Origins

[edit]

This is all very interesting, but which mythology does this belong to? sjc

Pacific Northwest Coast; the version cited appears to be the Kwakiutl one, although they're all similar. This is a popular story in schools and, at least in my day, was taught to non-native kids.Skookum1 22:25, 18 May 2006 (UTC)[reply]
@Sjc and Skookum1: As "Quileute" is explicitly mentioned in text I presumed §Quileute. Though {{citation needed}} to verify one way or other.
I added a Kawkiutl section (§Kwakwakaʼwakw) citing Boas (1935b). --Kiyoweap (talk) 18:25, 31 January 2021 (UTC)[reply]
