Ed explain some of the past traditions practiced by the serri. Montor - canyon; The Serri would slide down a basal slope on a sea turtle carapace and see how far you could go without falling into the water. If you fell into the water you would be eaten by sharks. They used to live in pit houses and sometime would live out of a cave. They didn’t have any clothes, but wore stuff like loincloths. They hunted with bow and arrows. Dogs are a valued part of the family and are hunting companions. Serri people came from Tiburon to Isla San Esteban. They would use rafts to row to Isla and Tiburon for food and water, then row all the way back. During the 1500 or 1600 was the first contact the Serri had with white people. Their technology didn’t come up to par until pretty late last year. It’s much like stone age village and now they 're experiencing the modern world. The Mexican government wanted the serri gone because they were uncontrollable; they didn’t want to follow the rules. There was a mass killing upon the serri on this island. The Government couldn’t hide because they didn’t know the terrain and didn’t know any of the hiding places so most likely were killed or could not

    It is hypothesized that when fauna was killed by the Paleo-Indians the event was ceremonious, with social and symbolic significance in the family units (“Paleo-Indians”). Though, with more recent discoveries, it is thought that the Pre-Clovis communities were responsible for the extinction of megfauna in the area. This implies that paleo-humans hunted more frequently than for just ceremoniously. Research also suggests through the concept of uniformitarianism, that there were likely different roles for women and men in the community. Women would have gathered and taken care of the homestead whereas men would have hunted for food and guarded the area

  • Summary Of Isla By Virgil Alvarez

    In “Isla” by Virgil Suárez the author uses imagery and descriptive phrases to paint a picture of the pain an immigrant experiences in a world, described as an island, where they are unwanted and unwelcome (Kirszner & Mandell, 2012, p.679). The author’s use of descriptive phrases allows me to see the world as through the eyes of the young boy and I can see reality as the young boy believes it to be (JOLLIMORE, 2009). Just as the monster Godzilla would rise up against those determined to suppress his existence, an immigrant must rise up against oppression in an environment where he was not wanted (Kirszner & Mandell, 2012, p.679). Being an immigrant is likened to being on an island exiled away from all that is acceptable. “Isla” or island is
