I’ve dived into the lore of supposed extraterrestrial encounters for quite some time. I find it fascinating how thousands of stories can corroborate with each other, and I find encounters with supposed extraterrestrials, although they cannot be verified, to be a critical part of anybody’s investigation if they want to have a broader perspective of the UFO/UAP phenomenon.
One area of interest for me is stories from the lore of Indigenous people around the world, be it stories from the past or more modern-day encounters that Native Americans have had, for example.

Richard Wagamese, a well-known Ojibway author and journalist from the Wabaseemoong Independent Nations in Northwestern Ontario, Canada once wrote,
“My people tell of Star People who came to us many generations ago. The Star people brought spiritual teachings and stories and maps of the cosmos and they offered these freely. They were kind, and loving and set a great example. When they left us, my people say there was a loneliness like no other.
Dr Ardy Sixkiller Clarke, a Professor Emeritus at Montana State University who is Cherokee/Choctaw has been researching the Star People and collecting encounters between them and Native Indians for many years. In her book, “Encounters With Star People, Untold Stories of American Indians” she details many of these stories and explains how her fascination with Star People came from stories told to her by her older relatives like her grandmother when she was a child.
The book is filled with many interesting encounters. I’ve shared multiple stories from her work with our readers. In one of the chapters, she describes a story told to her by an Alaskan Native who apparently “came upon an alien in the middle of the road during a blizzard. True to the Alaskan code of honour, he invited the alien to join him in his vehicle for fear he would freeze in the 70-degree below zero night.”
His name was Ross (the Alaskan Native), and he had heard about Clarke and how she collects stories about extraterrestrials and UFOs from Indian people.
They met at a restaurant, and Ross told Clarke his story.
Ross operated a snowplough for a living, and on the night of his encounter he was working a 50-mile stretch during a terrible snowstorm where visibility was almost zero, and the temperature with the wind chill hovered at nearly 70 below.
