The Arizona Ethnobotanical Research Association Celebrates 25 Years of Plant Documentation in the Little Colorado River Basin

摘要

Two integral threads in the web of life on this planet are increasingly threatened: (1) native plants and (2) the ancient indigenous wisdom and ritual surrounding their use. One place in the United States where native plant traditions are still aliveis in northern Arizona, where many indigenous tribes still use plants that their elders have used for generations before them. An organization supporting this continued tradition and movement back to the land is the Arizona Ethnobotanical Research Association (AERA).
