Eugene Hunn (PhD 1973, UC Berkeley)
Research Interests:
Ethnobiology, cultural ecology, cognitive anthropology, language and culture;
Native North/Middle America
"My primary research focus now is Sierra SurZapotecEthnobiology, Oaxaca, Mexico. Besides documenting traditional environmental knowledge for
the MixtepecZapotec language, I study how
children learn what they know about their natural environment as well as how
the community's knowledge base is changing as a result of engagement with the
market economy. I also continue my Sahaptinethnogeographic research with Indian tribes of the Columbia Plateau
region of the Pacific Northwest and have been involved in several contract
studies for the National Park Service with respect to subsistence uses of
federal lands."
