This text includes excerpts discussing the origin myth of the Medicine Rite, featuring three versions and their historical context. A detailed analysis will follow in the next installment, but a few remarks are necessary here. For information on how versions I and II were obtained, readers are directed to a previous account in The Road of Life and Death.
