Note 11 — Raven Traveling

Reading edition

A version of this episode obtained by Professor Boas runs as follows: “On his travels Nᴀñkî′lsʟas saw a large salmon (tā′un). He said to him, ‘Come nearer. Jump against my chest.’ He did so, and Nᴀñkî′lsʟas almost fainted. Then he made a hole in the rock. He called the salmon a second time, asking him to jump against his chest. The salmon did so and finally fell into the hole.” ↑
