This kind of original text of myth, along with translation is of greatest importance for our American heritage!!! Please, if anybody has other material of genuine myth texts, I need them!!!! Ones from languages all over the Americas. With these myths we can help preserve the Native American languages in a real way.

Contains a large placement map.… (más)
