Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.

Excerpt from Miwok Myths The Black Geese asked the W'hite Geese to help them. They gathered in the assembly house. Lizard lav on top of the rock and looked into the valley. It was then that he found the fire. He saw the ﬂames issuing from the smoke hole in the top of a large assembly house. Then Lizard told Coyote that he saw the fire below. Coyote doubted him. Lizard said, Come up here on top of the rock, look below, and you will see sparks coming from the assembly house. Covote asked, Where do you see the fire? I see 110 fire in that direction. Then Lizard said, Watch. There goes another spark. Coyote said to the Geese, It is strange that we cannot see it. He saw it again. The Geese did not believe him. They said that he was deceiving them.

Edward Winslow Gifford (1887-1959) devoted his life to studying California Indian ethnography as a professor of anthropology and director of the Museum of Anthropology at the University of California, Berkeley. Born in Oakland, he became an assistant curator of ornithology at the California Academy of Sciences after graduating from high school; he never attended college. He joined the University of California s Museum of Anthropology in 1912 as an assistant curator, becoming a curator in 1925 and a professor in 1945. Working in close association with the preeminent leader in California anthropology, Alfred L. Kroeber, Gifford produced more than 100 publications. His numerous contributions to salvage ethnography have left an invaluable record of the state s disappearing native cultures. He developed the University s Museum of Anthropology into a major U. S. institution with its major field research and collections.

All are sentence-by-sentence translations into English of myths which were recorded in Miwok on the phonograph.
