His face was weather beaten, but his eyes<br \/>\nwere still bright. I never knew what tribe he was from, though I<br \/>\ncould guess. Yet others from the tribe whom I talked to later had<br \/>\nnever heard his story.<\/p>\n<p>We had been talking of the visions of the young men. He sat for<br \/>\na long time, looking out across the Yellowstone Valley through the<br \/>\npouring rain, before he spoke. &quot;They are beginning to come<br \/>\nback,&quot; he said.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;\u00bfQui\u00e9n va a volver?&quot; Yo pregunt\u00e9.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Los animales&quot;, dijo. Ha sucedido antes.<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Cu\u00e9ntame sobre eso.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>He thought for a long while before he lifted his hands and his<br \/>\neyes. &quot;The Great Spirit smiled on this land when he made it.<br \/>\nThere were mountains and plains, forests and grasslands. There were<br \/>\nanimals of many kinds&#8211;and men.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>The old man&rsquo;s hands moved smoothly, telling the story more clearly<br \/>\nthan his voice.<\/p>\n<p>The Great Spirit told the people, &quot;These animals are your<br \/>\nbrothers. Share the land with them. They will give you food and<br \/>\nclothing. Live with them and protect them.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>&quot;Protect especially the buffalo, for the buffalo will give<br \/>\nyou food and shelter. The hide of the buffalo will keep you from<br \/>\nthe cold, from the heat, and from the rain. As long as you have<br \/>\nthe buffalo, you will never need to suffer.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>For many winters the people lived at peace with the animals and<br \/>\nwith the land. When they killed a buffalo, they thanked the Great<br \/>\nSpirit, and they used every part of the buffalo. It took care of every need.<\/p>\n<p>Then other people came. They did not think of the animals as brothers.<br \/>\nThey killed, even when they did not need food. They burned and cut<br \/>\nthe forests, and the animals died. They shot the buffalo and called<br \/>\nit sport. They killed the fish in the streams.<\/p>\n<p>When the Great Spirit looked down, he was sad. He let the smoke<br \/>\nof the fires lie in the valleys. The people coughed and choked.<br \/>\nBut still they burned and they killed.<\/p>\n<p>So the Great Spirit sent rains to put out the fires and to destroy<br \/>\nthe people.<\/p>\n<p>The rains fell, and the waters rose. The people moved from the<br \/>\nflooded valleys to the higher land.<\/p>\n<p>Spotted Bear, the medicine man, gathered together his people. He<br \/>\nsaid to them, &quot;The Great Spirit has told us that as long as<br \/>\nwe have the buffalo we will be safe from heat and cold and rain.<br \/>\nBut there are no longer any buffalo. Unless we can find buffalo<br \/>\nand live at peace with nature, we will all die.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Still the rains fell, and the waters rose. The people moved from<br \/>\nthe flooded plains to the hills.<\/p>\n<p>The young men went out and hunted for the buffalo. As they went<br \/>\nthey put out the fires. They made friends with the animals once<br \/>\nmore. They cleaned out the streams.<\/p>\n<p>Still the rains fell, and the waters rose. The people moved from<br \/>\nthe flooded hills to the mountains.<\/p>\n<p>Two young men came to Spotted Bear. &quot;We have found the buffalo,&quot;<br \/>\nthey said. &quot;There was a cow, a calf, and a great white bull.<br \/>\nThe cow and the calf climbed up to the safety of the mountains.<br \/>\nThey should be back when the rain stops. But the bank gave way,<br \/>\nand the bull was swept away by the flood waters. We followed and<br \/>\ngot him to shore, but he had drowned. We have brought you his hide.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Desplegaron una enorme piel de b\u00fafalo blanca.<\/p>\n<p>Spotted Bear took the white buffalo hide. &quot;Many people have<br \/>\nbeen drowned,&quot; he said. &quot;Our food has been carried away.<br \/>\nBut our young people are no longer destroying the world that was<br \/>\ncreated for them. They have found the white buffalo. It will save<br \/>\nthose who are left.&quot;<\/p>\n<p>Still the rains fell, and the waters rose. The people moved from<br \/>\nthe flooded mountains to the highest peaks.<\/p>\n<p>Spotted Bear spread the white buffalo skin on the ground. He and<br \/>\nthe other medicine men scraped it and stretched it, and scraped<br \/>\nit and stretched it.<\/p>\n<p>Still the rains fell. Like all rawhide, the buffalo skin stretched<br \/>\nwhen it was wet. Spotted Bear stretched it out over the village.<br \/>\nAll the people who were left crowded under it.<\/p>\n<p>As the rains fell, the medicine men stretched the buffalo skin<br \/>\nacross the mountains. Each day they stretched it farther.<\/p>\n<p>Then Spotted Bear tied one corner to the top of the Big Horn Mountains.<br \/>\nThat side, he fastened to the Pryors. The next corner he tied to<br \/>\nthe Bear Tooth Mountains. Crossing the Yellowstone Valley, he tied<br \/>\none corner to the Crazy Mountains, and the other to Signal Butte<br \/>\nin the Bull Mountains.<\/p>\n<p>The whole Yellowstone Valley was covered by the white buffalo skin.<br \/>\nThough the rains still fell above, it did not fall in the Yellowstone Valley.<\/p>\n<p>The waters sank away. Animals from the outside moved into the valley,<br \/>\nunder the white buffalo skin. The people shared the valley with them.<\/p>\n<p>Still the rains fell above the buffalo skin. The skin stretched<br \/>\nand began to sag.<\/p>\n<p>Spotted Bear stood on the Bridger Mountains and raised the west<br \/>\nend of the buffalo skin to catch the West Wind. The West Wind rushed<br \/>\nin and was caught under the buffalo skin. The wind lifted the skin<br \/>\nuntil it formed a great dome over the valley.<\/p>\n<p>The Great Spirit saw that the people were living at peace with<br \/>\nthe earth. The rains stopped, and the sun shone. As the sun shone<br \/>\non the white buffalo skin, it gleamed with colors of red and yellow<br \/>\nand blue.<\/p>\n<p>As the sun shone on the rawhide, it began to shrink. The ends of<br \/>\nthe dome shrank away until all that was left was one great arch<br \/>\nacross the valley.<\/p>\n<p>The old man&rsquo;s voice faded away; but his hands said &quot;Look,&quot;<br \/>\nand his arms moved toward the valley.<\/p>\n<p>The rain had stopped and a rainbow arched across the Yellowstone<br \/>\nValley. A buffalo calf and its mother grazed beneath it.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Cheyenne-Arapaho Mythology Wiki Los Cheyennes son una naci\u00f3n nativa americana de las Grandes Llanuras, aliados cercanos de los Arapahos y en general aliados de los Lakotas... <\/p>","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"parent":3895,"menu_order":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-22118","page","type-page","status-publish","hentry"],"amp_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/22118","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=22118"}],"version-history":[{"count":3,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/22118\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":22125,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/22118\/revisions\/22125"}],"up":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/3895"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/mythslegendes.com\/es\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=22118"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
