This kind of original text of myth, along with translation is of greatest importance for our American heritage!!! Please, if anybody has other material of genuine myth texts, I need them!!!! Ones from languages all over the Americas. With these myths we can help preserve the Native American languages in a real way.

Detailed historical source material on the history of the Caddo indians. Most sources are from the Spanish missions of the 1600s and 1700s.

Index, with this particular feature: Look up the name of any one of the 50 States and find a LIST of the tribes in that region.

Provides cultural information, population, "History", and where the tribe and its neighbors believed they came from. Little or no "pre-history" or archeology. (For example, that the siksik (blackfeet) once raised corn but reverted to buffalo hunting and within a very few generations no longer had a cultural memory of agriculture.)

Contains a large placement map.… (altro)
