Wappo traditional narratives
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Wappo traditional narratives include myths, legends, tales, and oral histories preserved by the Wappo people of the North Coast Ranges of northeastern California.
Wappo oral literature was classed with that of central California, but it also showed influences from the Pacific Northwest region.(See also Traditional narratives (Native California).)
