Coyote knew what was done. The old woman1 was told: "Now you sing!" Then, while the dancing was going on, they sang--"Try to get good luck out of Coyote's, Coyote's eyes!" The old woman sang that which was said. She also said so. She 85 was not an old woman; she was Coyote. There was no light where they were dancing. The two girls were told: "Let the old woman stand up. Lead her. She is poor." Then the two girls made their grandmother stand up. They danced. They tried hard, because 90 the old woman was singing. They were glad. They danced for a longtime. Then the old woman said: "Let go what you sing about." They carried the eyes of Coyote. Then Coyote carried his eyes. They were dancing about. Then it was noticed that (the voice) of 95 the old woman was going down. She was almost out of breath. Almost they could hear her no more. Then she was heard singing by the doorway. Then she was not heard any more. They stopped, and did not dance any more. They said: "Bring a light! Look for the old woman! She may have died of fatigue." Light was made, Joo and they looked for the old woman. Then they saw the skin lying there. The old woman was gone. Only her skin remained. They heard Coyote some distance away. He laughed, and they said? "It was Coyote, it was not the old woman, who danced. Coyote killed her. It was only her skin." 105 Now I have told you what Coyote did to his eyes. 63. Coyote And Deer I'll tell you how Coyote made the Deer. There was a town. Long ago the Deer used to bite the people. They never went out hu...

Book Kutenai Tales  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Kutenai Tales Classic Reprint written by Franz Boas and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-09-16 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Kutenai Tales Amongthe texts collected by me, one was told by Pierre Andrew, a man about 33 years of age, who has a good command of English. He is not able, however, to interpret with any considerable degree of accuracy the grammatical forms of Kutenai, so that his own translation is always a rather free rendering of the Indian sentences. Two tales were told by Pierre Numa, an older man, who, however, spoke so rapidly that the tales had to be redictated by Pierre Andrew, who served as interpreter. Three other tales were told in the same way by Mission J oe, a man about 60 years old, whose dictation was repeated by Felix Andrew, a young man who speaks English Very well, but whose ability to interpret the Indian texts word by word was even less than that of Pierre Andrew. One tale was told by Felix Andrew himself and was recorded by Mr. Robert T. Aitken. The rest of the stories were told by Barnaby, a man about 60 years' of age, who, after Very short practice, learned to speak slowly and distinctly, and whose dictation was perfectly satisfact ory. All these tales were recorded without translation; and the translation was made later on, in part with the assistance of Pierre Andrew, in part with that of Felix Andrew. A11 my informants were Upper Kutenai, and the revision of Chamberlain's tales was also made by Upper Kutenai; so that the dialectic forms of the Lower Kutenai have probably disappeared. It is interesting to note that Barnaby refused to tell the Mosquito story (p. Because, as he said, it was proper for children, not for adults.

Book American Indian Trickster Tales

Download or read book American Indian Trickster Tales written by Richard Erdoes and published by Penguin. This book was released on 1999-03-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Of all the characters in myths and legends told around the world, it's the wily trickster who provides the real spark in the action, causing trouble wherever he goes. This figure shows up time and again in Native American folklore, where he takes many forms, from the irascible Coyote of the Southwest, to Iktomi, the amorphous spider man of the Lakota tribe. This dazzling collection of American Indian trickster tales, compiled by an eminent anthropologist and a master storyteller, serves as the perfect companion to their previous masterwork, American Indian Myths and Legends. American Indian Trickster Tales includes more than one hundred stories from sixty tribes--many recorded from living storytellers—which are illustrated with lively and evocative drawings. These entertaining tales can be read aloud and enjoyed by readers of any age, and will entrance folklorists, anthropologists, lovers of Native American literature, and fans of both Joseph Campbell and the Brothers Grimm.

Book Atlantis beneath the Ice

Download or read book Atlantis beneath the Ice written by Rand Flem-Ath and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2012-02-10 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Scientific and mythological evidence that Antarctica was once Atlantis • Reveals how the earth’s crust shifted in 9600 BCE, dragging Atlantis into the polar zone beneath miles of Antarctic ice • Examines ancient yet highly accurate maps, including the Piri Reis map of 1513, which reveals a pre-glacial Antarctica • Shows how myths of floods and disaster from around the world all point to a common source In this completely revised and expanded edition of When the Sky Fell, Rand and Rose Flem-Ath show that 12,000 years ago vast areas of Antarctica were free from ice and home to the kingdom of Atlantis, a proposition that also elegantly solves the mysteries of ice ages and mass extinctions, the simultaneous worldwide rise of agriculture, and the source of devastating prehistoric climate change. Expanding upon Charles Hapgood’s theory of earth crust displacement, which was championed by Albert Einstein, they examine ancient yet highly accurate world maps, including the Piri Reis map of 1513, and show how the earth’s crust shifted in 9600 BCE, dragging Atlantis into the polar zone where it now lies beneath miles of Antarctic ice. From the Cherokee, Haida, and Okanagan of North America to the earliest records of Egypt, Iran, Mexico, and Japan, they reveal that ancient myths of floods, lost island paradises, and visits from advanced godlike peoples from all corners of the globe all point to the same worldwide catastrophe that resulted in Atlantis’s demise. The authors explain how the remaining Atlanteans, amid massive earthquakes and epic floods, evacuated and spread throughout the world, resulting in the birth of the first known civilizations. Including rare material from the archives of Charles Hapgood, Albert Einstein, and Dwight D. Eisenhower, the Flem-Aths explain how an earth crust displacement could happen again in the future, perhaps in correspondence with high solar activity. With new scientific, genetic, and linguistic evidence in support of Antarctica as the location of long-lost Atlantis, this updated edition convincingly shows that Atlantis was not swallowed by the sea but was entombed beneath miles of polar ice.
