aciipihkahki: iši kati mihtohseeniwiyankwi myaamionki Roots of Place: Experiencing a Miami Landscape

Sutterfield, Joshua A.

Abstract Details

2009, Master of Arts, Miami University, Geography.
This thesis explores an individual interpretation of Miami Ecological Knowledge (MEK), which is a form of Traditional Ecological Knowledge (TEK) specific to the Miami people. Through the research project my own identity and understanding of concepts such as landscape, place, time and nature have evolved into a multifaceted and multicultural interpretative lens. This work combines MEK and ecological science to provide an example of Native American research within an academic setting. The research is guided by the Miami Tribe of Oklahoma’s cultural revitalization effort and is intended as a contribution to that effort. Because this research was directed by the Miami Tribe’s interest in cultural revitalization it contributes to what has been referred to as decolonization.
