Teaching

Transmission of Law

Ayaawx and adaawx must be taught deliberately.

Law is not inherited through assumption or status. It is transmitted through intentional teaching and lived practice.

Teaching occurs through:

  • Story and adaawx that preserve legal memory
  • Participation in lawful conduct and decision-making
  • Observation of responsibility before authority
  • Correction when conduct departs from ayaawx
  • Repetition over time until understanding is stable

Elders, Sim’oogit, and house members share responsibility for teaching law. No single role carries this duty alone.

Learning is ongoing, contextual, and relational. Understanding deepens as responsibility increases.

Failure to teach correctly results in breaks in legal continuity.
