Taking it Deeper:
Think about the questions below and respond to them in a thoughtful and organized paragraph in the discussion board.
1. What would the Ancient Native Americans/Anasazi think of any or all of these actions and why do you believe this?
2. If you have taken a pottery chard from the wilderness, or an arrowhead from your backyard would you have a different action next time based on your experience with Kokopelli's Flute and Native American Studies?
3. Can you make a connection between the Native Americans perspectives of ancient archaeological sites and Naturalists/Environmentalists perspectives of "Leave No Trace."
4. Do you agree with the ranger?

This is a trial. ml
Because if you dug up just one pot
it is only destroying one spot but if you take eighty pieces of pottery it is destroying eighty spots of the site.
I agree with the ranger,because destroying 80 areas is really bad but destroying 1 area is'nt so bad.it's like a puzzle piece, if youre missing one peace you can see the whole picture but if youre missing 80 pieces you can't really see the picture that well.JO
Because if you dug Mh
(1) Pot-hunters are ilegell and they take away artafacts and they are bad for Tep's family and the people who want to know what happend to the Anazazi.Tep did a bad thing but he helped his mom get better and he found kokopelli.
I think they would be angry with us for taking all of their things because it is almost like the anasazi is breaking in to your house and taking all of your expensive things. Mh
yes, I do think the ranger is right.People should respect that other people want to enjoy what is left of the Anasazi.If you think something is pretty,take a picture. That way,you will "have" it and other people can enjoy it,plus the anasazi will live on.
I think they would be upset for people taking their things because I know that I would absolutly hate it for all we know there could be graves underneath the ground. If I had "stolen" an artifact my action the next time I saw one would definetly change. The connection I have is they both would not like it because one it's illegal and two you could be digging up graves. And finally I do agree with the ranger with everything he said and did. Plus I wouldn't like it one bit if somebody vandaliesd a historical park. KB
If I found a pottery shard before i read Kokopelli's Flute I wouldn't have respected it. Yet now I would grately respect it and take great care of it.
I think that the Anasazi/Ancient poeple would angery.All you would be doing is taking away clues to where they went. You would also be taking away part of their life. What if somebody did that to you? How would you feel? -CM
(2) I would have a different reaction becase now I know that it's bad to do it so I will not do it.
(3)I can I've seen two people throw beer bottles on the ground at a park.
(4)I agree with the ranger and if she takes alot of shards she has alot of different clues but if she took one pot it will not be as much clues as 80 differentpots and 80 different clues.LM
I thiink the Anasazi might think that all of these actions people have done are a disgrace and they need to be punished in a way that they will never forget. Also,I have never taken a pottery chard but, if I see one i will pick it up study it and look at it and put it back where i had found it.I think one connection between the native americans perspective and a enviromentalists perspective is the are both the ideea of walkin a sacered place as if no one has walked there. I fully agree with the ranger that if you take a pottery chard it is like taking away from a jigsaw puzzle until you cant tell what the picture is.I agree because i would never take a pottery chard from someones sacered place i would study it and leave it. -CG
I think tha anasaza would be mad at us for taking all of their things because it is almost like them breaking into your house and taking all of your things.
i think that ranger is right because if you take only one piece of pottery then if you take eighty pieces of pottery wich would destroy eighty spots.
I think that we should treat the items with respect because if you take them you are destroying evidents of the past and present day.
I think the Nativ Americans would be horifiedthat we are taking pieces of the history of why they left.If you went on a nature walk,I think what ever you bring with you tha tit comes back out espichaly trash."live no trace".I agree with the range because taking 1 whole pot is not as bad as taking 80 diffret pieces of shards.ld
I think that the anasazi would think that thats there pottery shards . They dont want us to take things thats thiers because they were the ones that put it there . They dont want people
taking there stuff . It does make me more consernd when i find a piece in my backyard . the leave no trace makes me think of if there were saying dont litter in my backyard . To think that a grown up women would take 80 pieces from the canyon sites you take one piece it leaves a mystery now we have a hole gap to figuer out.IP
They would be furious beacause when they smashed those pots they did not think that 1,000 years later visitors would start stealing them.
Yes beacause now I realize how sacred they were to the Anasazi.
They both realize how sacred and speacial the land is.
Yes beacause if you dig up 1 whole pot it does not ruin as much as 80 shards does. J.L.L
I think that my actions would be different,because I wouldn't want to be the one who takes away ways of life and destroy clues to what happen to the Anasazi or even just their history. -CM
I think the indians are alittle upset because the indians spent all that time to include all the details and we are treating it like it is like a nickel. It will make me think about taking it because it may be there for a special reason and could hold hundreds of unknown secrets about the past.
I think the indians might have wanted poeple to know they were there so they would leave a trace.
I agree with the ranger because taking little pieces from a lot of places is like ripping little pieces of a huge puzzle and have no idea what the picture is or loose one piece and be able to see what your picture is of just lose a single cloud.
I think they would be angry, because we are robbing them.the objects are thiers! thier posessons should stay in the park or you will be a pothunter!it is stealing to take arifacts.jl
I think the indians. SR
I think that the Native Americans would be fine with the pottery being taken because they were supposed to be offerings.I would have diffrent actions next time because who knows how many people take from the woods.My connection is that they have to preserve nature or the artifacts no matter what.I agree with the ranger.A.P.
The "Leave no Trace" idea to me is if I have some friends over or if my brother is in my room I ask him/my friends not make a mess after I just cleaned my room up.So if my brother or friends leave a mess or take something I make sure they give it back or clean up my foom with me. -CM
I don't think they would have liked it because it was their offering. Now I won't ever miss place an artifact again because its theirs even if they are dead its not mine to keep. I can see them both saying leave no trace because we need to keep the earth clean even when the day comes when earth will die. Yes I agree with the ranger because then all clues will be lost.WR
I very much agree with the ranger,because you don't want be the one to tell the person who stole the potery shards to put them back. You also don't want to see all of these poeple taking apart the nation park while they think its okay when its really not. -CM
(1)If someone took all of my stuff iwould be mad they mite be died but i think they can see use take there stuff and that is mean to take other people's stuff.(2)If you took a artafict onse then it mite be o.k because it is half of your property and you can do any thing you want to your yard.Then if you read kokopilli's flute you mite be scared to take something that you mite think you are going to turn into a pack rat or some type of animal like a bear.But i think 2nd graders would think that you would turn into a bear or a animal.
(3)i think ''leave no trace'' means don't take stuff that's not your's if some catch's you you will be in trouble.If you touch a rock a alarm could go off.-ks
yes i do agreee with th ranger ifd some ome takes 80 pices that ruins 80 sights. if some one trys to put the pots toghter ther will be a lot of pices missing from the pot.
I agree with the ranger because....
a)If you scatered the pot shardes it would be like loosing a piece of paper in a papermill stack.And b)you would be ruining the historical area
Yes I would act diffrently in the wilderness but not in my back yard.I said this because I still think that if it is in your back yard it would be your property.
I think the Anasazi would have mixed feelings about it. I think some would be angry for disturbing thier offering. others would say it was the Kokopelli spirit that possesed him or her and laugh.
I think that the connection is that tey both beleve that you should prezerve the historical site.-NF
(1)I think the Anasazi would be sad because we took there sakrafices. (2)I will because now I know how they got thereand how special they are. (3)Yes when the anasazi left the ruins. (4)Yes because it is like taking some pices of a puzzle

Yes because if you take one pot the clue is already put together but if you take 80 pottery shards of every pot like it said it is nerly imposible to put the clue together.TM
I think the Ancient Native Americans/Anasazi think that all of these actions are disrespectful to the person who made the pot, the tribe, and the land. If I had taken a pottery shard from the wilderness, my actions would be different next time because now that I have read the text about the ranger, I would leave any artifact alone to let all see it. The artifacts are studied by archaeologists as clues to where the went and how they lived. Both Native Americans and Environmentalists agree to leave things where they are. I agree with the ranger because if you take alot of pottery shards it makes it harder for the archaeologists to match the pieces and clues. Hd
I think the Ancient Nativie Americans/Anasazi would be very mad and also sad because it is the wrong choice and people should know better. Each and every piece of pottery or arrow head was very special and made by someone long ago. So to them every piece should be left alone. I will have a different action next time I see a pottery chard or arrow head. I have always thought they were really neat and I have probaly taken a few. But after reading Kokopelli's Flute I feel diferent. They both have the same feeling of leaving things were they are. I agree with the ranger because taking hand fulls of pottery just makes it harder for scientests to build pots and learn about the past.
I think the Native Americans would think these actions were all really wrong. I think this beacuse they believe that there are spirits in these pots. When their ancestors died they believe that their spirits went into these pots. If someone took those it would be like taking away part of your family. After I had the learning with Kokopellis Flute I learned how much the Native Americans love those pots and how much they respect them so I would not like take those pots. Both Native Americans and Naturalists believe that you should leave things as they were. I agreed with the ranger that it was not right to take all of the shards, taking 80 shards is like taking 20 full pots. WM
I think that the Anasazi would disapprove of all of these actions because the pot-hunters are taking things that belong to someone else. I also think the Anasazi would also disapprove of Tep taking the bone flute because it belongs to one of their people. If I found a pottery shard or an arrowhead in the wilderness I'd have taken it, but now that I've read Kokopelli's Flute I'd have admired it, but left it alone. I can connect a Native Americans persctive and enviormetalists perspective of "leave no trace". It is like I go camping, and when I leave, I want to leave the place like I found it, and leave leaving no trace that I was there. I agree with the ranger because if you dig up one pot it does less damage than vandilizing an entire site and taking 80 pottery shards and stuffing them in your pockets and taking them with you. KS
I think that the Ancient Anasazi would be mad at the pot hunters but not Tep because Tep took the flute from curiosity the pot hunters took the artifacts for money and greed. I haven't ever taken a artifact but if I saw one I would get a picture and put it back. I believe that the conection between Native Americans perspective of ancient archaeological sites and Naturalists/Environmentalists prespective of leave no trace is that they are both saying if you take a pottery shard you are destroying something. I think the ranger is right because when you take lots of pottery shards it is impossible for you to put them back to make pot. MS
they believe There sprits on the pots and They can't take the pots away from the Native Americans.o.d
