Tidbits

  • Protocol involves watching , listening and learning from others
  • Oral tradition is learning through observation
  • Aboriginal People believe that we are all related-the two legged share the planet with the four legged, the winged ones, the ones that crawl, the plants, the ones that swim, the rock and minerals, the earth and sky. We are all a part of the Circle of Life
  • Stories and legends share traditions and messages about how to live life properly
  • There is a very close connection between Aboriginal People and the earth and animals
  • Aboriginal Peoples used oral history to pass down information, as they did not use a formal writing style
