Ute mythology |
||
|
The Ute are a tribe of Native Americans from the western United States.
Siats[?] is a cannibalistic clown monster. Cin-an-ev[?] is a wolf trickster and culture hero. The Ute especially venerated a bear spirit, who occasionally went on killing sprees. Sunuwavi[?], a Ute hero, once rescued his people from this by finding the qumu[?], the bear's fire medicine (spiritual power), and covering it with water, thus ending the spirit's power. |
