Do you believe in fairies?

Looks like we're on the same page as this one. :D I am aware that some Native American peoples had 'fairy' traditions, but know very little about them. Did/do the Lakota Sioux have such beliefs? If so, could you by any chance share the Lakota term for such a being?

Yes Scott! Although their fairies were slightly different than the European/Western fairies.
My mother, who was 1/2 Lakota called them wanagi witk'te (magical ghosts). :)

Dottie.
I really do enjoy all your great smileys!!!
I also believe that their are all sorts of spiirits and forces out there that we can't see or understand, whether they are fairies, angels, or whatever else.

I do too Marleen! I always look forward to reading Dottie's posts; partly because she's always so insightful, and partly because of all the great smileys and animation she uses.
I love it, love it, love it!!! 8)
Cameron:
And I enjoy your posts too, David, and your great (odd?) polls. ;D

Thank you so much, David! I just learned something today. :D I know very little about Native American myth and folklore, but am very curious about that subject. One of my favorite stories anywhere is the beautiful Lakota Sioux legend of White Buffalo Woman.
