I hope this isn’t the end of discussion for Indigenous issues on this channel. I think it’s important that we elevate voices of Indigenous people; we’ve silenced them for too long. There’s a lot to learn and to teach.

Please, we need another season! Thank you so much for having this series and putting in the work you have. I didn't think watching this one and your final words would get me emotional but it did. I loved learning new things and supplementing what I have learned about the indigenous world through this series. Thank you again.

As someone who's family was taken and hidden from our heritage to protect the children (my mother) from being stolen during the 70's, who was raised being told to 'know and be proud you are indian inside, but dont tell anyone that you are indian on the outside', learning that little family quirks and stories have deep connections to a culture we were kept from has been eye opening. And finding my way back to to the culture has been deeply important and healing for me. Media such as this has been one of the many stepping stones on my road of reconnection. Thank you, from the deepest places of my heart. I always felt lost and out of place until I began to rediscover where I came from. You have all done very important work with this series, perhaps even more than you'll ever really know, and I sincerely hope you can continue to do so.

It's over already?! Omgosh. I need more. I was born on turtle island but I am not indigenous. I want to learn more about ways to "immigrate" to, live with in, and speak the languages just as I would if I immigrated to Nigeria or Japan.

I will be incredibly devastated if this is the end of the series. This has been a source of comfort after losing my grandmother, who was my real connection to my tribal heritage. Without her around it feels like I have lost a part of my identity. Seeing many types of indigenous representation and knowledge being shared makes this an important series that I really hope continues.

My great^2 grandfather is Saàmi, Indigenous Scandinavian; he settled among the Salish and Kootenai Peoples in Montana, USA. I love learning from other Indigenous people, we have held so much wisdom about our world; it breaks my heart that so many and so much of it has been silenced. Blessings from the US!

Loved this series - we need a second season! One major issue though, which is those White Shaman paintings are NOT Nahua but a different proto-culture with more in common with the Wixarika. It isn’t the same due to time and migration, but clearly has ties.

As a (settler) teacher of future art teachers, who works to center contemporary Indigenous voices in his curriculum for a settler-majority population of future art teachers, this video series has been illuminating and essential - I hope you get to do more of these! Obviously the priority is the value these videos have for Indigenous viewers to see and be seen - but these videos also have a larger and potentially transformative impact for settlers who need to better recognize Indigenous peoples and cede (literal and figurative) space to them.

Thank you for sharing this video, I hope you make more! I also hope to see more connections between indigenous knowledge and current mainstream science. There’s a lot of deep understanding that comes from thousands of years of experience, and I think sometimes it’s tempting for modern Euro-centric thinkers to believe they have to re-invent the wheel and find all the answers themselves.

Great segment as always. I know Kurly and he has gotten me tired recommending me Archeology sites to visit. Lol. Great guy. I recommend reading his books and podcast (tales from aztlantis) that debunk native american modern misconceptions. If you heard it in mainstream culture, kurly has broken down where the idea came from and why it's wrong. A few issues on this video: That piece that you shown is not the Maya Calendar. That's a modern piece of art from new agers. Also, Mayan refers to the language.

Thanks for watching! big apologises for the calendar. We will try to do better in the future. As for Kurly, he is such a treasure, he was a great person to speak with and walk around the petroglyphs with. - Series Director

@tecpaocelotl 6 ай бұрын

@pbsvoices kurly is doing a great job on represtation. He is an archeologist, his past is in film, and he brings up important native issues to the white scientists' community, which most first hear about it from him. He even debunked a racist scientific paper towards natives. I'm hoping his recognition gets you guys more attention. Overall, you guys are doing a good job, and I'm hoping to see a 2nd season. I filled out the survey at the end and gave you guys positive praise.

More, please!!! I have learned so much. I used to teach multicultural psychology (against the wishes of department members who tried to kill it before it started). I am now retired, but the more resources that are out there by Indigenous creators, the more comprehensive will be the teaching and understanding of those who follow me. I had the advantage of a connection to several local tribes, but most folks will not. This is precious.

This is the kind of cultural content that I really want; I don't feel connected to my European ancestral cultures - monotheism has caused such devastating harm worldwide. The ancestral knowledge of our indigenous nations makes so much more sense for North America. I only have a fragment of indigenous blood myself, (my great grandmother was Métis,) but I still think that it is foolish that our colonial cultures spend so much time ignoring the history and knowledge of *people who have been here for literally forever.* (16-20+ THOUSAND years definitely qualifies as forever in my books at least.)

Here in Aotearoa New Zealand there's a TV show called 'Moon Tide Fishing'. It's all about going fishing based on the current phase of the moon, as understood by Māori. There's also a greater acceptance of mātauranga Māori (a form of scientific understanding) among the western science community, with partnerships being formed to study and understand traditional practices. It's fascinating to see it grow.

The first thing that came to my mind when I spent time down at the Petroglyph Monument was that there were so many just random carvings it felt like a place where people were learning and sketching and practicing cuz there's certain things that are obviously unfinished things that are just really very crude all the way up to things that are very detailed and very very good.

Many indigenous cultures hold the view that we are related to all other living beings and the earth itself. That the animals are our siblings, that we came certain animals, or from trees and stone. Considering evolution and how we are actually all genetically related, however distantly, to all life on earth via the single celled Last Universal Common Ancestor (LUCA), I feel like it’s not only the most scientifically accurate worldview, it also gives me great respect and love for our planet and animals

thank you -- I would like one large university teaching and researching the First Nation world in toto for the whole of the Americas, with different courses in the different disciplines - language culture stories art religion craft archaeology psychology anthropology agriculture etc etc there are so many aspects to study and so much salvage and reconstruction needed -- you and your friends should be university professors at the top of the profession -- one university focused entirely on the First Nations -- it could be a wonderful degree -- just like we have English Literature in the UK -- a wonderful substantial learning at the beginning of adulthood, an enrichment and a growth in confidence, and a learning about the big picture of all the First Nations -- I'd like to give that to all First Nation youth who would enjoy and grow with it.

The best one is pretty incredible. The 20 days known to the Maya and many other nations, correlate precisely with the alphabetical order of the 20 amino acids by sequence and function. Glycine is Tijax the Flint. Balance of polarities. Electricity. Tyrosine is Toj, and Toj (19) is related to Kat (14) which is Phenylalanine. The functions are very obvious. Also, the 20 days also correlate in sequence and function with the primordial elements , Tin - Yyterbium. In that one Tijax is Lanthanum. The flint. Etc etc...I've done a few vids on it.

I had already graduated from archaeology before i was taught that semi-sedentery civilizations like Piney Point (modern louisiana) were innovative trade empires that stretched across the ocean and even had standardized forms of math, geometry, and measurement. The problem with archaeology as its typically taught is that we hyperfocus on economic development by looking for evidence of wealth & "permanent" structures. We dont give any credit to the many hundred-thousands of years of traders, explorers, scientists, and biodiversity that paved the way. Technology does not only include metal tools or smart phones...it also includes astronomy, math, music, art, medicine, construction techniques, and more. Its easy to disregard the majesty of mammoth tusk huts before you learn that it required the collective effort of an entire family or tribe to plan & complete, representing generations of wealth & safety for future gatherings.

I know that all the tribes around the Great Lakes used to place the start of the new year around the end of winter- so March-April. I'm curious if the October thing is a southwestern thing, or just a southern thing, in general. It makes sense that people who don't experience winter would pick a different annual event to base their calendars off of.
