Book Myths of the Cherokee  Classic Reprint

Download or read book Myths of the Cherokee Classic Reprint written by James Mooney and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-11-22 with total page 624 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Myths of the Cherokee For this and other reasons much the greater portion of the material herein contained has been procured among the East Cherokee living upon the Qualla reservation in western North Carolina and in various detached settlements between the reservation and the Tennessee line. This has been supplemented-with information obtained in the Cherokee Nation in Indian Territory, chiefly from old men and women who had emigrated from what is now Tennessee and Georgia, and who consequently had a better local knowledge Of these sections, as well as of the history Of the western Nation, than is possessed bv their kindred in Carolina. The historical matter and the parallels are, of course, collated chiefly from printed sources, but the myths proper, with but few exceptions, are from original investigation. The historical sketch must be understood as distinctly a sketch, not a detailed narrative, for which there is not space in the present paper. The Cherokee have made deep impress upon the history of the southern states, and no more has been attempted here than to give the leading facts in connected sequence. As the history Of the Nation after the removal to the West and the reorganization in Indian Territory pre sents but few points of ethnologic interest, it has been but briefly treated. On the other hand the affairs of the eastern band have been discussed at some length, for the reason that so little concerning this remnant is to be found in print.

Book excerpt: The myths, beliefs, and customs of the Cherokees remain illustrative and interesting even today. Cherokee mythology has been recognized as a creative amalgamation of the physical world with the mythical one. This is quite evident in the creation and spiritual tales that we read throughout this book. The Cherokees have been devout worshippers of the Creator, Unetlanvhi, who is their main god. They are still proud of their mythology and wish to keep it alive for generations to come. Today, the sovereign Cherokee Nation has formed communities to promote their culture and keep their native history alive. Since the significance of tribal culture and myths is fading away over time, Native Americans are trying to pass the information to the new generations.
