Homins are hair-covered, humanlike beings purported to exist in oral and written literature across time and space. While traditional world mythology and folklore tend to take seriously the existence of entities like Sasquatch, mainstream Western culture often portrays such beings as misidentifications, hoaxes, or projections of the human mind. The result is a collective attitude that degrades, denies, or attempts to debunk the homin phenomenon.
As a fresh take on that problem, this book focuses on how memory, anxiety, and trauma may play a role in such negative perceptions of these hairy others. Specifically, the text proposes that persisting memory of anxiety-provoking contact between humans and homins is at the heart of the matter. Drawing from oral history, published scholarship, citizen science, and more, this volume examines evidence, concepts, and hypotheses regarding the presence of homins as well as the effects of these entities on human psychology.
