Native American legends are traditional stories passed down through generations among various Indigenous tribes in North America. These tales often explain natural phenomena, cultural practices, and the origins of the world. They feature a range of characters, including animals, spirits, and heroes, and serve to impart moral lessons and cultural values. Each tribe has its unique set of legends, reflecting its history and environment. For example, the Navajo have stories about the Hero Twins, while the Iroquois share tales of the Sky Woman. These legends are an essential part of the tribes' identities and continue to be shared in modern times.
