Notes | In this beautiful and moving Masters of Landscape Architecture thesis, the author seeks to use the traditional knowledge of Native peoples to inform environmental management. “Using a literature review and semi-structured interviews, four categories for changes, and a set of practice principles were developed that could inform future restoration efforts on the Central Oregon Coast or elsewhere. This research was conducted with the understanding that indigenous peoples are experts of their own culture and realities. Drawing insight and inspiration from the experiences and cultural practices of the Hanis and Miluk Coos, Quiich [Lower Umpqua], and Sha'yuushtl'a [Siuslaw] peoples and their centuries of place-based knowledge, this research is intended to provide a lens through which to view the environmental world, illuminating a unique perspective on human environmental relationships and reciprocity” (from the Abstract). |
