Native Languages of the Americas: Navajo Legends and Traditional Stories
This is our collection of links to Navajo folktales and traditional stories that can be read online.
We have indexed our Native American folklore section
by tribe to make them easier to locate; however, variants on the same
legend 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 Navajo tribe, the traditional stories of
related tribes like the
Apache and Pueblo tribes are very similar.
Enjoy the stories! If you would like to recommend a Navajo legend for this page or think one of the ones on here
should be removed, please contact us and let us know.
