Native Languages of the Americas: Saanich Indian Legends
This is our collection of links to Saanich folktales and traditional stories that can be read online.
We have indexed our Native American mythology 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 Saanich-speaking Straits Salish tribes, the traditional stories of
other Salish people like the Skagit and
Squamish tribes are very similar.
Enjoy the stories! If you would like to recommend a Saanich legend for this page or think one of the ones on here
should be removed, please contact us and let us know.
