"people of the Eagle (those from the North) and
people of the Condor (those from the South)" (SWEETGRASS, p. 23).

The northern group, "the people of the Eagle," are now many peoples, tribes, and nations, and the continuing-longstanding homeland of the people of the Eagle is recently called North America.

The southern group, "the people of the Condor," are now many peoples, tribes, and nations, and the continuing-longstanding homeland of the people of the Condor is recently called South America.

The homelands of the peoples of the Eagle and Condor also include those lands and islands recently called Central America and the Carribean.

The Runa people are a Native American people at home in that part of the land of the Eagle presently called Mexico.
