Cultural Narrative: 

Over an uninterrupted period of thousands of years, the Karuk people refined and developed their sophisticated land management practices. This was and remains true science: Native knowledge based on generations upon generations of experience with this land and their resources. The combination of ritual, spiritual and technical elements that sustained this ecosystem not only resulted in replenished food and fiber resources, it also served to consciously enhance and enrich the diversity of these systems.
