Qualities myth makers see in nature
The qualities that the myth makers see in nature in all these stories is caring and helping others. All the nature animals in the stories help to create life and humans. In "the earth on the turtles back" the muskrat helps to bring the earth that is needed to create the earth and help the sky lady survive. In "When grizzlies walked upright" the grizzlies helped rescue and raise the chiefs daughter. Then the chiefs daughter and a grizzly helped to create the first humans which were Indians. And lastly in "The Navaho origin legend" the wind helps to bring life to the corn to creat human life. All in all nature helped to creat life. It was always kind and helpful.
