The Inuits "Legends"
Origin of the Raven
Once upon a time, two birds were together and decided to become more beautiful then any other birds. They decided that they would tattoo each other, creating designs upon themselves which would be the envy of all other birds.
As one bird began painting the other, the bird being painted would not hold still, after repeated scoldings by the one painting, the other bird still would not hold still. Finally, his patience wearing thin, the painter dumped all the black color over the bird and thus the first raven came into existence.
