Traditions of the North American Indians by James Athearn Jones Pdf

The first of three volumes of collected Native American folktales or oral traditions. Born in Massachusetts in 1790, James Athearn Jones grew up with Native American culture all around him. His childhood nursemaid was from the Gay Head tribe, and his household was frequented by other local Indigenous people of all ages. He enjoyed hearing their folktales. As an adult, he traveled the continent and sought to preserve and collect these stories in a book. In this first of three volumes, Jones shares eighteen captivating folktales from the North American Indians he encountered in his life. Discover such stories as “The Man of Ashes,” “Pomatare, the Flying Beaver,” and “The Resurrection of the Bison.” This enriching and enlightening collection serves as a fascinating means to explore some of the history and culture of Native Americans.

Traditions of the North American Indians, Volume 1 by James Athearn Jones Pdf

I was born within twelve miles of a principal tribe of Indians, within two miles of a small band, and within six miles of two other small bands, of that tribe. They were a remnant of the Pawkunnawkuts, who, at the first settlement of the country, were a very numerous, powerful, and warlike nation, but at the time of my birth had dwindled in numbers to about five hundred souls, and were restricted in territory to some six or seven thousand acres. They then, and at present, sank their primitive appellation in the less poetic name of Gayheads, which was given them by the white people with reference to the little elbow or promontory of land where they lived. Though the manners and customs of the Whites had made sad inroads on the primitive Indian character, there yet remained, at the time of my birth, enough to make them objects of ardent and profitable interest.

Traditions of the North American Indians by James Athearn Jones Pdf

With these wild stanzas, preliminary to a tradition current among the tribes of that region, Walk in the Water, a Roanoke chief of great celebrity, commenced his tale. Undoubtedly most of the Indians present were as well acquainted with the story as the narrator, but that circumstance seemed to abate nothing of the interest with which it was listened to; it certainly did not diminish the attention of the audience. In this respect, these wild foresters deserve to become a pattern for careful imitation. They never interrupt a speaker. However incongruous or ill put together his tale, or insulting the matter or manner of his speech, or revolting his opinions to their preconceived notions and prejudices, he is heard patiently until he has said all that he has to say. And, after he has seated himself, sufficient time is given him to recollect whether he has left unsaid any thing in his opinion of importance to the correct interpretation of his views.
