There are several myths (I believe they are Navajo or one of the Pueblos) about the "Hero Twins." You could use them as a comparison to other works such as "David and Goliath" or "Jack and the Beanstalk." |

Are there any good and I know that, historically,
Native Americans were an oral
people, but I was hoping that
