The Legend of Turtle Island
According to the legend, when the world was covered in water, the Great Spirit sent animals to dive beneath the waves in search of earth. One after another, they tried and failed, until the humble muskrat brought back a small bit of soil. The Great Turtle then offered its back as a foundation, and upon it the land grew—becoming what we now know as North America. This tale of perseverance, sacrifice, and harmony with nature is beautifully embodied in the Turtle, a sacred symbol of life and the earth itself.
