The Traditions of the Hopi

This book of Hopi folklore, collected by an ethnographer early in the 20th century, is one of the most extensive available.

It includes a hundred Hopi folk tales, including mythology of the emergence from the underworld, legends of the wanderings of the clans, plus historical legends.

It is now known that the Hopi were a bit selective in what they told the earliest researchers, but this does not lessen the value of this collection, or call into question its authenticity.--J.B. Hare
