Description
Tali Nohkati is the child of the first man and first woman, watched over by Moon and Coyote, the two primordial beings who created the world. After a great fire kills Tali Nohkati's parents and renders the land barren and dead, the Moon and Coyote are forced to send the boy on a journey to find a new home in the lands beyond the horizon. He first goes to the White Land of ice and snow, where the polar bear Yupik teaches him to hunt. When winter comes, he builds a boat and follows the whale Atii south to warmer climes. Along the way, Atii helps him fish, and when a storm destroys his skiff, the whale allows him to ride in her throat. After further adventures in forests, plains, and deserts among wolves, bison, and snakes, respectively, Tali Nohkati finally reaches the Land of the Red Earth, where he finds his fellow men. Rakenika, a man who wears an eagle feather in his hair, adopts the boy into his tribe and teaches him the ways of the Great Hunt.
