In a world grappling with environmental degradation, cultural homogenization, and social inequality, the resilience of foraging cultures offers a beacon of hope and inspiration. This book takes readers on a captivating journey into the lives of contemporary foragers, revealing their unique perspectives, their unwavering commitment to tradition, and their ongoing struggles for survival and recognition.

Through a blend of storytelling, research, and analysis, this book explores the intricate relationship between foraging cultures, their environment, and their cultural heritage.

Yet, despite these challenges, foraging cultures have demonstrated remarkable resilience, adapting their traditional practices to changing circumstances while preserving their cultural identity and values.

Readers will encounter diverse communities of foragers from around the world, each with their own unique traditions, beliefs, and practices. They will learn about the importance of land and territory to these communities, the role of elders in preserving cultural knowledge, and the significance of community cooperation and reciprocity. They will also gain insights into the economic strategies and livelihoods of foragers, their artistic expressions and cultural traditions, and their political and governance systems.

It highlights the urgent need to recognize and respect the rights of indigenous peoples to their traditional territories and cultural practices. It advocates for the preservation of cultural diversity and the incorporation of traditional knowledge into modern education and environmental conservation efforts.

By bringing the stories of resilient foragers to a wider audience, this book seeks to inspire readers to embrace cultural diversity, respect the rights of indigenous peoples, and work towards a more just and sustainable future for all.

The Buried City - Unearthing the...

Gabriel Zuchtriegel, Jamie Bulloch

The director of the Pompeii Archaeological Park offers a vivid view of daily life in the lost city, shares the latest discoveries, and reflects on preserving heritage. In The Buried City, Gabriel Zuchtriegel takes us on a behind-the-scenes tour of Pompeii and reveals new archaeological finds that are being unearthed at the site’s biggest dig in a generation. As director of the Pompeii Archaeological Park, Zuchtriegel presents a uniquely intimate perspective on this city that was tragically destroyed and frozen in time by the eruption of Mount Vesuvius in 79 CE. Among the ruins, we find unmade beds, dishes left drying, and bodies of victims encased in ash, but Zuchtriegel shows that we’ve only begun to understand this fascinating place, as a third of the site remains unexcavated. Zuchtriegel leads us into the heart of the city, reconstructing Pompeii as it would have been, showing us who lived there, what mattered to them, and what happened in their final hours. The Buried City reveals the latest discoveries unearthed at Pompeii—including a banquet hall with murals of Greek gods, a fresco of what appears to be a pizza, and the remains of individuals crushed by debris—all buried for almost two thousand years. Zuchtriegel offers a vivid portrait of this World Heritage site as a vibrant and diverse city, connecting us to a past that is much closer than we think and inviting us to reflect on our role as keepers of the site and its history.

Witness to Roswell 75th...

Thomas Carey, Donald Schmitt

"When I finished Witness to Roswell, I said to myself, 'Case closed!' for the very wealth and sheer weight of eyewitness testimony."—George Noory, host, Coast to Coast AM This classic in the field of UFOology is filled with hard-hitting eyewitness testimony of one of the most important events of all time: the actual recovery of a UFO outside of Roswell, New Mexico, in 1947. For more than 70 years, government authorities have led us to believe the wreckage was merely a very conventional weather balloon—but the witnesses who were there continue to tell a different story.Witness to Roswell once again provides a "can't put down" written account of what really transpired in Roswell decades ago. It pries loose the truth the government doesn't want us to know including the revelations of Walter Haut. This edition includes: •A growing litany of deathbed confessions describing the "little people" recovered at the crash site.•The most comprehensive time line of events ever published on this seminal event.•The identity of the Boeing engineer called in to examine the exotic wreckage from the crash.•What really took place at the Roswell base hospital and what nurse actually ordered the children's caskets.•The story of the soldier who wore gloves at the dinner table after guarding the "bodies."Clearly, the implications of this information are foreboding. One need only look at the fact that officials now have four explanations for this historic event—but to which one do all the witnesses testify on their deathbeds?Witness to Roswell once again demonstrates to the world that no statute of limitation applies to the truth: We are not alone. This anniversary edition includes a new introduction by the authors and additional material.
