Context date October 2009 It s a big continent. From what region or ethnic group? Thunderbird and Whale is a story belonging to the Native American mythology mythological traditions of a number of tribes from the Pacific Northwest . Summary Whale was a monster, killing other whales and depriving the quileute tribe of meat and oil. Thunderbird mythology Thunderbird , a benevolent supernatural being, saw from its home high in the mountains that the people were starving. It soared out over the coastal waters, then plunged into the ocean and seized Whale. A struggle ensued the ocean receded and rose again. Many canoes were flung into trees and many people were killed. Thunderbird eventually succeeded in lifting Whale out of the ocean, carrying it high into the air and then dropping it. Then another great battle occurred on land. In one of many variant versions of the myth, the sound of the whale dropping into the sea is the source of thunder. A young boy of a Vancouver Island people, the Comox people Comox , was fascinated by the sound of thunder, and heard it from behind a point of land. He crossed that point, following the sound of thunder, and discovered the spectacle of the Thunderbird seizing and dropping the whale. The Thunderbird saw the boy, and told him that the story was now his, and he had the right to wear the Thunderbird mask and wings at the potlatch . In another variant, the flapping of the Thunderbird s wings is the source of the thunder. Reconstructing the myth In the 1980s, geologist s found evidence that an earthquake , powerful enough to send a tsunami all the way to Japan , hit the American Pacific Northwest in 1700. Some ethnology ethnologists believe that Thunderbird and Whale is a description of that disaster. ref Ludwin, Ruth. 2002. http www.geophys.washington.edu SEIS PNSN HIST CAT STORIES welcome.html Cascadia Megathrust Earthquakes in Pacific Northwest ..., which were encountered by the first human settlers of the Americas, would feed on stranded whale ... more details
