Welcome to a new episode of Stories That Made Us, the podcast where we cover myths and legends from around the world. The first season is all about the tales of the creation of our world and of us. This episode, the 38th of the season, speaks of the tales of the Iroquois, namely, the Seneca, the Mohawk, the Onondaga, and the Oneida tribes. These tales are a few of the many Native American stories that we've covered over the past months. Check out episode 1 for tales of the Achomawi, Atsugewi, and Acoma Pueblo. Episodes 4 and 6 recounts the stories of various Apache and Algonquian-speaking tribes respectively while episode 9 features the Arikara and the Arapaho. You'll find the fascinating stories of the Cherokee, Caddo, and Cheyenne in episode 12, and the creek, crow, and Diegueno in episode 15. We then visited recounted the myth of the Hopi in episode 21! The next two episodes on native Americans to feature in the podcast were the Joshua and Kiowa in episode 31, and the Lenape, Luiseno, and Maidu in episode 33. Finally, in episode 34, we covered the Navajo and the Mandan Native American tribes. Do check them out! The stories provide a fascinating insight into the similarities and distinctions of the tales of peoples of the North American continent.
