This may be much closer to where a few I know live, & this may help encourage a visit to such places of the Kwakiutl.
Tan matumma teeta Yurok kur ainukor.
(This mare respects the Yurok people here.) Why shouldn’t we follow her example? A nod to my editor’s visit last week through north state California & southern Oregon including Crescent City & some parks nearby including 1 near the Klamath River.
Princess Luna appreciates that the Yurok people let us learn about them and their land. She reminds us that we need to be respectful. (Click through for more information)
Tuttarep toy ninar pirka wa raka-an okay.
(Clam garden terraces are good and useful.) My editor was watching some wild travel programs and found along the way one about western Canada, & learned that many landscape features including rocky coasts are often made for specific purposes, like the above clam harvesting & salmon harnessing of their hatchplaces. Apparently, along with the sites mentioned inside, there are over 2,000 such sites found inside of those along with Oregon & even California.
Yet another example of culture & traditions being confirmed by modern science. Now here's an example of traditions coming to light in positive ways. When I spoke of looking at cultural traditions that aren't as proud of aspects to help adapt as needed while encouraging the growth of the culture as a whole, this would be an example of what to look for. When I once spoke of something of the like yesteryear with someone, it came out really wrong & have deeply regretted said saying ever since & for that, I deeply & sincerely apologise. I do hope the people can learn from the link inside & see I mean them no harm nor wish them malice.
