Indigenous maps, cosmology, and spatial recognition of the North American Indian : with special reference to the Ojibway around Lake Superior in Cosmology, epistemology and the history of geography.

Auteur :
HISATAKE, T.

Description :
To seek a new horizon of studying the indigenous way of cartographic representation in the native societies of the American Indians, integrated knowledge on the so-called Indian maps, of cartography and geography, as well as ethnohistory and anthropology, are needed. By this way we may understand these native dogmas and weltbild or cosmogony in their own spatial recognition and its representation with native materials or their own means of drawing. - (SGA)
