In the Spirit of Seatco
Seatco is a nineteenth century term from the
Chinook Jargon, the one-time trade language of the
Pacific Northwest. Indians described the Seatco as
a mysterious tribe of Indians that possessed puzzling powers... among
which was their ability to kill game with hypnotic power and their
ability to turn invisible. Since the 1920s, modern society
has disregarded Indian wisdom about the Seatco as
superstition and myth, coinciding with the rise of mechanism and
reductionism and the defeat of vitalism in institutional science.
Institutional science has found no place for the Seatco
(known today as the Sasquatch).. After 50 years of cursory
interest, institutional science has acquired no hard evidence that they
exist. However, the places the Indians said they
lived still exist. Explore the location of over 4000 early
place names and embark on a quest to find out if the Seatco are still
there. Accompany the author as he seeks to understand the
puzzling powers of the Seatco... exploring the possible connections
between science and spirituality... between Indian wisdom and the
discarded 19th century idea of “field lines” as well as the
long abandoned scientific school of thought named vitalism”.
Learn about a possible explanation for the puzzling
powers of the Seatco using the 19th century theories of Faraday,
Maxwell, Tesla, and the vitalists. Journey across North
America
and learn how extrordinary proof of their theories awaits discovery in
the high and lonely realm of the Seatco.
