  • Outline of United States Federal Indian Law and Policy
    Outline of United States federal Indian law and policy The following outline is provided as an overview of and topical guide to United States federal Indian law and policy: Federal Indian policy – establishes the relationship between the United States Government and the Indian Tribes within its borders. The Constitution gives the federal government primary responsibility for dealing with tribes. Law and U.S. public policy related to Native Americans have evolved continuously since the founding of the United States. David R. Wrone argues that the failure of the treaty system was because of the inability of an individualistic, democratic society to recognize group rights or the value of an organic, corporatist culture represented by the tribes.[1] U.S. Supreme Court cases List of United States Supreme Court cases involving Indian tribes Citizenship Adoption Mississippi Band of Choctaw Indians v.

  • Indigenous Gold from St. John, U.S. Virgin Islands: a Materials-Based Analysis
    1 ABSTRACT INDIGENOUS GOLD FROM ST. JOHN, U.S. VIRGIN ISLANDS: A MATERIALS-BASED ANALYSIS Stephen E. Jankiewicz, MA Department of Anthropology Northern Illinois University, 2016 Dr. Mark W. Mehrer, Director The purpose of this research is to examine the origin, manufacturing technique, function, and meaning of metals used during the twelfth and thirteenth centuries on the island of St. John, United States Virgin Islands. This project focuses on two metal artifacts recovered during National Park Service excavations conducted between 1998 and 2001 at a shoreline indigenous site located on Cinnamon Bay. These objects currently represent two of only three metal artifacts reported from the entire ancient Lesser Antilles. Chemical and physical analyses of the objects were completed with nondestructive techniques including binocular stereomicroscopy, scanning electron microscopy, portable X-ray fluorescence spectrometry, and particle-induced X-ray emission spectrometry with assistance from laboratories located at Northern Illinois University, Beloit College, Hope College and The Field Museum. This data will be combined with contextual site data and compared to other metal objects recovered throughout the ancient Caribbean. i NORTHERN ILLINOIS UNIVERSITY DEKALB, ILLINOIS MAY 2016 INDIGENOUS GOLD FROM ST.

The piece was created by Mr. Guardipee, who is from the Blackfeet Tribe in Montana and is known all over the country and internationally for his amazing ledger map collage paintings and other works of art. He was among the very first artists to revive the ledger art tradition and in the process has made it into his own map collage concept. These works of art incorporate traditional Blackfeet images into Mr. Guardipee’s contemporary form of ledger art. He attended the Institute of American Indian Arts in Sante Fe, New Mexico. His work has won top awards at the Santa Fe Market, the Heard Museum Indian Market, and the Autrey Museum Intertribal Market Place.

Studying Indigenous Brazil: The Xavante And The umH an Sciences, 1958-2015 Abstract This dissertation is a history of how Indigenous people and scholars from the natural and social sciences have engaged one another since the 1950s in Brazil. Through a case study of the Xavante, one of the most intensely studied groups in Central Brazil, it traces the evolution of relationships between researchers and research subjects. Xavante communities began establishing contact with Brazilian national society in the mid-1940s in the wake of settler colonial expansionism. This high-profile process of contact drew interest from researchers, with the first long-term academic ethnographer arriving in 1958. Scholars from across the human sciences followed, particularly from the fields of anthropology, human genetics, and public health. During subsequent decades, the Xavante were constructed as a population, characterized, and circulated internationally in the form of data, biological samples, and publications. In this sense, this story provides a thread to follow the development of twentieth-century approaches to the characterization of human cultural and biological diversity.

  • Ditransitive Constructions Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig (Germany) 23-25 November 2007
    Conference on Ditransitive Constructions Max Planck Institute for Evolutionary Anthropology, Leipzig (Germany) 23-25 November 2007 Abstracts On “Dimonotransitive” Structures in English Carmen Aguilera Carnerero University of Granada Ditransitive structures have been prototypically defined as those combinations of a ditransitive verb with an indirect object and a direct object. However, although in the prototypical ditransitive construction in English, both objects are present, there is often omission of one of the constituentes, usually the indirect object. The absence of the indirect object has been justified on the basis of the irrelevance of its specification or the possibility of recovering it from the context. The absence of the direct object, on the other hand, is not so common and only occur with a restricted number of verbs (e.g. pay, show or tell).This type of sentences have been called “dimonotransitives” by Nelson, Wallis and Aarts (2002) and the sole presence in the syntactic structure arises some interesting questions we want to clarify in this article, such as: (a) the degree of syntactic and semantic obligatoriness of indirect objects and certain ditransitive verbs (b) the syntactic behaviour of indirect objects in absence of the direct object, in other words, does the Oi take over some of the properties of typical direct objects as Huddleston and Pullum suggest? (c) The semantic and pragmatic interpretations of the missing element. To carry out our analysis, we will adopt a corpus –based approach and especifically we will use the International Corpus of English (ICE) for the most frequent ditransitive verbs (Mukherjee 2005) and the British National Corpus (BNC) for the not so frequent verbs.

  • Impossibility of Bijective Mapping Between Indigenous and Eurocentric Mathematical Knowledge1 Kécio Gonçalves Leite2 Universid
    doi.org/10.37001/remat25269062v18id603ing eISSN: 2526-9062 Impossibility of bijective mapping between indigenous and Eurocentric mathematical knowledge1 Kécio Gonçalves Leite2 Universidade Federal de Rondônia (UNIR), Departamento de Educação Intercultural, Ji-Paraná, Rondônia, Brazil Quesler Fagundes Camargos3 Universidade Federal de Rondônia (UNIR), Departamento de Educação Intercultural, Ji-Paraná, Rondônia, Brazil Abstract This article aims to discuss the problem of translating mathematical knowledge in the context of indigenous school education, from three aspects: (i) different languages are based on different reference systems, (ii) the logics of different mathematical knowledges are not equivalent, and (iii) there is an impossibility of bijective mapping between sets of indigenous and Eurocentric mathematical knowledges. In this sense, the idea of isomorphic translation associated with prescribed bilingualism is problematized as a characteristic of indigenous school education in Brazil. The theme is explored theoretically and illustrated with the analysis of textual productions of indigenous students of an intercultural licentiate-degree course in the Amazon. As a result, it is shown that the idea of total translation of Eurocentric mathematical knowledge between Portuguese and indigenous languages, inherent in a colonialist conception of school education for indigenous peoples, needs to be overcome, in order to promote the decoloniality of indigenous school education. Key-words: Ethnomathematics; Translation; Indigenous; Decoloniality.
