THE SIOUX MYTHOLOGY.
Strange Beliefs of the Indians About the
sun and Noon.

| Strange Beliefs of the Indians About the
sun and Moon.
| Before the advent of the white man
these people believed that the earth
was fiat, with circular form, and was
suspended in dark space, and shell
| tered by the heaven or sky in the shape
of hollow hemisphere. The sun was
regarded as the father and the earth
Is the mother of all things that live
and grow; but as they had been mar
ried long time and had become the
parents ofmany generations, they were
called the great-grandparents. As far
as | can judge, the moon seemed to be
their servant; at least she was required
to watch, together with her brothers,
the stars, over the sleeping universe,
while the sun came down to rest with
his family.
In the thunder-bird they believe God
had warrior who presided over the
most powerful elements-the storm
and the fearful cyclone. This symbolic
creature is depicted as an impatient
and wrathy god of war, at whose ap-
pearance even the ever-smiling grand

realms of water the whale is the SYM
bolized chief of the finny tribes. In
every great lake the Sioux imagines a
huge fish as ruler of its waters.
Yet none of these possess the power
of speech. The great mystery had
shown them some truths denied to
man, but he did not trust them fully,
therefore he made them dumb. They
can only show to man some superna-
tural things by signs or in dreams; as,
for instance, to foretell future events
or explain the use of certain powerful
remedies. The savage holds that the
key of heaven is vested in the visible
phenomena of the universe. All crea-
tures, save man, are assigned to a pecu-
liar paradise, IL which there is n for
hidden fruit-namely, the apple of
speech and reasoning. Hence the ami
mails and inanimatc things are eX-
empted from sin. Thus it is that
rocks, trees, and rivers are surrounded
with an atmosphere of grandeur,
beauty, and mystery. Nature is the
interpreter of the great mystery, and
through her man is convinced of truth.
