Folklore operates as a dynamic repository of indigenous knowledge, shaping and preserving collective wisdom through oral traditions, rituals, performances, and everyday practices. Unlike formalized knowledge systems that rely heavily on written texts and institutional validation, folklore is embedded in lived experiences and transmitted across generations through memory, imitation, and participation. It encompasses myths, legends, folktales, proverbs, songs, dances, crafts, and customary practices, all of which encode a community’s understanding of the natural world, social organization, morality, and spirituality. In this sense, folklore functions as a vital epistemic system that not only conserves knowledge but also continually regenerates it in response to changing contexts. The role of folklore as indigenous knowledge becomes particularly evident when examined through the lens of canon formation. Traditionally, the canon has been associated with authoritative texts and elite cultural productions, often privileging written literature and marginalizing oral traditions. However, folklore challenges this hierarchy by asserting the legitimacy of alternative canons rooted in community practices and collective authorship. Indigenous folklore resists fixed textualization and instead remains fluid, allowing for variations _______ ______ _________ _____ ______ ___ _____ ___ _____.
