Traditional Resource Management

Does anyone seriously think cultural anthropology or ethnography can contribute to the protection of domestic cultural and natural resources? Can the field really help preservation agencies identify natural places or sites and structures that have been, and still are, pivotal to the viability of American cultures, including Native American? Can cultural anthropologists actually analyze and explain traditional resource management systems so that conservation agencies understand them and their long-term effects on the habitat? Perhaps anthropologists are prepared to act on the view that it is both possible and desirable to address cultural resource management from a holistic perspective which, as Kealiinohomoku discussed (PA 9 [4], 1987), would bring ethnographic data and methods to bear on relationships between cultural systems, their carriers, and the materials they produce?
