  • Maya Knowledge and "Science Wars"
    Journal of Ethnobiology 20(2); 129-158 Winter 2000 MAYA KNOWLEDGE AND "SCIENCE WARS" E. N. ANDERSON Department ofAnthropology University ofCalifornia, Riverside Riverside, CA 92521~0418 ABSTRACT.-Knowledge is socially constructed, yet humans succeed in knowing a great deal about their environments. Recent debates over the nature of "science" involve extreme positions, from claims that allscience is arbitrary to claims that science is somehow a privileged body of truth. Something may be learned by considering the biological knowledge of a very different culture with a long record of high civilization. Yucatec Maya cthnobiology agrees with contemporary international biological science in many respects, almost all of them highly specific, pragmatic and observational. It differs in many other respects, most of them highly inferential and cosmological. One may tentatively conclude that common observation of everyday matters is more directly affected by interaction with the nonhuman environment than is abstract deductive reasoning. but that social factors operate at all levels. Key words: Yucatec Maya, ethnoornithology, science wars, philosophy ofscience, Yucatan Peninsula RESUMEN.-EI EI conocimiento es una construcci6n social, pero los humanos pueden aprender mucho ce sus alrededores. Discursos recientes sobre "ciencia" incluyen posiciones extremos; algunos proponen que "ciencia" es arbitrario, otros proponen que "ciencia" es verdad absoluto. Seria posible conocer mucho si investiguemos el conocimiento biol6gico de una cultura, muy difcrente, con una historia larga de alta civilizaci6n.

  • Thinking About the Human Bias in Our Ecological Analyses for Biodiversity Conservation Sérgio De Faria Lopes1,*
    REVIEW Ethnobiology and Conservation 2017, 6:14 (18 August 2017) doi:10.15451/ec2017­08­6.14­1­24 ISSN 2238­4782 ethnobioconservation.com The other side of Ecology: thinking about the human bias in our ecological analyses for biodiversity conservation Sérgio de Faria Lopes1,* ABSTRACT Ecology as a science emerged within a classic Cartesian positivist context, in which relationships should be understood by the division of knowledge and its subsequent generalization. Over­time, ecology has addressed many questions, from the processes that lead to the origin and maintenance of life to modern theories of trophic webs and non­ equilibrium. However, the ecological models and ecosystem theories used in the field of ecology have had difficulty integrating man into analysis, although humans have emerged as a global force that is transforming the entirety of planet. In this sense, currently, advances in the field of the ecology that develop outside of research centers is under the spotlight for social, political, economic and environmental goals, mainly due the environmental crisis resulting from overexploitation of natural resources and habitat fragmentation. Herein a brief historical review of ecology as science and humankind’s relationship with nature is presented, with the objective of assessing the impartiality and neutrality of scientific research and new possibilities of understanding and consolidating knowledge, specifically local ecological knowledge. Moreover, and in a contemporary way, the human being presence in environmental relationships, both as a study object, as well as an observer, proposer of interpretation routes and discussion, requires new possibilities. Among these proposals, the human bias in studies of the biodiversity conservation emerges as the other side of ecology, integrating scientific knowledge with local ecological knowledge and converging with the idea of complexity in the relationships of humans with the environment.

  • Program of the 34Th Annual Meeting of the Society of Ethnobiology
    Program of the 34th Annual Meeting of the Society of Ethnobiology Historical and Archaeological Perspecives in Ethnobiology May 4 - 7, 2011 Columbus, Ohio Welcome to the 34th Annual Meeting of the Society of Ethnobiology This meeting continues a long tradition in our Society. Since the first Society meeting in 1978 – when many of the world’s leading ethnobiologists came together to share ideas – the Society has been at the forefront of inter-disciplinary ethnobiological research. Equally important, since those first days, the Society has created and nurtured a worldwide ethnobiological community that has become the intellec- tual and emotional home for scholars world-wide. Our meetings are the forum for bringing this community together and our world-class journal is the venue for sharing our research more broadly. For my part, my deep commitment to the Society began as a student in 1984, at the 7th Annual meetings. At that time, I was fortunate to present the results of my Masters research (while referring to text on glossy erasable typing paper!) in Harriet Kuhnlein’s session on her inter-disciplinary and community-based “Nuxalk Food and Nutrition Project”. This project and indeed my opportunity to be involved in it (as a Masters student in Archaeology, of all things), exemplifies the potential of ethnobiology to make linkages. Looking at the society today, we see abundant linkages between academic disciplines, between academic and non-academic knowledge holders, and between advanced scholars and new researchers. This is what the Society of Ethnobiology is all about. In the past four years, your Board and many other Society volunteers have worked hard to promote the Society’s goals by focus- ing on these linkages.

Biodiversitas 17: 435-446. Based on the ecological history, in the past many villages of in Indonesia including in West Java had a high diversity of birds. Nowadays, however, the diversity of birds in some villages of West Java has tended to decrease due to many factors, namely habitat loss, the use of pesticides, and intensive illegal bird hunting. The objective of this paper is to elucidate the local knowledge of Karangwangi village, West Java on species, role, and hunting of birds. Method used in this study is the qualitative and ethnoornithological approach with descriptive analysis. Results of study show that the Karangwangi people have a very good knowledge on bird species, particularly on level species/specific.

  • Ioumal of Ethnobiology INDEX to KEY WORDS Volume I, Number 1 Through Volume 5, Number 2
    Winter 1985 JOURNAL OF ETHNOBIOLOGY 167 Ioumal of Ethnobiology INDEX TO KEY WORDS Volume I, Number 1 through Volume 5, Number 2. Editor's Note. In this compilation of key words, the number in bold face type immediately following an entry indicates the volume (1 through 5); the year the volume was published can be calculated by adding 1980 to the volume number, thus volume 5 was published in 1985. The pages within a volume run continuously, eliminating the need to give the numberwithin a volume. Since this is an abridged index and since key words are often implicit as concepts on pages in addition to those on which they actually appear, I decided to give pages numbers of the entire paper rather than specific pages of index entries as is usual with more comprehensive treatments. For the most part, authors selected the key words for inclusion in this index. In those few instances where authors did not respond, selections were made by the editorial staff. I am grateful to Maria Romero, editorial assistant, for assistance with this compilation. Reprints of this index are available at a cost of U.s. $2.00 from the Secretary/Treasurer (for the address see the inside front cover of this issue or the most recent issue in the future).

The annual conference of the Society of Ethnobiology is an opportunity to disseminate research, learn about field methodologies, and connect with fellow scholars. This year our conference theme is focused on “the many faces of ethnobiology” as we encourage a wide-range of scholars who work with the relationships between culture, biology, and environments. Ethnobiology is a diverse field that is inclusive of anthropology, archaeology, botany, ecology, linguistics, natural history, nutrition, pharmacology, zoology, to name just a few. Across the range of disciplines, the Society of Ethnobiology embraces non-Western, native, and indigenous scholars as vibrant members of our research community. The 38th Annual Conference will showcase the many faces of ethnobiology through our sessions and special events. This year, our conference is hosted in Santa Barbara, California, a coastal region with a rich archeological and cultural history. Some highlights of the 38th Annual Conference include: • Plenary session titled “Ethnobiology of South-Central California: Past, Present, and Future” including reports on early archaeological sites in the local Channel Islands, • Guest presenters on the Santa Ynez Chumash language revitalization program, • Contributed papers in all areas of Ethnobiology, • Distinguished Society Awards, • Two days of concurrent sessions, • 2 exciting and unique field trips, • Banquet at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History .

  • The 42Nd Society of Ethnobiology Annual Meeting, Vancouver, BC
    The 42nd Society of Ethnobiology Annual Meeting, Vancouver, BC May 8 – 11, 2019 On the traditional, ancestral, and unceded territory of the hən̓q̓əmin̓əm̓ -speaking Musqueam people CONFERENCE THEME AND LOGO This year’s conference theme,“Voices”, honors the relationships between ethnobiology and language, song, stories, and activism. The importance of ethnobiology’s role in a myriad of social, ecological, academic, and applied contexts is reflected by the breadth of presentations reflected in this program. In the 2019 SoE conference, we celebrate the many voices of ethnobiology, as well as our privilege to be part of this community of singers, story-tellers, native speakers, and activists. Our conference logo, “Salmon People" was produced by Arianna Augustine, a Coast Salish artist from the Stz’uminus community. In one design, Arianna expresses the multi-dimensional theme of this year’s conference. The Salmon People design is based on the creation story as told by Stuart Pagaduan (Cowichan Tribe). This ancient story tells about how the creator, Xeel's, scooped up some of the salmon and released them to become the Gulf Islands. Xeel's said, "From now on you will provide for and take care of the people. You will provide them with food from your beaches and medicines from your forests." Xeel's then scooped up more salmon and said to them, "You are no longer Salmon, you are people. You will take care of the islands and you will tell others how the islands were created." The transformation was complete and still to this day, every fall when the Salmon travel to their spawning ground, they are happy to see their relatives, the Gulf Islands.
