Myths Of The Cherokee And Sacred Formulas Of The Cherokees is a book written by James Mooney, which explores the myths and sacred formulas of the Cherokee Native American tribe. The book is divided into two parts, with the first part focusing on Cherokee mythology and the second part exploring the sacred formulas used by the Cherokee in their religious practices.In the first part of the book, Mooney examines the myths and legends of the Cherokee people, including stories about the creation of the world, the origins of the Cherokee people, and the adventures of various gods and heroes. He also discusses the role of storytelling in Cherokee culture and the importance of these myths in shaping the Cherokee worldview.The second part of the book focuses on the sacred formulas used by the Cherokee in their religious rituals. These formulas, which were passed down orally from generation to generation, were used to invoke the aid of various spirits and deities, to heal the sick, and to bring good fortune to the tribe. Mooney provides detailed descriptions of these formulas, along with explanations of their meanings and the contexts in which they were used.Overall, Myths Of The Cherokee And Sacred Formulas Of The Cherokees is a fascinating exploration of Cherokee culture and spirituality, providing valuable insights into the beliefs and practices of this important Native American tribe.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
