The Deer Lady Part 1
Episode description
The Deer Woman stories are found in a number of Indigenous tribes, they are often told to children in the communities of the Sioux, Oceti Sakowin, Ojibwe, Ponca, Omaha, Cherokee, Muscogee, Seminole, Choctaw, Otoe, Osage, Pawnee, and the Iroquois.
The Deer Woman, sometimes known as the Deer Lady, is said to be a shape-shifter. She is seen as a beautiful woman just off the trail or behind a bush, calling to men to come over. The Deer Woman is described as a normal young woman, except her feet which are shaped like deer hooves and her brown deer's eyes. Men who are lured into her presence often notice too late that she is not a natural woman and are then stomped to death. Other stories and traditions describe the sighting of Deer Woman to be a sign of personal transformation or a warning. Deer Woman is also said to be fond of dancing and will sometimes join a communal dance unnoticed leaving only when the drum beating ceases.
Today we get in to the history of the Sioux and their amazing tepees. They have a rick culture and are amazing architects. Sit back and enjoy the show and don't forget to download part 2 on Thursday. Please follow rate and review if you would like a free sticker.
