William Lloyd [1911] | \n \n \n \n \n This is a rare book of Pima folklore,\n transcribed by a sympathetic amateur\n ethnographer at the beginning of the twentieth century.\n The Pima live in the arid deserts of southern Arizona,\n and originally survived by horticulture and hunting/gathering.\n Lloyd was not a linguist, and collected the stories through\n an interpreter.\n All of the Pima words and phrases are written\n using a crude 'phonetic' system, which no doubt is fairly inaccurate.\n However, this does not invalidate the folklore, which is well-told\n and consistent with other southwestern Native American mythology,\n particularly in its repetition of the number four.\n \n \n Title Page\n Author's Errata\n The Story of these Stories\n \n \n Stories of the First Night\n The Traditions Of The Pimas\n The Story of the Creation\n Juhwerta Mahkai's Song of Creation\n Notes on Story of Creation\n The Story of the Flood\n Songs\n Notes on the Story of the Flood\n The Story Of Ah-ahn-he-eat-toe-pahk Mahkai\n Notes on the Story of Ah-ahn-he-eat-toe-pahk Mahkai\n The Story of Vandaih, The Man-Eagle\n Notes on the Story of Vandaih\n \n \n Stories of the Second Night\n The Story of the Turquoises and the Red Bird\n Notes on the Story of the Turquoises\n The Story of Wayhohm, Toehahvs and Tottai\n Notes on the Story of Wayhohm\n The Story of Hawawk\n Notes on the Story of Hawawk\n The Story of Tawquahdahmawks and her Canal\n Notes on the Story of Tawquahdahmawks\n How Nooee Killed Ee-Ee-Toy\n Songs\n Notes on How Nooee Killed Ee-Ee-Toy\n Ee-Ee-Toy's Resurrection and Speech to Juhwerta Mahkai\n Notes On Ee-ee-toy's Resurrection\n \n \n Stories of the Third Night\n The Story Of Ee-ee-toy's Army\n Songs\n The Destruction of the Vahahkkees\n Songs\n Notes on the Story of Ee-Ee-Toy's Army and that of the Destruction of the Vahakkees\n The Story of Sohahnee Mahkai and Kawkoinpuh\n Notes on the Story of Sohahnee Mahkai\n The Story Of Pahtahnkum\n The Song of Koelhahah About Her Son\n Notes on the Story of Pahtahnkum\n \n \n Stories of the Fourth Night\n The Story of the Gambler's War\n Notes on the Story of the Gambler's War\n The Story Of Nahvahchoo\n Notes on the Story of Nahvahchoo\n The Story of Corn and Tobacco\n Notes on the Story of Corn and Tobacco\n The Story of the Children of Cloud\n Notes on the Story of Cloud\n The Story of Tcheunassat Seeven\n Songs\n The Legend of Blackwater","title":"Aw-aw-tam Indian Nights (Myths and Legends of the Pimas) ...","type":"page"}
