Katchina and the Bear

One summer night Katchina followed her brother, the bear, up the steep slope. Katchina and her mother had disgraced their tribe and in punishment their grandfather, the chief of their tribe, had turned her brother, Bull Foot into a bear and cast their family out of the tribe. Their mother died of the flu a month later, so they had gone in search of the sacred tipi, the home of the sun, to ask for food and shelter.
