Washo Indian Creation Legend
- Washo Indian Creation Legend
The myth of this California tribe tells of a great seismic upheaval which causes the mountains to catch fire, the flames rising so high that the stars melted and fell to earth. This was followed by a deluge, and some of the men who tried to escape from it by building a high tower were changed into stones.
