"The Journal of American Folk-lore. Vol. VI.—July-September, 1893.—No. XXII." is a compilation of late 19th-century folk stories and myths. It explores the diverse folklore of several Native American tribes, with a special emphasis on tales of the Blackfoot, Onondaga, and other tribes that highlight creation, community, and our link to nature. Featuring stories of the earth's creation by Napioa and tales of family dynamics and conflict resolution by storys like "The Blood-Clot Boy," this collection serves as a document of oral traditions, seeking to capture the beliefs, customs, and values of Indigenous communities facing cultural shifts.
