Examining Committee Supervisor: Gregory Forth, Anthropology Committee Member: Kathleen Lowrey, Anthropology Committee Member: Jane Samson, History and Classics People and Fish in Fiji an ethnobiological study of a coral reef ecosystem ABSTRACT. -- People are active participants in coral reef ecosystems. This ethnobiology study considers and contrasts folkbiological knowledge of people living in two groups of artisanal fishing villages in Kadavu Province, Fiji. The high level of biological diversity on the Astrolabe Reef provides insights into folk categorization and classification methods that include colour, shape, size, physical features, and habits of certain reef fish and marine animals. Surveying large numbers of experts and novices on defined groups of creatures yields more depth and range of responses allowing higher confidence levels in response accuracy. A comparison of the data with Berlin’s (1992) proposed principles yields mixed results. Sea cucumbers have high ecological salience and their identification requires attention to the affect of two centuries of trade on Fijian society. Effective ethnobiological research provides productive options to contribute to coral reef sustainability programs with long term benefits for local people and marine life. Key words: Kadavu, naming and classification of fish, coral reef ethnobiology. Preface This study is about, by, and for the people of several villages on the Ono Channel between Kadavu and Ono Islands in Fiji who live in a rich and unique environment, their vanua , that extends under the sea and out beyond the Great Astrolabe Reef; the fourth largest coral reef in the world. I first visited the area for two weeks in 1997, and returned to spend nine weeks here in 2009, learning of local people’s folkbiological knowledge of fish and marine animals in this high biological diversity environment. I provide a definition of the term ‘folkbiology’ in Section iii of the Introduction. This thesis reflects these people’s insights into innovative ways of perceiving biological environments and negotiating balances between established traditional ways of living and adjustment strategies for changing environmental circumstances and rapidly changing lifestyles. People are thinking about their environments in new ways as the weather patterns, which define daily life, change in ways that traditional knowledge does not anticipate. Elders and middle aged people speak of climate change often. Many homes are only a metre or two above current peak tide levels. We had two tsunami warnings in the short time I was there, which were uneventful in the Ono Channel, but were the first warnings that people could recall in decades. In December of 2009, after I left, cyclone Mitch hit the area hard, toppling century-old trees onto homes in Lagalevu village. I do not mean to overdramatize the topic, but people here are thinking about their environment in new ways. Fish stocks are under pressure and several conservation focused organizations have been working on sustainable coral reef management projects here over the last few years. At the same time technology and communication tools, such as cell phone service introduced in late 2008 and now cell- based internet service, change daily life in places where most people do not have electricity and cook their food with wood fires. In 2009, a young lady from down-island connects with a young Tiliva man using text messaging and eventually elopes with him, meeting him in person for the first time in the dead-of-night to leave her home village to settle in Tiliva village. The people of Tiliva respond enthusiastically with a four day and night yaqona party and a two day hangover. Life changes and stays the same. So what does all this have to do with ethnobiology? Much of this thesis is devoted to presenting the results of the ethnobiological research, and nomenclature collection, performed in relation to the work of other ethnobiologists and fieldworkers. I see this work as a starting point towards a better understanding for local people and those people interested in folkbiologies, to understand how people perceive and engage high diversity coral reef environments; using what Scott Atran and Douglas Medin (2008:3) refer to as a “distinct module of the mind that is associated with universal patterns of categorization and reasoning.” There are a number of ways that research of this nature can be productive and in each of the four main analytical chapters, I investigate a specific group of fish or marine animals in a different manner and suggest different uses for the research. Like any successful project, many people supported my efforts in the field, and getting ready to be there in the first place. I appreciate the support of the Fijian Government Ministries that approved the project. This research would not have been possible without the kind assistance and direction of Rogo, Tulala, La, and Isoa in Kadavu and Ono. I thank the leaders and people of Buliya, Lagalevu, Matasawalevu, Tiliva, Waisomo, Vabea, and friends from Nakasaleka and Narikosa who contributed their knowledge and time to this research, and their warm Fijian hospitality to me. Thank you to Cheryl, Justin, and their team for support of the diving and underwater photography, and concurring on our decision not to ‘wait out’ the tsunami warning underwater, as advised by officials unknown. I appreciate the generosity of time and information provided by academic colleagues including Eugene Anderson, Aporosa, Mark Calamia, Paul Geraghty, Sharon Jones, Ritsuko Kikusawa, Meredith Osmond, Andrew Pawley, and Matt Tomlinson. I thank the faculty and staff of the Department of Anthropology at the University of Alberta, and in particular, my supervisor, Gregory Forth, for providing the training, inspiration, encouragement, and scholarship support to allow this research to go forward.

The research investigated questions of early Holocene wood artifact technologies and other plant use before the large-scale arrival of western redcedar (Thuja plicata), a cultural keystone species for Haida in more recent times. The project relied on small- scale excavations and sampling from two main areas of the site: a hearth complex and an activity area at the edge of a paleopond. The archaeobotanical assemblage from these two areas yielded 23 plant taxa representing 14 families in the form of wood, charcoal, seeds, and additional plant macrofossils.

  • Gitksan Plant Classification and Nomenclature
    Journal of Ethnobiology 19(2): 179-218 Winler 1999 GITKSAN PLANT CLASSIFICATION AND NOMENCLATURE LESLIE MAIN JOHNSON Department ofAnthropology, University ofAlberta Edmonton, Alberta, Canada T6G 2H4 ABSTRACT.- The Gitksan of northwestern British Columbia are speakers of an Interior Tsimshianic language. They live in a mountainous, densely forested environment transitional between the Northwest Coast and the Boreal interior plateau. Traditionally the Gitksan pursued a mixed fishing/hunting/ gathering subsistence strategy. The Gitksan have a roughly hierarchical classification of plants. The general domain 'plant kingdom' or 'floral form' is recognized but not overtly labelled. Within this, several broad groupings of the life form sort can be distinguished. Three of these are large groupings composed ofa number of named subordinate generics: gan 'trees,' sgan 'plants,' and maa'y 'berry' or 'fruit plants.' 'Plants' include a diverse mixture of forms ranging from small trees to some perennial herbs, and prostrate sub-shrubs. The 'plant' and the 'berry' groups overlap extensively. The remainder are residual taxa which are empty, containing few or no named subtypes, though encompassing morphological and taxonomically diverse forms: habasxw'grass' or'hay,' 'yens 'leaves' or 'herbaceous plants,' majagalee 'flowers,' umhlw 'moss,' and.gayda ts'uuts 'fungi.' A mixture of morphologic and utilitarian characters seems to underlie the system of plant classification. The relationship of partonomy to utility and classification is explored. Ninety distinct generics have been documented. Eighty-four represent vascular plants and six represent mosses, fungi and lichens. Keywords: classification, Gitksan, ethnobotany, Canada, Northwest Coast RFSUMEN.- Los Gitksan hablan una Iengua tsimsiana interior. Viven en una region montaflosa y de bosques densos.

  • An Earthly Cosmology
    Forum on Religion and Ecology Indigenous Traditions and Ecology Annotated Bibliography Abram, David. Becoming Animal: An Earthly Cosmology. New York and Canada: Vintage Books, 2011. As the climate veers toward catastrophe, the innumerable losses cascading through the biosphere make vividly evident the need for a metamorphosis in our relation to the living land. For too long we’ve ignored the wild intelligence of our bodies, taking our primary truths from technologies that hold the living world at a distance. Abram’s writing subverts this distance, drawing readers ever closer to their animal senses in order to explore, from within, the elemental kinship between the human body and the breathing Earth. The shape-shifting of ravens, the erotic nature of gravity, the eloquence of thunder, the pleasures of being edible: all have their place in this book. --------. The Spell of the Sensuous: Perception and Language in a More-than-Human World. New York: Vintage, 1997. Abram argues that “we are human only in contact, and conviviality, with what is not human” (p. ix). He supports this premise with empirical information, sensorial experience, philosophical reflection, and the theoretical discipline of phenomenology and draws on Merleau-Ponty’s philosophy of perception as reciprocal exchange in order to illuminate the sensuous nature of language. Additionally, he explores how Western civilization has lost this perception and provides examples of cultures in which the “landscape of language” has not been forgotten. The environmental crisis is central to Abram’s purpose and despite his critique of the consequences of a written culture, he maintains the importance of literacy and encourages the release of its true potency.

Initially, archaeologists primarily accessed traditional knowledge second-hand, attempting to extract historical data from ethnographic sources. However, as archaeologists increasingly work with (and sometimes for) Indigenous communities, they have the opportunity to access traditional knowledge directly. Traditional knowledge is a powerful resource for archaeology, but working with it raises significant socio-political issues. Additionally, integrating traditional knowledge with archaeology’s interpretive frameworks can present methodological and epistemological challenges. This thesis examines the implications of archaeologists’ engagement with traditional knowledge in British Columbia, Canada, where changes at both a disciplinary and broader societal level indicate that archaeologists will increasingly need to find effective and ethical ways to work with traditional knowledge (and knowledge-holders).
