In a message dated 96-07-17 11:39:14 EDT, you write:
<< Yes, it is a redistribution of wealth as you describe, but I also have
video of potlatchs done in the late 1800's - early 1900's, as well as
interviews with elders, which show/describe much destruction of the
"Wealth goodes" as well. I did a major research paper on this when I
was in college as my degrees are in Anthropology / Archaeology and
Computer Science. I can provide citations, if you like. >>
Gawain,
My goal was not to agrue with you, but to bring out an aspect of the
potlactch that would be a possible inspiration for ideas concerning
interkingdom wars and peaces. Lighten up, my good man, none here mean harm.
