Description:	The recovery and recounting of the visceral practices of our ancestors and my native relations on Turtle Island [North America] can inspire the same apprehension invoked among the waves of European immigrants, who often came here to escape the oppressive tactics of their own relations back home. The cultural constructs of indigenous peoples arise naturally out of an understanding that we share our environment with all things. Our bodies are no different than other bodies. This contrasts with other spiritual doctrines which hold the human body sacred. The evidence and scope of the excellent archaeological research reported in these papers could serve to reinforce this chasm unless we can find the larger context which reconciles them
