Introduction to the Study of Sociology among the North American Indians.

The mortuary customs of savage or barbaric people have a deep significance from the fact that in them are revealed much of the philosophy of the people by Whom they are practiced. Early beliefs concerning the nature of human existence in life and after death, and the relations Of the living to the dead, are recorded in these customs. The mystery concerning the future; love for the departed who were loved While here; reverence for the wise and good who may after death be Wiser and better; hatred and fear Of those who were enemies here and may have added powers of enmity in the hereafter - all these and like considerations have led in every tribe to a body of customs Of exceeding interest as revealing the Opinions, the philosophy of the people themselves.
