Sivuqaghhmiit History and Culture: Values for Survival in aChanging World

该项目旨在研究阿拉斯加州圣劳伦斯岛西武卡克的爱斯基摩人尤皮克人的社会宗教历史。其目的是研究目前的宗教制度和1900年代基督教传入后发生的社会宗教变化。民族志、民族史学、口述史学和当代口述资料将被用来构建基于本土视角的民族志叙事，即所谓的主位视角。这项研究从理论和方法上借鉴了人类学家与人类主体的关系，以及原住民在研究过程中的参与。

This project is designed to study the socio-religious history of the Yup'ik Eskimos of Sivuqaq (St. Lawrence Island, Alaska). The goal is to study present religious systems and the socio-religious changes which took place following the introduction of Christianity in the 1900s. Ethnographical, ethnohistorical, oralhistorical and contemporary oral data will be used to construct an ethnographic narrative based on native perspectives, the so-called emic perspective. The study draws theoretically and methodologically on the relationship of the anthropologist to human subjects, and the participation of Native people in the research process.
