"After all the clans had originated and gathered at the Red Banks, then the chief of the people built a big lodge that they might all live in it. So they did, but the clans had a fight within the lodge and even killed one another. So the lodge was abandoned and after that anyone could live in it that cared to." [1]

Commentary. "Red Banks" -- this is on the shore of Green Bay (De Rok) in Wisconsin and is the site where the animal progenitors of the clans gathered to form the Hotcâk Nation (the Creation Council).

Comparative Material. This sounds a little bit like the story of the Tower of Babel, save that the nations have been replaced by the Hotcâk clans. This is told as an incident in history, as it may have been for all we know, although that is highly unlikely, since it is set in the primordial times of foundation.
