Description: Ancestral Places : Understanding Kanaka Geographies, Paperback by Oliveira, Katrina-ann R. Kapa'anaokalaokeola Nakoa, ISBN 0870716735, ISBN-13 9780870716737, Used Good Condition, Free shipping in the US Ancestral Places incorporates language, illustrations, historical accounts, and poetry to describe the connections between Native Hawaiians and their land. Place is so important to Native Hawaiians that major life decisions are based on place and even common introductions involve place in relation to identity. In fact, when a baby is born, its placenta is buried in the earth where they are from so that they will always have a connection to the land where they were born. Ancestral Places describes Hawaiian geography from an indigenous spiritual and communal perspective based on ancestral knowledge systems. Annotation ©2014 Ringgold, Inc., Portland, OR ()
