我们与Iskatewizaagegan(Anishinaabe)长老合作，创建了他们植物知识的整体表示法，以及更标准的民族植物学分类系统。为了理解老年人选择的整体方法来代表他们的植物知识，有必要理解植物知识的本体论、认识论和现象学。这是通过对2000年和2001年收集的民族植物学数据的检查来探索的，作为一个包括分类、命名和鉴定过程的分类系统。总之，我们建议老年人强调整体的民族植物学，因为他们相信植物知识存在于一个地方的植物中，以及那个地方的人与植物之间的关系。由此得出的结论是，随着时间的推移和世代之间，知识永久化的一个关键因素是通过陆上活动不断建立关系。
We worked with Iskatewizaagegan (Anishinaabe) elders to create a holistic representation of their plant knowledge as well as a more standard ethnobotanical system of classification. In order to understand the holistic approach, chosen by elders to represent their plant knowledge, it was necessary to understand the ontology, epistemology and phenomenology of plant knowledge. This is explored through an examination of the ethnobotanical data, collected in 2000 and 2001, as a system of classification that includes the processes of classification, nomenclature, and identification. In conclusion, we propose that elders emphasize a holistic ethnobotany since they believe plant knowledge resides in the plants of a place and the relationships between persons and plants of that place. This leads to the conclusion that a critical factor in perpetuating knowledge over time, and between generations, is the ongoing creation of relationships through land-based activities.
