Sample Paragraph #
Coyote often uses his sharp mind to help his people. Fentz and Stokes point out that in many traditional stories, Coyote has great knowledge, and he provides advice and instruction to the people when they need it most (39). For example, they state that in one story, Coyote is one of the original spirit beings, and he "watches over the people" (42). At one point in the story, some of the people can't move their eyes, and everyone is very scared. They ask, "'What is the matter with our eyes? They won’t move!'" Coyote tells the people, "'I will explain it to you. The son-in-law and mother-in-law must not look at each other. If they do, their eyes will become blind'" (46). Once the people learn this from Coyote, they are able to move their eyes again (47). Another example is found in Truman Begay’s article on Coyote's importance to Navajo Art. Begay explains that in several modern Navajo art pieces, Coyote is depicted as showing his people ways to get out of difficult situations (263).
