BIO 260G - PII Ethnobotany

(Perspectives II Global course) This course focuses on the way native peoples incorporate the use of plants into their cultures. This includes exploration of plants as food, medicine, material goods and for spiritual enhancement. We will integrate botanical studies with aspects of plant use including indigenous cultures’ world views/cosmology, and how these world views impact healing practices, spiritual practices, and biological conservation with regard to plants. This would make a great Integrative Studies (IS) course. Course Codes: BR. Prereq: PEQ in Science or Social Science.
