PROGRAM TRANSCRIPT (excerpt): NATIVE AMERICANS & THE SEA
CRONKITE: Native people in Connecticut from the earliest days looked to the sea for sustenance, transportation and culture.
MELISSA FAWCETT (Dir., Mohegan Tribal Museum Authority): In the beginning, we believe that the earth came out of the sea upon the back of grandfather turtle, Guganous Tuapas, great sea turtle. Since that time we’ve looked upon the turtle and the sea as the birth and origin of our beginnings and the grandfather turtle as the most sacred of all beings.
