Starting around 6,000 years ago, many aspects of the historic Nez Perce way of life began to appear in the region. They were mostly reliant on big game hunting as a primary means of subsistence. The earliest peoples lived in small groups and family units. Their traditional homeland occupied nearly 13 million acres in what is today Oregon, Washington, and Idaho. T he Nimiipuu have been part of this land for countless generations. These stories provided instruction in Nimiipuu culture, and often conveyed moral teachings and practical information. It’se-ye-ye left the heart of the monster near Kamiah, Idaho and sprinkled blood around the surrounding countryside, and created the Nimiipuu, the Nez Perce people. Coyote carved the monster into pieces, and scattered the parts throughout the land, where they became the various tribes. While in the monster’s stomach, he killed the monster and set the animals free. The Nimiipuu creation story reveals that when a monster began to consume the animals, Coyote tricked the monster into swallowing him. The primary animal was It’se-ye-ye, who at times had superhuman powers. Archeological evidence indicates that peoples have occupied the Plateau culture area of the Northwest for at least the last 11,000 years.Ī ccording to legend, the world before humans was inhabited by animals that possessed human traits.
