Some tales speak of ancient migrations. However, Native Americans are descended from hunting and gathering peoples of northeastern Asia who traveled across the Bering Sea into North America during the most recent Ice Age. During that Ice Age, which ended around 8000 B . C ., the level of the oceans was much lower, and a bridge of land linked Siberia and Alaska. Some groups may also have reached Alaska from Siberia by boat or by walking on ice. Over thousands of years, the population of North America grew and diversified into the peoples and cultures that Europeans encountered when they began to colonize the continent in the A . D . 1500s. Regions and Types. Scholars have divided North America into different regions based on patterns of Native American mythology. Although each region contains many different peoples and languages, some elements of mythology are shared across the region, and certain kinds of stories are particularly important.

Native American Mythology: Salmon Boy Native American mythology is full of stories about the relationship between people and animals. The Haida indians of British Columbia have an interesting myth about a boy who becomes a salmon. The Haida, like all the tribes in their area, rely on the salmon as a major food source. This story teaches respect for the salmon, as we should respect all living creatures, especially the ones we use as food. A long time ago, a young Haida boy was hungry and his mother gave him a piece of fish to eat. The boy looked at the fish, but refused to eat it saying it was moldy. I guess he ate something eventually because soon he went out to play with the other children. They were swimming in a nearby river. The boy joined them, but swam far out and drowned in the swift current. The salmon people caught his soul and took it to their village under the sea. Once in their village the fish changed into human form. The village was like his own with houses and children playing in a stream. The similarity of the salmon people's village to indian villages on land is a common feature of native American mythology. When the boy said he was hungry, he was told to take one of the children from the stream, cook and eat it. There was one condition, however: after eating it he had to return the bones, scales and whatever else was left to the stream. After the boy ate he heard a child crying. The child told his mother that his eye hurt. The salmon people asked the boy to be sure he had returned all the left over parts of the fish to the river. The boy looked on the river bank and found an eye he has missed before. He threw the eye in the water and the child stopped crying.

Native American Mythology Unit Table of Contents Introduction Activities Resources Archived Work ... Culminating Campfire Activity Introduction This unit ideally takes place from "Columbus Day" through Thanksgiving. Experiences such as a field trip to The Museum of American Indian Culture and silent "stream of consciousness" sessions in the woods on campus preceed classroom lessons. To enable the children to experience nature as the early inhabitants of our NE woodlands, we take our students to a nearby wooded area. They bring with them a book we've dubbed "Bits and Pieces," a scrapbook-type collection of pre-writing brainstorms, outlines, quotes, pictures, articles, etc. The children record all of the sights, sounds, thoughts, sensations, and imaginings as they sit in the woods for a 30-40 minute period. This experience helps the children establish settings for the myths they will eventually write. They are often surprised at how poetic their pieces sound. Some are turned into " woods poems ."
