Abstract
In many indigenous communities, we are taught that the land remembers us. We are reminded that the stones carry memory, that minerals hold stories, and that what comes from the earth must be met with responsibility and respect. These teachings are often treated as indigenous wisdom, but they are also economic instructions—guides for how to shape systems that honor place rather than exploit it.
