Cherokee Cultural Traditions 
The Raven
For Tlingit Indians (North-West of the Pacific), the crow is the main divine character. He organizes the world, gives civilization and culture, creates and frees the sun.
For Haida indians (North-western coast of the Canada), the crow will steal the sun from the sky's master, to give it to the earth's people. Raven has also a magic canoe : he can make it change its size, from the pine needle size, to big enough to contain the whole universe.
In North America, the Raven is the personnification of the Supreme Being. When he flaps his wings he creates the wind, the thunder and the lightning.
In Mithra's cult, the Raven can fight evil spells.
