North American Indians Believe in Reincarnation

I didn’t know that Native North Americans had a tradition of belief in reincarnation. However, that’s what a research paper from the University of Nebraska – Lincoln describes.  

Amerindian Rebirth is both a major collection of essays and probably the best current reference work on Native North American beliefs about reincarnation.

Unfortunately, although the summary contains what appears to be a link to download the article, the link is not live. Therefore, I could only see the summary which says that most of the research of the Native American beliefs on reincarnation were conducted on mainly West Coast peoples focusing mainly on the arctic, western subarctic, and Pacific Northwest.

I would imagine this would be a very interesting and well-worth-reading paper!
