Produced by Luan Marks with support of the Indian Land Tenure Foundation, this typology thoroughly delineates the deep and abiding reverence, relationship, and respect for Land and for Place that pervade Native North American texts and narratives, and it illuminates the ways in which sacred Land and Place are perceived, conceived, and contextualized in those texts and narratives in the past and present. This work has been done to provide context about sacred Lands and Places and to extend the arguments for their defense. It is done at a time when increased dialogue - through conversation, consultation, litigation, and other means - can be pivotal in many outcomes.
