Sobre este artículo
Washington, DC: Published By the Carnegie Institution of Washington, 1906. 546 pages. Signed by the author on the title page. The author was the Curator of Anthropology at the Field Museum of Natural History. Although labeled "Part I", this work is complete within itself and contains 148 tales of the Kitkehahki, Pitahauirat, and Chaui bands of the Pawnee. The myths include: "True Stories of the Heavenly Beings,", "Tales of Ready-to-Give," "The Origin of Medicine Ceremonies or Power" and "Coyote Tales," among others. When the Pawnee were removed form Nebraska to Oklahoma, their population had been nearly 2,000. This work came from the 500 who survived and remembered their religious observances though they had now become almost totally abandoned. Bound in maroon cloth, spine lettering gilt.
