Collected here are the timeless Native American fables and legends
handed down by noted Seneca anthropologist Arthur C. Parker.
Growing up on the Cattaraugus Indian reservation in western New
York, Parker knew the importance of the storyteller in Iroquois
lives. The Seneca stories of animals, whose weaknesses and
strengths are suspiciously like those of human beings, held a
special place for Parker, who is considered by many as one of the
greatest orators in any language. Oral traditions - whether myths,
legends, or folktales - are more than just "stories." They are the
way by which a society communicates to its members the order and
meaning to be found in the world around them. Young adults and
children, especially, will be captivated by these Seneca tales.
