The trickster-tale gender of folklore appears in most, if not all forms of society, and many examples are available. The common stock of tricksters in stories generated by disparate societies emphasizes the centrality of this archetype to the creativity of mankind. After all, in Northwest Native and Inuit tradition: Raven created the world, Loki is known to the Norse as a co-creator (and the bringer of Ragnarok), Anansi the spider-trickster among the Ashanti of Ghana, Nareau the spider in Micronesia, and Coyote among the Southwest Natives. To my discovery, Coyote is possibly the most notable indigenous Native American trickster. His tales are told by California, Southwest, Plateau, and Plains Indians. For Northwest Coast Indians, the trickster is Raven (Raven Cycle). We also have the Wisakedjak, anglicized to Whiskey Jack; is the trickster-hero for many Northeast Indians, as is Nanabozho; the Hare, who in the Southeast is called Rabbit. And of course, just as many other trickster-tales, North American trickster motifs generally smash moral lessons with humour. To name a couple, these include the false bridegroom; whose boasting exposes him as an impostor, and the eye juggler; who plays ball with his eyes and finally loses them.
