I. Introduction Native American Religions, beliefs, behaviors, and attitudes of the indigenous peoples of North America concerning the spiritual forces of the cosmos. These beliefs, behaviors, and attitudes remained an integral part of aboriginal North American culture from the Stone Age (30,000 BC-2500 BC) through the end of the 19th century, when the European settlement of North America was completed. Beginning in the mid-20th century, Native American religions underwent a revival, particularly among the Plains peoples. (For additional information on Native American cultures, see Native Americans
II. Origins and Development
In the 16th and 17th centuries, when the first European explorers and missionaries began to document the religious patterns of indigenous North America, they were confronted with cultures that had remained unaffected by developments in the civilizations of Europe and Asia. In particular, certain archaic religious characteristics were prevalent among the peoples of North America—namely, a preoccupation with the cycles of nature; a belief in the animate quality of all beings; the use of various techniques believed to control cosmic powers for personal and communal benefit; an emphasis on kinship as the metaphor for religious relations; a reliance on

FIRST PEOPLES AND NATIVE TRADITIONS
The First Peoples in the Fourth World
NOTE: Texts and quotations by Julian Burger and the indigenous peoples are used with permission of *The Gaia Atlas of First Peoples: A Future for the Indigenous World,* by Julian Burger with campaigning groups and native peoples worldwide. (London: Gaia Books Ltd, 1990. Some of what follows was written by representatives of indigenous peoples; some was provided by non-indigenous people.
Julian Burger explains that there is no universally agreed name for the peoples he describes as first peoples:
"... because their ancestors were the original inhabitants of the lands, since colonized by foreigners. Many territories continue to be so invaded. The book also calls them indigenous, a term widely accepted by the peoples themselves, and now adopted by the United Nations." (BURGER, p.16)
`Fourth World' is a term used by the World Council of Indigenous Peoples to distinguish the way of life of indigenous peoples from those of the First (highly industrialized), Second (Socialist bloc) and Third (developing) worlds. The First, Second and Third Worlds believe that `the land belongs to the people'; the Fourth World believes that `the people belong to the land. (BURGER, p.18)

Studying Indigenous Religions
Overview of Key Elements
4 HIEROPHANIC NATURE Versluis explains hierophany as meaning ‘spiritual revelation.’ There are many different examples of hierophany among the Native American tribes, however, all Indian cultures share the common belief that nature is informed by spiritual powers. Versluis states that, “There are certain animals, landforms, and other manifestations of nature that embody spiritual significance for tribal peoples across almost the entire length and breadth of the Americas.” (See p. 33)
Nature as a Spiritual Being
To begin to understand nature as a spiritual being, we must first understand what nature is to the Native American cultures. Versluis describes nature as “the theatre in which the spirit realms and the human world intersect.” (See p. 35) In Native American traditions, there are specific things in nature that have a special spiritual significance such as: the eagle, crow, owl, hawk, muskrat, otter, deer, buffalo, the mountains, rivers, bluffs, and rocks, to name a few. Native Americans believe that these aspects in nature are not only spiritually significant, but that they are truly the spiritual beings themselves.

The Sacred and the Profane
Should climbers Just Say No to climbing at "sacred sites"?
By Sam Davidson, Access Fund Executive Director
Climbers are presently in a sort of Catch-22, a no-win situation where even our best and most compassionate efforts are causing our reputation to suffer. I refer to the rising incidence of conflict between climbers and Native Americans over "sacred sites." This issue isn't new. Climbing has been illegal for decades on such formations as the Totem Pole and Spider Rock (on the Navajo reservation), and perhaps to our collective discredit, we have climbed these formations anyway, savoring the experience the more because we were sampling forbidden fruit. Native Americans who live by "traditional ways" increasingly feel climbing desecrates their religious beliefs, and disrupts their religious ceremonies. Climbers are asked, How would you feel if we climbed on your churches while you were praying on Sunday mornings? This question is easy to answer, especially since many climbers, in their own way, consider our boulders, crags and mountains holy places, and we certainly have acted to preserve the qualities that make them special for us.
