However, many people in Nuuk, the capital and 74 largest city, believe traditional knowledge of plant uses has been lost due to extensive 75 Danish contact. Our findings indicate that in southern Greenland local knowledge of plant 76 uses is greater than believed, and that people use a vast number of resources to learn about 77 plants, including not only Inuit knowledge from elders, but also published European 78 sources and experimentation. We take an interdisciplinary approach to documenting this 79 knowledge: the biologist provides understanding of botanical identification, plant uses, 80 methods of collection, preparation, and storage, while the linguist provides access to the 81 linguistic identification of the plants, both in Greenland and in a pan-Inuit context, and 82 access to the historical documentation.
