The subject matter of the 36 tests presented in this document deals principally with three areas of Tuscarora culture: cosmological and traditional religious beliefs, medical practices, and mythic traditions. However, just as religion, medicine and myth do not appear to have been highly differentiated spheres of traditional Tuscarora society, they are seldom treated apart in individual texts. This volume organizes texts around three areas, placing those texts in which religious themes dominate together, and so on. Cosmological and religious topics are the dominant elements in the first four of the texts. The following 19 are concerned with medical practices. Included are texts which indicate how specific diseases are to be treated, and specific medicines prepared; texts which describe the roles which medicines and medical practitioners played in traditional Tuscarora society; and texts which deal with sorcery and witchcraft, practices which were intimately connected with medicine among the Tuscarora. The last 13 texts focus on Tuscarora mythic traditions, and describe many of the major characters who populated these myths.

If one seeks to understand Haudenosaunee (Six Nations) history, one must consider the history of Haudenosaunee land. For countless generations prior to European contact, land and territory informed Haudenosaunee thought and philosophy, and was a primary determinant of Haudenosaunee identity. In The Clay We Are Made Of, Susan M. Hill presents a revolutionary retelling of the history of the Grand River Haudenosaunee from their Creation Story through European contact to contemporary land claims negotiations. She incorporates Indigenous theory, fourth world post-colonialism, and Amerindian autohistory, along with Haudenosaunee languages, oral records, and wampum strings to provide the most comprehensive account of the Haudenosaunee’s relationship to their land. Hill outlines the basic principles and historical knowledge contained within four key epics passed down through Haudenosaunee cultural history. She highlights the political role of women in land negotiations and dispels their misrepresentation in the scholarly canon. She guides the reader through treaty relationships with Dutch, French, and British settler nations, including the Kaswentha/Two-Row Wampum (the precursor to all future Haudenosaunee-European treaties), the Covenant Chain, the Nanfan Treaty, and the Haldimand Proclamation, and concludes with a discussion of the current problematic relationships between the Grand River Haudenosaunee, the Crown, and the Canadian government.

Patterns of relative clause formation tend to vary according to the typological properties of a language. Highly polysynthetic languages tend to have fully nominalized relative clauses and no relative pronouns, while other typologically diverse languages tend to have relative clauses which are similar to main or independent clauses. Languages of the Americas, with their rich genetic diversity, have all been under the influence of European languages, whether Spanish, English or Portuguese, a situation that may be expected to have influenced their grammatical patterns. The present volume focuses on two tasks: The first deals with the discussion of functional principles related to relative clause formation: diachrony and paths of grammaticalization, simplicity vs. complexity, and formalization of rules to capture semantic-syntactic correlations. The second provides a typological overview of relative clauses in nine different languages going from north to south in the Americas.
