Because of the local focus of these traditions, each brings the unique experience and knowledge of that group of people. The nomadic practices of many of groups means no buildings and few artifacts can be used to study the past. This page will include only information that is deemed to be public knowledge.

http://members.aol.com/porchthree/nativeam.htm - Native Americans Interfaith Religion and Beliefs for an Internet Generation PORCH NUS The E-Zine of The Front Porch Religions of the World Native American Spirituality Native American Spirituality might be defined as the indigenous religious traditions of the many peoples who inhabited the Americas prior to contact with Europeans from 1492 onward. The customs, rituals and iconography varied tremendously throughout the Americas. Attempting to compare them with the formalized written traditions of Asia, Europe and the Middle East is an exercise in futility. Native American Spirituality was (and is, for those still practicing it) part and parcel of living. It involved a relationship with the natural world as opposed to a weekly or daily schedule of worship services. With few exceptions there was no priesthood or system of temples. Above all, there was no written record and, but for a very few cases, no inscriptions or monuments. Foreword to Soul of the Indian © 1911 by Charles Alexander Eastman Full Electronic Text at University of Virginia "WE also have a religion which was given to our forefathers, and has been handed down to us their children. It teaches us to be thankful, to be united, and to love one another! We never quarrel about religion."

Critical Issues in the Study of Native American Religions REL 691, Fall 2000 M 8:30-11, 504 Hall of Languages Philip P. Arnold Department of Religion, 501 Hall of Languages 315-443-3861/pparnold@syr.edu Introduction This is a seminar on methods which are currently be used in the study of Native American Religions. Thus, while we are reading about issues particular to Native American traditions, the methodologies explored will be useful for work in other religions, and particularly for indigenous traditions of other continents. As someone recently commented to me, the state of the field of Native American religions "sucks." From my point of view it is certainly in disarray. This is largely because there are a number of deeply important issues embedded in these traditions and generally Native and non-Native, scholars and students alike have profoundly held commitments to these traditions. In other words, an examination of the "study of" these traditions has some religious features itself which need to be unpacked and utilized for the field to move. In Native American religions, as well as in other academic fields, we are in the ironic position of being involved with an area of study with extremely exciting and urgent issues which are also intensely political and often quite scary.

29. Ronald L. Grimes, Teaching Native American Religions Teaching native american religions. During the summer of 1993 I initiateda discussion on the teaching of native american religions. http://www.hartford-hwp.com/archives/41/015.html

Documents menu File: RELIGION TEACH Last update: 29 January 1995 Author: Ronald L. Grimes (rgrimes@mach1.wlu.ca) Teaching Native American Religions By Ronald L. Grimes, [29 January 1995] I am submitting this query to invite reflection on three questions: Should or should not European Americans be teaching courses on Native American religions? If we should not, why not, and what would be the results of our deferral? If we should, how best can we proceed? I am giving much thought these days to the question of cultural imperialism, especially its religious and academic forms. While on leave, I have been asked by the Department of Religious Studies at the University of Colorado, Boulder, to teach a very large, publicly visible introductory course on Native American religions. Vine Deloria teaches here. So does Sam Gill. So does Ward Churchill. So does Deward Walker. Until recently, so did David Carrasco. This is an sizeable concentration of authorities, of various sorts, on indigenous cultures, politics, law, and religions. Ordinarily, I teach courses on indigenous religions at Wilfrid Laurier, a small Canadian university where I do what I do in relative obscurity, at considerable distance from indigenous populations of the American Southwest, where I do most of my fieldwork, and at a remove from high-profile scholars whose names are regularly associated with Native American studies. Currently, this campus is the locus of a highly charged stand-off that no one talks much Sabout in public. In part, the issue has to do with academic, religious, and cultural turf. Often it does not have to do with who is right or wrong on a given issue, but with who ought to be speaking about such issues. Anyone who has read Churchill's critique (in Fantasies of the Master Race) of Gill's Mother Earth or heard Deloria's public but unpublished reflections on that book knows there are good reasons for Euroamerican scholars not to rush in, fools, where angels fear to tread.

Index Shades Pre Columbian Religions Native Americans Maps ... Guestbook I. Introduction Native American Religions, beliefs, behaviors, and attitudes of the indigenous peoples of North America concerning the spiritual forces of the cosmos. These beliefs, behaviors, and attitudes remained an integral part of aboriginal North American culture from the Stone Age (30,000 BC-2500 BC) through the end of the 19th century, when the European settlement of North America was completed. Beginning in the mid-20th century, Native American religions underwent a revival, particularly among the Plains peoples. (For additional information on Native American cultures, see Native Americans II. Origins and Development In the 16th and 17th centuries, when the first European explorers and missionaries began to document the religious patterns of indigenous North America, they were confronted with cultures that had remained unaffected by developments in the civilizations of Europe and Asia. In particular, certain archaic religious characteristics were prevalent among the peoples of North America—namely, a preoccupation with the cycles of nature; a belief in the animate quality of all beings; the use of various techniques believed to control cosmic powers for personal and communal benefit; an emphasis on kinship as the metaphor for religious relations; a reliance on

Index Shades Pre Columbian Religions Native Americans Maps ... Guestbook IV. After European Contact With the coming of Europeans to North America, Native Americans experienced a series of dislocations from which they are still struggling to recover. Foreign invaders overran their territories and claimed sovereignty over their communities, diseases ravaged their populations, and their environments were drastically altered. In many cases, Native Americans were forcibly removed from their aboriginal homelands and livelihoods, with the result that indigenous cultures underwent rapid change. In the midst of these crises, as Native Americans turned to their own religious traditions to understand and ease their plight, missionaries attempted to convert them from their traditional religions to Christianity.

AUTOCHTHONOUS RELIGIONS RELIGIONS OF AFRICA In Africa, peoples have been as diverse as the geography, ranging from isolated tribal groups (hunting and gathering groups through subsistence agricultural groups) to city states. Egypt produced the earliest documented religion with written records, a religion with a highly developed system of beliefs and rituals. African religions have evolved independently from roots remote in time. Eastern Africa furnishes some of the oldest evidence of humanoid habitation. Homo erectus was found in Tanzania (lived 1.5 million years ago). Skulls of Homo sapiens from 130,000 ago have been found in Ethiopia. From the last 20,000 years, remains have been found in caves, savannas, sand dunes and lake beds. Peoples are as diverse as the geography. Racial types include Pygmoid, Bushmanoid, Negroid and Caucasoid. There are more than 1000 distinct languages. Many African-Americans are descendants of peoples taken from the west coast. The High God Peoples of Africa are not only animists, thinking all things contain spirits, or polytheists, believing that many gods exist, but frequently believe that one transcendent creator god either rules over a hierarchy of gods, or has withdrawn his concern from this world (Yoruba). The Yoruba people of Nigeria believe that Oloroun gave them their fates at creation, but humans have forgotten then. While Olorun remains remote, a part of him, Esu, a trickster, mediates for humans. However, it is lesser spirits and ancestors which receive attention in African religions.
