Indigenous Voices on the New England Trail

Levy's site survey of the NET takes many forms. He'll spend time in archives and libraries, examining primary documents. But a big part of the job is hiking the trail with Tribal elders from the Ojibwe, Pequot, Wampanoag, and Schaghticoke. Indigenous culture in the area is largely based in an oral tradition, so the direct involvement of leaders who know their Tribes' stories and pass them on is essential.
