Sawerigading In Strange Places: The I La Galigo Myth In Central Sulawesi, Jennifer W. Nourse Jan 1998

Sawerigading In Strange Places: The I La Galigo Myth In Central Sulawesi, Jennifer W. Nourse

Sociology and Anthropology Faculty Publications

In this chapter I present an alternative response to Sawerigading. Among the Central Sulawesi Lauje who live in the Kecamatan Tinombo on the Tomini Bay, Sawerigading is not a Bugis hero, but a native son. In what follows I explore his transformation from Bugis into local Lauje hero and what this transformation reveals about the extent of Bugis influence in a Central Sulawesi coastal kingdom which is at the political periphery of South Sulawesi.

The Ufo Contact Movement From The 1950'S To The Present, Christoper Bader Jan 1995

The Ufo Contact Movement From The 1950'S To The Present, Christoper Bader

Sociology Faculty Articles and Research

"Since the beginning of the UFO movement in the late 1940s, beliefs about what the aliens are like and the purpose of their visits to Earth have changed numerous times. The first claims of extended contact with alien beings in the early 1950s were entirely different in form and content from the current, frightening UFO abduction tales. This article will trace the UFO movement from its origin in 1947 to the present, explaining how its prevailing paradigms have changed."
