Did the great Chief Sitting Bull relate a tale of great importance to Buffalo Bill?
The story here came from a 1950's Buffalo Bill annual published in 1951. In this book, Buffalo Bill related a story he had hear from a 'Great Indian Chief' he stated. This may have been Sitting Bull, who Buffalo Bill (William Cody) knew well.
The story related to Cody was called 'The Great Indian flood.' In this the Chief related a story of when the planet was young and 'mighty men ruled the Earth.' In the illustrations these 'men' are shown as taller than the trees and the Buffalo are dwarfed by them, indeed, in respect of the illustration, they are of a size that correallates to 'Giants' described in one of the historic Lakota stories about a Giant that was pursued and killed by Lakota braves after it had taken away a Lakota woman.
In the Cody story, the 'Great Mystery' the great creator was not referred to as Wakan Tanka, but as Nan-Tan-In-Chor. It is said that the giants displeased the great mystery by stating that they were greater and so the great creator sent a great rain down on them.
So the giants made for the highest peaks to escape the waters but did not escape the deluge.
It was then stated that the great creator made man again, smaller this time once the waters had subsided.
Now, we have other sources for a great flood and one wonders why the American Indian should also know of the 'biblical' type of deluge? That was a mystery to me until I came across this information. But that is no mere coincidence.
The Chief went on to tell how this situation post flood lead onto how the different colour people came to be. This also correalates to ancient Sumeria, from the dawn of creation in that region, the story fits in a basic form.
In Sumeria, thousands of years back, an interpretation was made of how we came about and it was stated that we (humans) were 'Adamu' - from the clay or from the Earth. This 'Adamu' was the first successful Male created, the first created person was a woman called Lillith in that experiment. This maybe why the Indian peoples refer to 'Mother Earth' perhaps.
The Chief stated that the great creator had made men 'from clay' this cannot be coincidence as we will discover later on. It was stated that when the creator baked the clay that the first was a dark man, the Negro, then he baked the second for less time and achieved the white man. Lastly he 'averaged' the time and got the Red Man.
The original Sumerian story was backed up by the fact it had been inscribed in Cuneiform language on clay tablets thousands of years ago. More of a coincidence was that Chief Joseph of the Nez Perce tribe carried the above Sumerian clay tablet in his medicine bag, this tablet was a receipt for a Lamb.
This raises the question of how Chief Joseph obtained this artefact? But it gets stranger. The Sumerians were said to be guided by a people who were taller than them at around 12 feet high called the Anunnaki. The Hopi were also helped by a small height creature that they called 'Ant friends,' but the Hopi phrase for them was 'Anu-nakki' - it is also no coincidence that many Hopi words and phrases are either directly same or similar to a number of Sumerian language phrases, to achieve this by pure chance is pretty much an impossibility mathematically. So it must be fact.
So these original great giants? Many skeletons of 'giants' have been uncovered across the planet. In America, many have been found, some were said to have 5 fingers and were much taller than the Indian peoples. Perhaps this is why the Indian raised a hand to show the fingers so that it would be immediately apparent who you were dealing with!
A number of skeletons of 'giants' are in the Smithsonian, but apparently cannot be found.
However, other skeletons exist which prove the point.
Which brings us to how there is this apparent connection to the area of Sumeria? Well, that is due to Atlantis. That is disputed to exist, but a number of the tribes from the southern United States are believed to have originated there.
As I often say to people who are unaware of the rich culture and heritage of the American Indian, they are often quite surprised to hear about how much they were unaware of.
