| Abstract: |
The origin and history of indigenous populations
before their supposed âdiscoveryâ
by exploring civilizations the world over,
largely remain unknown. Indigenous cultures
believe in totemistic tales of creation
that are verbally passed down across
generations. Moreover, written languages
are non-existent for most of these populations.
Their history is, therefore, often
subject to conjecture, on the one hand,
and scientific debate, on the other. |
