San Carlos Apache Texts (Classic Reprint)


Book Description

Excerpt from San Carlos Apache Texts The texts taken from Albert Evans, which are placed first in this paper, are probably more accurately recorded than the remainder of the texts and they are also fairly well translated. Of these taken from Antonio, The Deer Woman, on page 290, is better than the texts recorded from him in 1910. The larger part of the material secured in 1905 has been included notwithstanding its imperfections, since as large and varied a vocabulary as possible is to be desired. The English renderings are those given by the Indians, except where the context or the etymology of the words in the texts plainly indicated a differ ent meaning.

Jicarilla Apache Texts


Book Description

The Jicarilla Apaches carry a rich tradition of legendary stories, and customs ranging back centuries - this book, translated directly from texts in the Apache language, contains many examples of tribal lore. An exceptional introduction to Native American tribal culture, we find here a range of descriptions and narrations. The initial selection concerns the early creation myths of the Apache, while certain animals are discussed as representing symbols in nature. Other stories concern ancient heroes who embark upon daring rescues or deliver people under their protection to safety. In many stories, animals themselves are personified, with various traits - noble and otherwise - displayed in such stories. Later entries in this collection include personal anecdotes of events that happened in the distant past; the Apache's history with the neighboring Navajo tribe, successful hunts of mighty beasts and game, and various explorations of distant canyons. Finally, a selection of explanations concerning life in the Apache tribe are offered - advice on building a tipi hut, cooking certain meats, the medicine ceremonies and rituals, the celebrations of adolescence and the slaying of the buffalo are some of the topics. Overall, this book is a fine introduction to the rich Apache culture and traditions.
