The Footprints chapter is for telling stories concerning places and place names. These are the marks left on the landscape not only by those who came before, but in some cases by gods and supernatural beings as they travelled this land. But because of the relocation of the Chamorro people by the Spanish in the late 1600s, much of this place-based storytelling was lost, and today there is only one storied-place in Inarajan. But our guides have emphasized that despite this rupture, Chamorro culture carries on in other ways, including certain practices and certain values. Here we present these value- and tradition-based Footprints of the ancestors that remain imprinted on Inarajan today.
