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.

Yeah I have heard that too. I think it might have been reclaimed but I am unsure. Nevertheless, a good reason to not use it.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

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.
