The Origin of the Iroquois Nations
Iroquois
About 1390, today's State of New York became the stronghold of five powerful Indian tribes. They were later joined by another great tribe, the Tuscaroras from the south. Eventually the Iroquois, Mohawks, Oneidas, Onondagas, and Cayugas joined together to form the great Iroquois Nation. In 1715, the Tuscaroras were accepted into the Iroquois Nation. The Five Nations Long, long ago, one of the Spirits of the Sky World came down and looked at the earth. As he travelled over it, he found it beautiful, and so he created people to live on it. Before returning to the sky, he gave them names, called the people all together, and spoke his parting words:

Native American Mythology
Your task is work with a partner to create a presentation which compares a Native American folk tale, myth or legend with a popular myth from another culture - Greek, Roman, Egyptian, Early Christian, Asian, African or European. 1. First read pages 20-25 in your Elements of Literature anthology. 2. Next, choose a Native American myth or legend. One person will present the Native American folk tale to the class. In Native American tradition, stories, legends and history were passed down through oral tradition; there were no written documents. Often, storytellers would illustrate their tales with drawings on cave walls or clothing, and even in dirt on the ground. They never read the stories. Instead, the shamans, or storytellers, would engage their audience by telling the folk tale with emotion using different voices, facial expressions and gestures. I expect you to do the same. You are to use a four panel story board as a visual aid during the presentation and supplement your telling with appropriate music, photographs or artifacts. 3. The other partner will present a comparison of your Native American myth or legend to a myth or legend from another culture. They will share an explanation of how the two stories deal differently with a similar theme or event.

The Owl and
The Bluejays
Charles Krafft While hitchhiking to Seattle, two Indians gave me a ride from La Conner to Mt. Vernon in a pickup truck. On the way I told them I was an artist, and showed them a folio of bird drawings I had with me. The Indians looked at them with some interest, then the one driving asked me to draw a picture of a Bluejay for him. He told me that the Bluejay was the only bird that will help another bird of a species different than its own. I asked the Indian how they did this. He said that the Bluejays will always surround a hungry bird, even an Eagle, and feed it. I said I would give him a picture of a Bluejay the next time I saw him. Then the Indian sitting next to me who had been silent, turned and said, "I can hear the Bluejays talk." I asked him what they said. He replied, "Right now they are talking to an Owl they've got riding between them in a truck."

http://www.kivati.com/ourname.htm
Kivati - a figure in Native American mythology, Kivati means “the man who changed things”, and is credited with, among other things, bringing tools - early technology - to humans. This singular event brought humans from the dark ages into civilization. The legend of Kivati is seasoned with examples of honor, enhancement, innovation, and character.
Enhancement - Legend holds that Kivati brought to humans tools that would be used to make life better. Fire and hand tools to fulfill necessary tasks - and open new opportunities for survival. He taught humans how to use these gifts, which allowed mere survival to blossom into prosperity.
Innovation - The legend continues on a trying day, when a great sea monster rose to consume his brother. Demonstrating the potentially endless possibilities his contributions bring to existence, he threw hot rocks into the sea, boiling the monster and thereby saving his brother, a human.
Character - Seemingly all actions by Kivati were that of contribution to humans, and to the quality of our existence. Driven by a deep desire to help, aid, and assist, Kivati’s satisfaction was derived from selfless contribution towards the greater cause of those cared for.
Honor - One evening, engaging a beautiful sunset, Kivati realized that he had no more to contribute. In his last act of giving, he pulled a blanket over his body, and turned himself into stone. A completed personal mission, his body a remaining gift to the world.

    Students must be admitted
    in order to participate in lessons.
    Course Description:
      Native American Literature is an 18-lesson course which is intended to be taught over one semester. Each lesson takes 5-6 hours to complete. During the course of the semester, students read and discuss literature which reflects, and was written by members of the Native American Nations (tribes) of North, Central and South America. The course is approached from a historical and Native American perspective. Students compare and contrast Native American Literature to literature of other cultures, and at the conclusion of the semester, will have a good understanding of the value and depth of Native American Literature. Students use as many online resources as necessary, as many of the literature pieces have never been anthologized. Prerequisites: This course is considered a 12th grade honors course and students should already have completed Language Arts (9th Grade), Language Arts (10th Grade), and American Literature (11th Grade) before taking this course. Students should also read and familiarize themselves with Student Learner Responsibilities to better understand the online learning environment and to make their learning experience more meaningful.

Contact Us ABC Gives Green Light to Native American Miniseries HOLLYWOOD (Variety) January 17 - The myths and legends of Native American culture will come to life via ``Dreamkeeper,'' a $30 million-plus miniseries just greenlit by ABC. The tentatively titled four-hour epic will use special effects to dramatize seven or eight Native American legends, such as the story of a rain god who falls in love with a mortal woman; another is about an outcast child who attempts to tame a water beast, thus saving his town. The project will feature a cast made up almost entirely of Native American actors; a huge chunk of the crew also is expected to be Native American. Production is set to begin May 1 with an air date targeted for November 2003. Wrapped around the mythology will be the story of a 17-year-old Native American boy (Eddie Spears) who, against his will, is forced to drive his 100-year-old grandfather to an annual storytelling powwow. During their drive from South Dakota to Santa Fe, the grandfather recounts the stories of his culture to his grandson, ultimately convincing the teen of the importance of his heritage.
