Topical term added 28/3/2007Religion - Dreaming should be used to cover all accounts, rituals and places related to the revealed nature of the particular Dreaming entity or a revelation from an entity. The context should make this reasonably clear but use both Religion - Dreaming and Stories and motifs if necessary
Topical term modified 29/1/2007Stories and motifs should be used for more general stories which are either related to ordinary events not associated with Dreamings in the telling or tales for children which work more as moral tales than revealed presence of the ancestor. However, better to also code with Religion - Dreaming as well in the latter case but not the former
