NENAI 2010 Herbal Calendar and Resource Guide!

HERBS, HEALING & HISTORY

The New England Native American Institute is pleased to present our calendar for 2010!

In this calendar the New England Native American Institute pays tribute to the Native American wealth of herbal healing knowledge transmitted over hundreds of years through initiation, ceremony and oral tradition. Each month features a beautifully illustrated native herb by NENAI's own artistic Joyce Heywood, with an accounting of its usage. In recognition of Gladys Tantaquidgeon, who was the Mohegan Medicine Woman, herbalist, and anthropologist from Connecticut, living 106 years, we have chosen to use the Mohegan language for days and months, as well as some vocabulary words.

A brief historical overview narrates the herbal and plant practices and procedures. Interlaced throughout the calendar are colored photos of various herbs in their flowering stages used by Native people. This 8.5 X 11 calendar is designed to be hung on the wall and makes a great gift item.

Resource information includes:

Mohegan language
A listing of books and web sites for usage of medicinal herbs
Listings of New England area museums with Native collections
New England tribal groups with their addresses and contacts
Descriptive information about the featured herb in each month
Native words of wisdom
Moon cycles, holidays, and other significant days
