Really need white anthopologists, archaeologists, and historians to stop referring to religious people in W. Europe as 'shamans'. Stop using Indigenous terminology like that. It's irresponsible and inaccurate.

As far as I know it's a problematic term in general as it simplifies complex social statuses. That's what I've heard from some Indigenous scholars - not an expert

I think you hit the nail on the head that our Indigenous colleagues/scholars should be taking the lead on how to use the term appropriately.

Absolutely. My knowledge on the term has largely been on Indigenous people online saying that white neo-pagans need to stop calling themselves shamans, and I am interested on reading more on what they have to say.
