Book excerpt: Excerpt from Traditions of the Crows The brave Duck went down and was gone a long time, and when it came up it carried upon its beak some dirt that it gave to old-man, who held it in his hand until it became dry; then he blew it in various directions and made land and the mountains and the rivers. Old-man, who was all powerful, was asked by the Ducks to make other living things. Old-man took more dirt in his hand and after it dried, blew it out, and there stood a man and a woman that were Crow Indians; and from this dirt Crows appeared. Old-man explained to them how to increase in number. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.

This book was released on 2016-08-29 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Religion of the Crow Indians Some had dreams while out lost in a storm at night or under Similar circumstances. In these dreams beings would come to them while they were not asleep and Showed them what kind of medicine to have. Others, having lost a Sister or brother or some other close relative, would chop off a finger and go to the mountains to have dreams. All this comes from old-woman's-grandson. In their dreams they would see a bird or some other animal transformed into a man who had painted his face and tied certain feathers to his head and would tell the visionary to imitate him. Those who herded horses would stay out at night with their herd and sometimes had dreams of horses. Then they went out to the enemy and brought back so many head of horses. In their vision they would see a horse turn into a man, who would talk to the dreamer. First the visionary would see a man who showed him some medicine, then the visitant would turn into an animal. Those who dreamt of a bear were not shot in battles, or even if they were shot, the arrows or bullets would fall to the ground. Badger dreams are the same. I know of two men who dreamt of a badger. One of them would not eat the young of any animal. I saw the other deliberately shoot himself in the breast, but the bullet fell on the ground and he was not killed. Sometimes people dreamt of stones or rocks; these would be like the bear and badger dreamers. Some times the bear was thought to be a real bear, sometimes he would come out of the clouds. These were larger than real bears, I don't know what they were. Old woman's-grandson told all the animals to help the people of the earth, and that is why they appeared in these dreams. The animals gave power to these Indians. Scratches-face's views on old-woman's-grandson were shared by some other informants, but not by all (see p. It will be noted that he assigns a specific character to visions of bears, badgers, and rocks, to wit, that of bestowing immunity to missiles.

Download or read book The Common Crow of the United States (Classic Reprint) written by Walter Bradford Barrows and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-10-21 with total page 102 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Common Crow of the United States All of these charges are sustained by the stomach examinations, so far as the simple fact that Crows feed upon the substances named. But the extent of the injury is a very different matter. In order to ascertain whether the sum of the harm done outweighs the sum of the good, or the contrary, the different kinds of food found in the stomachs have been reduced to quantitative percentages and contrasted. The total quantity of corn eaten during the entire year amounts to 25 percent of the food of adult Crows, and only per cent of the food of young Crows. Leaving the young out of consider ation, it may be said that in agricultural districts about one-fourth of the food of Crows consists of corn. But less than 14 percent of this corn, and only 3 percent of the total food of the Crow, consists of Sprouting corn and corn in the milk; the remaining 86 percent of the corn, or 97 percent of the total food, is chiefly waste grain picked up here and there, mainly in winter, and of no economic value. In the case of cultivated fruits the loss is trivial. The same is true of the eggs and young of poultry and wild birds, the total for the year amounting to only 1 percent of the food.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from When the Cock Crows It is sunrise. The door of the hut swings on its heavy hinges. A sturdy-looking old fellow with grizzled beard and flowing locks steps out of the Shack, and, as has been his wont for years, he scans the horizon for a sail or perchance for other more modern craft of the sea. In his arms, he is tenderly carrying a large Dominick rooster, which, judging from his length of spurs, and scaly legs, has lingered many summers. Satisfying himself that there is no boat in Sight, to break the monotony of the view, Captain Ichabod places his only living companion - as he expresses it his poultry alarm clock - upon the ground, and from a pocket produces a handful of corn, which the old cock greedily devours.

Download or read book Crow Jesus written by Mark Clatterbuck and published by University of Oklahoma Press. This book was released on 2017-02-10 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Crow Christianity speaks in many voices, and in the pages of Crow Jesus, these voices tell a complex story of Christian faith and Native tradition combining and reshaping each other to create a new and richly varied religious identity. In this collection of narratives, fifteen members of the Apsáalooke (Crow) Nation in southeastern Montana and three non-Native missionaries to the reservation describe how Christianity has shaped their lives, their families, and their community through the years. Among the speakers are elders and young people, women and men, pastors and laypeople, devout traditionalists and skeptics of the indigenous cultural way. Taken together, the narratives reveal the startling variety and sharp contradictions that exist in Native Christian devotion among Crows today, from Pentecostal Peyotists to Sun-Dancing Catholics to tongues-speaking Baptists in the sweat lodge. Editor Mark Clatterbuck also offers a historical overview of Christianity’s arrival, growth, and ongoing influence in Crow Country, with special attention to Christianity’s relationship to traditional ceremonies and indigenous ways of seeing the world. In Crow Jesus, Clatterbuck explores contemporary Native Christianity by listening as indigenous voices narrate their own stories on their own terms. His collection tells the larger story of a tribe that has adopted Christian beliefs and practices in such a way that simple, unqualified designations of religious belonging—whether “Christian” or “Sun Dancer” or “Peyotist”—are seldom, if ever, adequate.
