Archived American Indian Legends
These are links to the legends we have archived on our own site, either because they were submitted to us by volunteers, because we have translated
them into English ourselves, because we have reprinted them from public domain sources we couldn't find already available on the Internet,
or because we have archived them from sites that have gone down or are unreliable or difficult to link to. If there are any
problems with one of these legends please let me know and I'll take care of it right away.
