Perhaps the most interesting tales about ravens originate from North America – specifically from indigenous peoples of the Pacific Northwest. In their mythology, the raven is closely associated with the Creator. In one story, it is said Raven discovered the first humans trapped in a giant clam shell. He freed them from their prison, but discovered the females were missing. Raven later found them trapped in a chiton (another type of shell). After reuniting the two sexes, the raven enjoyed watching them interact and grew quite fond of them. From then on, Raven became the protector and provider of mankind.
