These ailments do not remain confined to one moment in time. As epigenetics proposes, stress can become encoded in the body. When modern Indians face the same pressures as did their ancestors, the chances increase that age-old afflictions will persist. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: Article src: R language: English refInfo: copyright: @attributes: flag: Y custom: Copyright of American Indian Quarterly is the property of University of Nebraska Press and its content may not be copied or emailed to multiple sites without the copyright holder's express written permission.
