(Huron Herbert) 1883 1933 32020121 Ethnobotany of the Ojibwe Indians Produced by Betsie Bush, David Edwards, Raymond Bush, and the Online Distributed Proofreading Team at http://www.pgdp.net "Ethnobotany of the Ojibwe Indians" by Huron H. Smith is a scientific publication written in the early 20th century. This work explores the use of native and introduced plants by the Ojibwe people, documenting their medicinal, dietary, and practical applications. It emphasizes the importance of traditional knowledge regarding plant use among the Ojibwe, particularly as this knowledge is at risk of being lost over time. The opening of the text introduces readers to the purpose and methodology behind Smith's ethnobotanical survey of the Ojibwe. The author notes that the fieldwork was conducted over multiple trips to various reservations in Wisconsin and Minnesota, engaging with older Ojibwe community members to gather their traditional plant knowledge. Smith reflects on the significance of this information, particularly given the decline in customary practices and the mortality of many elder informants. The narrative also delves into aspects of Ojibwe culture, illustrating how deeply intertwined their understanding of plants is with their spiritual beliefs and societal traditions.
