"Native American Raven Mythology:In the mythology of many Northwest Indian tribes, Raven is honoured as a cultural hero. He is a revered and benevolent transformer figure who helps the people and shapes their world for them. At the same time, he is also a trickster character, and many Raven stories involve his frivolous or poorly thought-out behaviour, causing trouble for him and the people around him. Raven is noted for negative traits such as gluttony, greed, impatience, heroism and great deeds. Ravens are used as clan animals in many Native American cultures..
