Abstract
The analysis presented in this study draws from a theoretical framework that sees indigenous knowledge (IK) and discourse as important features of ethno–science publication in Namibia. The study aims to make a meaningful contribution to an ongoing debate about IK in Namibia and the world over; the use of IK in the construction of knowledge about ethno–science; analysis and exploration of IK. As such the study looks at the process of authenticating ethno – scientific argument, knowledge and skills, providing clear understanding of how IK is used to protect the environment
