Sia Indian Creation Legend
- Sia Indian Creation Legend
In the myth of this New Mexico tribe everything began with the spider weaving a web on which
Sus’sistinnako, the creator, played an accompaniment to his songs. As he sang men appeared and then light, and afterwards the
Utset sisters, the first women, one of whom was the mother of the Indians and the other of the other races. From them arose various ancestors of the clan totems, Eagle, Coyote, Bear, etc.
