Ka-Ha-Si
In
Inuit mythology,
Ka-Ha-Si was a lazy Inuit boy who was shunned by his tribe
for his consant sleeping. In a
dream,
a
loon spoke to him and said
he had to save his tribe from a
famine
because the hunters had been unable to find game. Ka-Ha-Si tricked a group of
walruses into killing each other, but his fame for saving the tribe quickly
evaporated. And he was once again teased for his laziness. The same dream recurred
and Ka-Ha-Si fought a giant the next way, who had been beating all the men of
his tribe in wrestling matches. Ka-Ha-Si ended up becoming a wise and well-respect
shaman.
