Tsimshian Texts. E-book. Formato PDF. The texts are in the Nass River dialect of the Tsimshian language. The dialect is called by the natives nisqa'e. The texts were obtained from four individuals — Philip, Moses, Chief Mountain, and Moody. By far the greater number of them are myths of the tribe. Judging from similar myths which I collected in previous years among the Tsim shian proper,2 they are only moderately well told.
