SHEEP and GOATS
The Great Medicine Dance The Tsis-tsistas people have danced the great medicine dance for a long, long time, longer than anyone can remember or even imag- ine. The dance represents the making of this universe, and was conceived and taught to the people by the Creator, Maheo, and his helper, Great Roaring Thunder. It portrays the mak- ing of the sun, moon, and stars; of rain, wind, and snow; of Grandmother Earth and the blue sky above her; of the mountains and rivers; of all living things, big and small. The dance is performed especially in times of starva-
tion, distress, and widespread death. This, our most sacred ceremony, was brought to us by the Sutai medicine man Horns Standing Up, under the guidance of the Creator himself.… Instructing [Horns Standing Up and a “good looking woman”] in the holy ways to perform the sacred ceremony, Maheo spoke for four days. When they had learned all there was to know about the dance the Creator said: Now you will leave and teach the people what I have taught you. And if they perform the ceremo- nies in the right way, they will be favored for generations to come….”

— from “The Great Medicine Dance” in American Indian Myths and Legends (Pantheon 1984), Richard Erdoes and Alfonso Ortiz
The Great Medicine Dance is a creation myth of the Cheyenne people that explains how God came to bestow agriculture, and therefore life, on humans. The version told above comes from Josie Limpy, “an old, chain-smoking lady belong to the Sutai division of the Cheyenne,” and recorded by (pictured) Richard Erdoes (1912–2008) in his and Ortiz’s book.
