This page is titled to indicate that it's about mythology, but the first paragraph is about the people. That could use some cleanup. -Harmil 17:29, 23 September 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Some other things to include

This is partly just a note to myself since I need to go to bed but I'll forget this otherwise:

• Dawn Society
• Misaabe
• More on the manitous
• The Great Flood story and the recreation of the earth on Turtle's back
• More on the origin and purpose of the Midewiwin
• The importance of asemaa (?)
• Those...those guys who yelled when nibiinaabeg were around, to warn people? Johnston mentions them a few times, I think. I'll have to check (and see what their name is)
• Add back in stuff on the significance of the four directions (?)
• Better description of Nookomis and of "Mother Earth"
• Bagwajiwinini(wag?) (I'm not clear on who he/they is/are, though)
