Creation of Chinook Indians

Talapas (Creator) made the earth a nice place with animals and trees. Talapas asked T'soona (Thunderbird) to carry special eggs to a mountain called Kaheese. He did as he was told, but Old Giantess didn't want the eggs to hatch so she began to break the eggs. The Spirit Bird came down from the sky and consumed her with fire. The remaining eggs hatched and became Chinook Indian.
