Concerning cosmology, the Igorot believes Lumawig gave the earth
and all things connected with it. Lumawig makes it rain and storm,
gives day and night, heat and cold. The earth is "just as you see
it." It ceases somewhere a short distance beyond the most distant
place an Igorot has visited. He does not know how it is supported.

Members of the Ojibwa tribe of Indians are today most commonly
called "Chippewa." The old men of the tribe will tell you, however,
that the word Chippewa is a corruption of their true tribal name
"Ojibwa." Through the efforts of Scientists this latter term is
gradually coming in use again. Ojibwa Indians would not understand
you, if you pronounced "Ji-shib" as it is spelled, for they
pronounce it "she-sheeb." The World of Things does not mean to the
Indian what it means to us. It is difficult, almost impossible, for
him to differentiate himself from the other, so-called, lower
animals. He and they both had the same ancestors long, long ago.
One myth says, "Many, many Winters ago there were many buffalo;
after four days a part of the buffalo turned to Indians." In some
things the Indian believes himself superior to the other animals,
while in many things he as truly believes himself inferior to them.
The following is a true story, that is, it is all true to the
Ojibwa child, ---he believes it. The story is written with no other
thought than to have constantly in mind what the Ojibwa child
believes about the events of his everyday life as given in the
story. And the following incidents are taken directly from the
common life of the tribe. --- Albert Ernest Jenks
