Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Traditions of the Skidi Pawnee In an ordinary sized lodge there would be from eight to ten such platforms on each side. These were separated, one from another, by means of willow mats, made of slender decorticated rods, bound to gether by means of sinew passing through their centres. Projecting from the rafters, and falling down, when unrolled, to the level of each bed, were additional willow mats, corresponding in construction, though not in shape, to the so-called lean-back of other Plains tribes. In former times, a game was in vogue among the boys some what similar to the so-called snow-snake, common in the central region of the United States. The prize in this game was the javelin itself and when an individual had won a sufficient number of these long willow javelins they were made up into a mat for him by his grandmother. The places of honor, and consequently the beds of honor in the lodge, were those on each side of and nearest to the altar. These were occupied by the older children. Next were the beds of the uncles or the aunts, while those next in the series were used by the parents, and those nearest the entrance by the old people of the lodge. At times ten or more families occupied a Single lodge, all, of course, being closely related. Just inside the lodge and to the north of the entrance was built, in winter, the sweat lodge, while at the corresponding position on the south side was an excavation used as a storage cellar for provisions, such as corn and meat, intended for service in the near future. The surplus stock of provisions was cached in excavations generally out side and to the north of the lodge. Just north of the area occupied by the sweat-lodge was reserved a space for the corn mill, which may be regarded as a permanent fixture within the lodge, and which con sisted of a hackberry log firmly implanted in the ground and hollowed in its upper half. The corn was crushed by means of a long pestle of the same material, the upper end of which was large, with its lower end terminating in a rounded point.

One of the sacred altars of the Pawnee. Trans. Int. Cong. of Ameri-canists, pp. 67-74, 1902. 3. How the Pawnee captured the Cheyenne medicine arrows. Am. Anth. (n. s.), vol. v, pp. 644-658. 4.

Part I of the mythology here presented contains the tales of the Kitkehahki, Pitahauirat, and Chaui bands of Pawnee, as well as a few miscellaneous Skidi tales, and completes the work of recording the traditions of the Caddoan tribes; it will be followed by Part II, in which will be presented the music which belongs to certain tales of this memoir, and which will give the results of a comparative study of the tales of the various tribes of this stock, both among themselves and with the tales of other tribes of North America. The share of the work performed by Mr. James R. Murie has been as great in this present volume as in previous volumes, and without his keen interest and untiring patience the production of the memoir would not have been possible.
