Anguyiim Nalliini/Time of Warring by Ann Fienup-Riordan PDF Summary

Book Description: In this powerful new book, long time Yup'ik researcher Ann Fienup-Riordan teams again with Alice Rearden to bring a long-ignored oral history of warfare to light. Time of Warring combines Yup'ik oral accounts and written records to understand the dramatic history of the bow-and-arrow wars fought in southwest Alaska between 1300 and 1800 AD. Yet warfare is not the only story being told. The book also explores the cultural history of violence, retribution, and ultimately peaceful coexistence. These narratives reveal the origins of place names and architectural practices in their cultural and historical context. And great warriors and heroic women of the past are revealed and discussed. The book represents thirty years of research, discussions, and recordings with over one hundred Yup'ik men and omen--elder historians of the highest caliber. After extensive summary and contextualization from Fienup-Riordan, facing-page translations give the Yup'ik elders and culture bearers the space to tell the stories in their own words. Time of Warring is an important chapter that has long been missing in the history of the Yukon-Kuskokwim Delta's people.
