when Europeans first arrived in that territory. Each tribe had its own set of festivals, rituals, and spiritual beliefs, therefore to write of 'Native American spirituality' as one entity would be erroneous. However, common features are apparent across tribal peoples, pointing to some of the assumptions which inform the spiritual beliefs and practices of those indigenous to the North American continent . Spirituality played a central role in the lives of many of these peoples, for as Angie Debo writes: he [the Indian] was deeply religious. The familiar shapes of earth, the changing sky, the wild animals he knew, were joined with his own spirit in mystical communion. The powers of nature, the personal quest of the soul, the acts of daily life, the solidarity of the tribeall were religious, and were sustained by dance and ritual. This piece attempts to highlight some of the key aspects which Native American peoples share in terms of their spirituality. There is much that has been written in this area, and the brief list of suggested books I offer may provide a starting point for those wishing to pursue this area further.
