A lot has gone on with the elders None of the songs are written down, they are all handed down by learning them
Quote from: HairTrigger on April 30, 2012, 04:09:41 PMA lot has gone on with the elders None of the songs are written down, they are all handed down by learning them Native culture has always been passed down by oral tradition. The stories, songs and legends stayed intact because the native cultures did not have a written language. When you don't have writing, you have to exercise your memory on a daily basis. Early white American biographers were always astounded at native people's ability to recall vividly with such detail hundreds and hundreds of stories. As written language was introduced to those cultures, the memories began to fade. That is why it is so hard to compile histories from the native perspective. Many of the stories have been passed down, but the current generation (and I am speaking of the current generation of elders) are unable to recall them with the exactness that they were told.
