Описание: Eagle Down Is Our Law is about the struggle of the Witsuwiten peoples to establish the meaning of aboriginal rights. With the neighbouring Gitksan, the Witsuwiten launched a major land claims court case asking for the ownership and jurisdiction of 55,000 square kilometers of land in north-central British Columbia that they claim to have held since before the arrival of the Europeans. In conjunction with that court case, the Gitksan and Witsuwiten asked a number of expert witnesses, among them Antonia Mills, an anthropologist, to prepare reports on their behalf. Her report, which instructs the judge in the case on the laws, feasts, and institutions of the Witsuwiten, is presented here. Her testimony is based on two years of participant observation with the Witsuwiten peoples and on her reading of the anthropological, historic, archaeological, and linguistic data about the Witsuwiten.
