In this context, some sort of Evergreen shrub.

Did this ever make sense or was he just bad.

Starting to feel sick. I know it still happens today in various forms but it just disgusts me.

I'm sure javelins killed their fair share of Englishmen.

Prayer?

Does he also want a cookie?

So what did they actually see?

I would have thrown him over-board haha.

A what? A type of bird?

Chains and whips?

Remember, losing sleep is never worth it.

Nina, Pinta, and the Santa Maria.

Don?

I thought this was important all on its own. Did they put this before everything? Was he just really religious?

I still find it intriguing that America was found because someone was trying to cheat life by taking a shortcut.

Where does this come from?

So far I'm not following this one at all. The Native American woman somehow acquired a wasteful lifestyle just by being in England? They boy represents this? No clue

This seemed to be sort of abrupt. Ugh sorry to be awkward but how do you die from menstruation?

Native Americans used every part of an animal they killed. They also apologized for their need to kill it. Well at least some Native Americans at some point.

It is interesting to consider all of the animals that could kill us but through generations of crafting and sharing we are now the dominant species over all. without our weapons we are useless against them.

Everything was perfect and happiness rules the planet. Something about this just sounded so childish and cartoony. But it was an interesting start.

This was before the Hans and the Mooneys made a treaty and became the Mooneyhans. True story.

It has become all consuming, causing massive delusions.

When/where did To-day become today?

How does that even work? Maybe it was a case of double hypochondria?

Or maybe he just hallucinated so hard he didn't feel it anymore

What made them view this drug as holy? They might have believed it to be visions from god himself.

A lucid thought? Woah... Haha

A lucid thought? Woah... Haha

A lucid thought? Woah... Haha

The living thing inside might have seemed horrible, but once the fog cleared he obviously knew it was all in his head.

So it is a hallucinogenic drug prepared by the Native Americans.

Hmm, so to keep everyone involved while also measuring devotion?

So every six months or so they had more meetings than once a week, but in some years the meetings around Christmas lost popularity? Why is this? The introduction of other religions?

I wasn't able to get through the entire thing but I chose this because it shows us how five of the smartest Native American tribes viewed the world through a narrative. It is important to understand both where traditions come from and how they are explained. It is also used as a way to explain things we do not understand such as heaven, god, and the thoughts of animals. It shows us how they believe everything is alive and why.

So it seems she removed tooth and the animals poured out of it onto Earth?

So a marriage between gods daughter and the guardian of Earth is what caused humans to go from heaven to Earth. Something like that.

I finally figured it out. There is Earth, "Heaven", and the high place is even above Heaven. This place above heaven is god and where he resides.

What I am getting from this is that She brought something from where she came and is now bringing something in return, ridding the two worlds and creating one combined world? Not sure, sort of confusing.

Why do external forces keep trying to stop her? How does she keep going and why?

The tree bears that cause the world to be light shows how these five tribes viewed everything to be powerful and alive. Is another lodge almost like another universe or place. Did she leave "heaven" and go to Earth?

Another example of how they believed that everything was essential a human like being. At least they could posses human like qualities.

This could explain some of the ways that the roles of women came from, or at least a way they were justified.

I chose this reading because it was written by a chief of one of the five or six Iroquois tribes that were more sophisticated and spiritual than the surrounding tribes. It talks about the formation of Earth, man, and important traditions.

So it was an early belief passed down generation to generation that a place existed in the sky where man like beings lived. Gods? Heaven?

In this "perfect" world man and woman lived together yet apart?

This and the rest of the paragraph seems to explain how humans adopted burial traditions. It also most likely marks an upcoming change.

bracelet of sorts.

If they are already living in the sky what is this high place? As an off note: could there always be a heaven or sky/greater place to ever greater place? #psuamlit

This appears to be a sort of metaphor, possibly representing courtship and even coitus. #psuamlit
