Abstract

For indigenous peoples, lands and seas are interconnected. The seas and coastal areas are not only culturally and economically important, but also have deep spiritual significance. Often the sea and marine species are considered ancestors. Coastal indigenous peoples still practise ceremonies, and use sea water and marine life for medicinal purposes, navigation and many other purposes.
