520			_a"Seven Mohave Myths" by A. L. Kroeber is an anthropological text written in the mid-20th century. This work focuses on the mythological narratives of the Mohave Indians, providing insights into their cultural beliefs, oral traditions, and storytelling techniques. The collection serves as a repository of the Mohave narratives, which are richly woven with song schemes, offering a glimpse into the community's historical and cosmic understanding of their world. At the start of "Seven Mohave Myths," Kroeber introduces the cultural significance of these narratives within Mohave society. He explains that the stories are not just retellings but serve a ritualistic and educational function, emphasizing that many tales are deeply embedded in the dreams and lived experience of the tellers. The opening specifically notes the tale of "Cane," recounting a story with epic qualities, focusing on two brothers, Pukehane and T{sh}it{sh}uvare, and their adventures as they navigate personal trials and familial relationships influenced by their cultural beliefs. The text also highlights the oral tradition's intricacies, illustrating how the tales' stylistic elements contribute to their function as cultural artifacts.
