Field Work
Several interesting plant families were pinpointed that deserve further research because of their use for several diseases in several distant cultures. Plants closely related to qinghao from China were found in Guatemala, both used to treat Malaria, drawing interest to this group.

Theory
The ultimate goal of this research is to develop a formula that will give us a measure of the relative medical potential of each plant that will tell us for which plants it is more worth undertaking the lengthy process of exploring their phytochemistry and biological mechanism than all the other medicinal plants we have found. This is done by linking the three evolutionary trees or phylogenies of plants, cultures, and diseases (see Fig. 9). We assume that the less related two cultures are, the more likely their discovery of related plants to treat related diseases is an independent event and should increase the plants’ medical potential.

50 Common Native Plants Important In Florida's Ethnobotanical History

Introduction
Ethnobotany was probably first coined as a term in 1895 by one of Florida's early botanists, John Harshberger, and describes the study of the interaction between people, plants, and culture (Harshberger 1895). There are many components to ethnobotany, including food, fibre, medicine, shelter, fishing and hunting, religion, mythology, magic, and others. In this document we provide an introduction to ethnobotany in Florida and brief insight into the historical importance of some of Florida's plants to humans. We hope this document inspires readers to further investigate their region's ethnobotanical history. This information is not intended as a guide to using plants for medicinal or other purposes. Readers are warned that some of the most potent poisons known are derived directly from plants and that alleged ethnobotanical uses may be based on unsubstantiated information. Further, the use of plants for medicinal or other purposes may not be safe without proper preparation or dosage, and potential

Introduction to Tule Ethnobotany
by Norm Kidder
In many parts of the world tules, reeds, bulrushes and their relatives have been used by local groups as building material. The Egyptians used papyrus for paper and boats (more technically called balsas, or floats). A statue of King Tut shows him spearing hippos from a reed 'surfboard', while multi-ton slabs of stone are known to have been transported on large ocean going reed vessels. (See Thor Heyerdahl, the Ra Expeditions). Natives in other parts of Africa, the Marsh Arabs of Iraq, and Indians of South America, Mexico, and California also used the versatile reeds for watercraft. In this article I will stick to the uses of tule reeds by the Indian peoples of Central California and neighboring Nevada. Tule, seems to be both a general term for freshwater marshes and also for the sedges of the genus Scirpus. The term Tule Fog refers to moisture rising from the ground. The Spanish called the seasonally flooded center of the San Joaquin Valley the "tulares". In the San Francisco Bay area, the Common Tule is Scirpus acutus. This tule grows up to over 16 feet tall, has a round dark green stem, and only vestigial leaves. Its seed head is an open tassel normally 2 inches or less across. A similar looking relative, Scirpus californicus, or California Tri-square differs in having a lighter green and triangular stem, and a larger seed head. The tri-square also has a larger internal cell structure which makes it inferior for most construction purposes. A number of other species are found around the country, and may or may not prove suitable for making useable items.

Ethnobotany of the Middle Columbia River Native Americans
Intro Plant list Intro Patterns of subsistence Caretakers of the land ... Current issues and links
People have lived in Central Washington for over 12,500 years. Before contact with European cultures people lived in close proximity to the Columbia River, and journeyed up the valleys and into the Columbia Plateau for seasonal hunting and gathering trips. People lived in very small groups, made up of close family ties. These groups might have been composed of 2 to 15 people that travelled to hunting and gathering grounds together. As time went on the population of this area expanded and people began to form small bands, and occupy small villages. Tribal groups in this area include Salishan speaking people to the north- the Methow (Mitois, Chiliwists), Entiat (Sinialkumuhs, Point de Bois), Chelan (Tsill-anes) Wenatchee (Pisquows, Wenatchi), Sinkiuse (Kawachens, Moses Columbia, Isle des Pierres), and Shahaptian speaking groups to the south- the Wanapums (Sakulks) and the now extinct groups of Pshwahwapam and Mical. This area is thought to have sustained at least 20,000 to 30,000 Native Americans before infectious diseases, war, and the reservation system decimated the population.

  • Table 2 Acacia is the second largest genus in Australia comprising more than 700 species (Harden 1991; Morrison and Davies 1991) and occurs in almost all habitat types. Species range in size from small shrubs to large trees and are ecologically important as 'pioneer' species where they rapidly establish cover following major natural disturbances such as fire (Christensen et al. 1981). Acacia species are commonly known simply as acacias or as wattles and Acacia pycnantha has been adopted as the Australian national floral emblem. Wattles are frequently grown as ornamentals, some are harvested for timber, while others are a source of gums or bark used in various tanning processes. Like the majority of legumes, acacias utilize rhizobia to fix atmospheric nitrogen in the soil enabling them to grow in relatively poor soils (Harden 1991).
    BOTANY
    In Australia there are two commonly accepted schools of thought regarding the taxonomy of legumes (order Fabales) and their treatment varies with institution and state. For example, The Flora of Australia (George, 1981) recognizes three distinct families, Mimosaceae, Caesalpiniaceae, and Fabaceae while the Flora of New South Wales (Harden 1991) recognizes a single family, Fabaceae (sometimes still referred to as Leguminosae by some workers) with three subfamilies, Faboideae (or Papilionoideae), Caesalpinioideae, and Mimosoideae. There has also been some debate about the placement of Australian wattles in the genus

    Description
    Pinyon-Juniper woodlands (PJ) are a significant vegetation type in the Southwestern United States, covering approximately 30 million hectares. About 1/4 of New Mexico is covered by PJ, with the species Pinus edulis and Juniperus monosperma best represented (West 1975).
    Research Activities
    A. Application of theory of spatial phase transitions Percolation theory provides a formalism under which to identify critical densities of tree cover. Below the critical density, trees are distributed sparsely across the landscape. As the density approaches the critical density, larger and larger clusters of trees should be found, until massive clusters of trees dominate the landscape. Although the critical density is well known for simple random maps, it is not known for real landscapes created by non-random processes. We at the Milne Landscape Ecology Lab are applying the formalisms of percolation theory to Pinyon-Juniper woodlands and their interface with grasslands. We are developing a spatially-explicit database of woodlands, from USGS digital elevation models and aerial photographs. A sample extract from an aerial photo is shown above. We have a list of study sites for which we have obtained DEMs and aerial photos. In time we will make these data available to interested researchers. Please send requests for access to these data to pj@algodones.unm.edu. B. Modeling growth response

On four separate occasions, we went to Griffith Springs, Midgley Bridge, Sandy Canyon (in conjunction with the Florida Trails Association) and Kelly Canyon. These are all moister, cooler areas in canyons in the greater Flagstaff and Sedona areas. Phyllis started off each walk with a prayer and a blessing for the plants as we all stood in a circle. After the prayer, we appreciated our surroundings, walking in silence until we arrived at our first plant. People had fun (and got frustrated!) learning the scientific, Hopi, and Navajo names for plants. Phyllis talked about ancient and modern medicinal or food uses for each plant. We saw cool critters enjoying the plants, too, like lizards, a praying mantis, and different kinds of pollinators. Here are some photos from our walk Also Important to AREA...San Francisco Peaks still in Danger
