Coastal Cascadia Oral Histories Source locations of accounts of earthquake-tsunami stories. Recorded (Ludwin et al 2005)

Coastal Cascadia Oral Histories Oral-history-estimated event time of 1690 AD Tree-ring & Japanese-record estimated event time of January , 9 pm

Run to High Ground

Langi village, Simeulue Island, Indian Ocean Account by tsunami geologist, Lori Dengler of Cal State Humboldt

Thoughts & ideas Mythic stories: Timeless/long-term region-wide stories that describe a restless earth and ocean Oral histories: Accounts that record specific event/s (sometimes centuries-old) Preparedness: Strong advice on how to live more safely in a geologically active region

Thoughts & ideas Stories and histories in many cases belong to the teller. Consideration and respect should be exercised in repeating stories. Native American cultures are very grounded in Place. Ex. “These lands are vital not only to our subsistence but also to our sense of being as Tlingit people.” (Gabriel George, 2008) Attributes of indigenous ways of knowing nature: place- based, non/material world are one, relational, mysterious (all is not knowable), observational not experimentational, cyclical time.
