The Short, Swift Time of Gods on Earth: The Hohokam Chronicles
In the spring of 1935, at Snaketown, Arizona, two Pima Indians recounted and translated their entire traditional creation narrative. Juan Smith, reputedly the last tribesman with extensive knowledge of the Pima version of this story, spoke and sang while William Smith Allison translated into English and Julian Hayden, an archaeologist, recorded Allison's words verbatim. The resulting document, the “Hohokam Chronicles,” is the most complete native…

The Whole Past In a Yavapai Mythology
INTRODUCTION\nThis paper stems from two concerns with a long history in Americanist anthropology, one the study of how individuals shape the intellectual life of their community, the other the study of myth "as history." They come together in the particular definition of "mythology" adopted for this paper, namely "all the texts that one narrator tells; his entire corpus of texts." We will discuss a corpus of 24 texts collected from the Yavapai Ji…
Piman Songs on Hunting
T his paper examines three sets of Piman (Pima-Papago) songs on hunting. 1 Each set is for the cure of a different kind of sickness. One is for 'deer sickness' (huawi mumkidag).2 Another, for 'jimsonweed sickness' (kotdopi mumkadag), has a deer as its central character and in effect tells a hunting story. The last, for 'cow sickness' (haiwaii mumkidag), is also a hunting story with cowboys and cows in the roles of hunters and hunted. The three se…

Song in Piman Curing
On the Complexity of Southwest Indian Emergence Myths
Chanted and prose versions of the Zuni and Pima emergence (or creation) stories are compared from the standpoints of literary complexity and narrative content. We show how the Pima have a more complex text than the Zuni instances under consideration, a fact which we attribute to the Zuni determination to render their emergence story in chanted form. The differences between prose and chant as southwestern literary genres are explored with a view t…

Who Were the Hohokam? The Evidence from Pima-Papago Myths
A corpus of thirteen Pima-Papago myths is examined for historical evidence concerning the prehistoric Hohokam peoples in southern Arizona and concerning the origin of the Buzzard moiety among Pimans. It is suggested that most myths involving the Hohokam express a death and rebirth ideology which may have been influenced by any of four sources, including diffusion from central Mexico, an actual Hohokam conquest, Spanish expeditions in search of Ci…
