The creation myths of America form a complete system, they give a detailed and circumstantial account of the origin of this world and of all things and creatures contained in it. In this course of the various narratives which compose this myth system, an earlier world is described to us, with an order of existence and a method of conduct on which the life of primitive man in American was patterned.
