THE OLDMAN RIVER AND THE SACRED: A MEDITATION UPON APUTOSI PII'KANI TRADITION AND ENVIRONMENTAL ETHICS
|
Abstract / Résumé
Impacted by a water storage dam during the late eighties, the Old Man River, in present-day Alberta, has from time immemorial been the sacred center of the Aputosi Pii'kani people's homelands. Using an organic approach to oral tradition, the essay explores the religious significance of a Pii'kani sacred geography centered on the Old Man River. Considering environmental ethics, special attention is given to the Pii'kani worldview and tradition.
