| 520 | |aThis report takes issue with previous interpretations of the eighteenth-century treaties. These analyses have been more willing to understand the texts within the context outlined by English documentation than is either justified by the quality of the source materials or the profound cultural differences separating the signing parties. If we are to understand how aboriginal peoples understood treaty texts, then we must attempt as best we can, to understand their societies and their concepts of treaty making. Such a task is not one that can be accomplished by this report. Nor is it one that might be done by one individual. Rather, it is an enterprise that crosses communities and disciplines. The purpose of this report is therefore more modest, providing an alternative context in which to understand the treaties than has hitherto been offered. Perhaps, the ensuing debate will illuminate more clarity to an area of research which for too long has been ignored. |
