Beskrivelse af Seneca Indian Myths (1922)
Seneca Indian Myths is a book authored by Jeremiah Curtin and published in 1922. The book is a collection of myths and legends from the Seneca tribe, one of the six nations of the Iroquois Confederacy. The myths in the book were originally passed down orally from generation to generation and were recorded by Curtin during his travels in the late 19th century.The book contains a total of 24 myths, each with its own unique story and characters. The myths cover a range of topics, including creation stories, tales of heroes and monsters, and explanations for natural phenomena such as thunder and lightning.One of the most notable myths in the book is the story of the creation of the world, which tells of how the world was formed by a great turtle and how humans came to be. Other myths include the tale of the hero Hiawatha, who helped to create the Iroquois Confederacy, and the story of the monster Tawiscara, who terrorized the Seneca people.Throughout the book, Curtin provides detailed notes and explanations to help readers understand the cultural context and significance of each myth. The book also includes illustrations by Seneca artist Jesse Cornplanter.Overall, Seneca Indian Myths is a fascinating and informative collection of myths and legends from one of the most important Native American tribes.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
