Описание: The Eastern Himalaya holds perhaps the highest levels of ethnolinguistic diversity in all Eurasia, with over 300 languages spoken by as many distinct cultural groups. What factors can explain such diversity? How did it evolve, and what can its analysis teach us about the prehistory of its wider region?
This pioneering interdisciplinary volume brings together a diverse group of linguists and anthropologists, all of whom seek to reconstruct aspects of Eastern Himalayan ethnolinguistic prehistory from an empirical standpoint, on the basis of primary fieldwork-derived data from a diverse range of Himalayan Indigenous languages and cultural practices.

Описание: Masked Histories celebrates the remarkable Torres Strait Islander turtle shell masks that were taken or traded by Europeans throughout the nineteenth century. Displayed as curiosities or art in museums and galleries around the world, the Islander knowledges they held were silenced. Delving into old stories from both Islanders and the foreigners who had travelled to the region, Lui-Chivizhe reanimates the masks with their Islander meaning and purpose and, in so doing, powerfully recreates the past. Masked Histories advances a vivid new history, uncovering the profound importance of the turtle shell masks to all Islanders and revealing much about the people who created them.

Words cannot give full coverage of someone's personality traits. However, they provide a deep understanding of their thoughts and behavior.
And if you know the thoughts of the person in front of you, it is quite easy to direct his behavior wherever you want.
The human mind is incredibly smart and efficient. We only use nouns and verbs when we speak, and other parts of speech are added afterward during the transformation of ideas into spoken language.
Body language is a kind of communication to express information. It includes touching, body posture, gestures, eye motion, facial expressions, and distance.
Once you get to know another person's body movements better, you can understand what makes them unique. The more you know about people, the better you can conclude a strategy to pursue them.

In A People and a Nation, the authors, most of whom are M?tis, offer readers a set of lenses through which to consider the complexity of historical and contemporary M?tis nationhood and peoplehood. The field of M?tis Studies has been afflicted by a longstanding tendency to situate M?tis within deeply racialized contexts, and/or by an overwhelming focus on the nineteenth century. This volume challenges the pervasive racialization of M?tis studies with multidisciplinary chapters on identity, history, politics, literature, spirituality, religion, and kinship networks, reorienting the conversation toward M?tis experiences today.

Body language is a kind of communication to express the info. Such behavior includes touch, body posture, gestures, eye motion, facial expressions, and distance.
Body language shouldn't be confused with sign language. Sign languages are complete languages, just like spoken languages. They have their own complicated grammar systems, as well as the ability to exhibit fundamental properties that exist in most languages. Body language, in contrast, does not have a grammar program. It must be interpreted widely rather than having a complete significance corresponding with a specific motion.
Once you get to know the body movements of another person better, you can also understand what makes them unique. The more you know about a person, the better you can conclude the best strategy for persuasion.
For this reason, this book includes the following topics:
- How to analyze the behavior of people
- Why people act a certain way
- Deconstructing behaviors
- How to use emotional intelligence to analyze people
- Knowing and managing different personalities
- The secret of body language
- See if they are lying to you using non-verbal signals
- How does the body reveal emotions?
- Gestures of men and women
And much more....

Описание: Ninety years ago Great Plains archaeologists such as Waldo Wedel and William Duncan Strong made foundational contributions to American archaeology, enabling new discoveries, insights, and interpretations. This volume explores how twenty-first-century archaeologists have built upon, remodeled, and sometimes rejected the inferences of these earlier scholars with updated overviews and analyses. Contributors highlight how Indigenous Plains groups participated in large-scale social networks in which ideas, symbols, artifacts, and people moved across North America over the last 2,000 years. They also discuss cultural transformation, focusing on key demographic, economic, social, and ceremonial factors associated with change, including colonization and integration into the social and political economies of transatlantic societies. Cultural traditions covered include Woodland-era Kansas City Hopewell, late prehistoric Central Plains tradition, and ancestral and early historic Wichita, Pawnee and Arikara, Kanza, Plains Apache, and Puebloan migrants. As the first review of Plains archaeology in more than a decade, this book brings studies of early Indigenous peoples of the central and southern Plains into a new era.
Описание: Selected for the 2021 Donald L. Fixico Award for Best Book on American Indian and Canadian First Nations HistoryBefore an indigenous people can decolonize, Leo Killsback explains, they must first understand what the world was like before colonization. Such understanding allows indigenous people to generate realistic goals and achieve positive change, reinventing themselves into people and nations who can honor original ways without corrupting or disgracing them.In two volumes, A Sacred People and A Sovereign People, Killsback, a citizen of the Northern Cheyenne Nation, reconstructs and rekindles an ancient Cheyenne world--ways of living and thinking that became casualties of colonization and forced assimilation. Spanning more than a millennium of antiquity and recovering stories and ideas interpreted from a Cheyenne worldview, the works’ joint purpose is rooted as much in a decolonization roadmap as it is in preservation of culture and identity for the next generations of Cheyenne people.Dividing the story of the Cheyenne Nation into pre- and post-contact, A Sacred People and A Sovereign People lay out indigenously conceived possibilities for employing traditional worldviews to replace unhealthy and dysfunctional ones bred of territorial, cultural, and psychological colonization.Together these volumes use an ancient past to confront long-standing challenges and to speak to the future. Comprising teachings that go to the true identities of the old ones, they reveal a way of thinking that today very few people know and even fewer live. Within such revelations about past leaders and events, Killsback demonstrates, lie the foundations for rebuilding and healing the Cheyenne Nation.
