Unlike a lot of Amerindian myths which, by their polymorphism stop at the 3rd step (the wind on the lake/ the search of an inner master) of the universal scenario established by Jean-Louis Brun from the I Ching, the myth of the creation of Arikara presents a great consistency. Based on the works of professor Pierrette Désy, specialist in ethnography and anthropology at the University of Quebec, Montreal, Jean-Louis Brun tells us, in this 15 minutes presentation, the myth of that farming tribe who lived in what is called now Dakota. Like the 15 other myths and legends presented, he brings in this one following the eight successive steps of the eight hexagrams from the I Ching.
