  1. (, Current opinion in environmental sustainability)
    Seliš [Salish] oral stories engage with deep time and hold potential to stimulate hierophanies that establish connection between humanness and nature. Creation stories are integral to the establishment of values and sacredness and how the ‘sacred’ should be treated. Oral traditions are fallen out of use threatening ontological teachings of the Seliš people, a Native American tribal group. Five Seliš creations stories are examined to establish the ontology that animals offer as reflection of a reality that the environment and Seliš people are intertwined in all aspect of life. This analysis also dispels Eurocentric stereotyping of Native American oral stories, establishing that the animals in these stories are much like humans of today, exhibiting failings, vices and defects.
