Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Myths of the Southern Sierra Miwok The third peopling of the world was by bird and mammal people, most of whom later became our present birds and mammals. The chiefs9 of this people were Morning-star and Puma. Their home was in the large chamber of Bower Cave.10 The stalactitic formations now to be seen in this cave are in reality only the dried meat and entrails which these chiefs had as food. Raven was the great hunter at this cave home of the chiefs. Wild cat, Fox, and certain others were also very important personages. Raven was originally pure white, but when he went out hunting the deer saw him and he was unable to get near enough to shoot. He smeared charcoal paint all over his body and found that he was less easily seen. Hence his present black color. All of these people, except Morning-star, became birds and mammals as indicated.

Covote asked, Where do you see the fire? I see 110 fire in that direction. Then Lizard said, Watch. There goes another spark. Coyote said to the Geese, It is strange that we cannot see it. He saw it again. The Geese did not believe him. They said that he was deceiving them. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
