Here the noted folklorist brings together traditional accounts of epic events and adventures in the life of Hopi clans and villages, from legendary to historical times. The setting of these various adventures and events is not the Southwest as we know it today, but a vast and largely unpeopled wilderness in which clans and families wandered in search of a final living place, and in search of their collective identity.

Great book to read about the common legends and history of the Hopi Indians ( )

All of the books in print about the Hopis have their benefits and flaws. This one is more reliable than Waters' *Book of the Hopi*, but its version of the Hopi creation story is not representative of most villages. Still, it is the single best source for Hopi history since the arrival of the Conquistadors. It was one of my primary sources for the chapter I wrote on the Hopis in *Water: Its Spiritual Significance* (Fons Vitae, 2010). ( )

Very interesting collection of mythology. Understanding the allegorical significance to the folklore really gives you some wonderful insights. Especially enjoyed their eshewing of comfort. ( )

Oplysninger fra den engelske Almen Viden Redigér teksten, så den bliver dansk.
When a stranger comes to the village, feed him. Do not injure one another, because all beings deserve to live together without injury being doone to them. When people are old and cannot work any more, do not turn them out to shift for themselves, but take care of them. Defend yourselves when an enemy comes to your village, but do not go out seeking war. The Hopis shall take this counselling and make it the Hopi Way
--from the Palatkwapi story
