Among the Lakota, this legend is called Enya-hoksei. It is told differently by every story-teller of every clan. The outline of the legend remains the same as it travels with time. The whole story changes with the changing of times. The significance of it, as it goes through the ages, is that it has no horses in it. The story has to be very old.
