American Indians facts
What's new on our site today!
This is our collection of links to Molale stories and folktales that can be read online. We have indexed our Native American myth section by tribe to make them easier to locate; however, variants on the same story are often told by American Indians from different tribes, especially if those tribes are kinfolk or neighbors to each other. In particular, though these legends come from the Molale, the traditional stories of related tribes like the Klamath and Chinook tribes are very similar.
Coyote.
Coyote is the trickster figure of the Molale tribe. As in other Plateau Indian mythology, Molale coyote stories range
from light-hearted tales of mischief and buffoonery to more serious legends about monster-slaying and the nature of the world.
