Objective(s): To collect data on the relationship between the names & physical likeness through interviews of Elders and young people.
Project Description: I will collect data on the relationship between the names and physical likeness. I will interview elders and young people about their names, names of their relatives, and if physical resemblances links one of their family members to another. This follows a theory about the relationship between names and physical likeness in members on the same family group.
