Dine Emergence/Creation
This is
a story told by the Navajo people by word of mouth to the young and old. The
Navajo believe there are Five Worlds. We are presently in the fifth world. The
first world was a small, dark and water filled world. It was known as the Red
World where the flying insects were the first and only people. The second world
was blue with the air. The spirit people here were swallows? More about this legend
Great Flood
Great Flood:
Most tribes have a flood story similar to the one in the Bible. Water, in the
legends, is a primary world, a preworld, one that gives birth to the present one.
Through the energy of water, man is forced or driven to rise to a higher plane.
In many origin stories, The People are (as in the biblical tale) indifferent to
their plight, and thus only the worthy, the "listeners," men, animals,
birds, and insects, are brought up into the next world? More about this legend
Silversmithing
When and how
the Navaho acquired the art of working metals is unknown but there are reasons
for supposing that it was introduced among them, or at least more developed and
improved upon by them, since the time they have occupied their present country? More about this legend
