Steffen,
osiyo! I am a bi-racial translator of Native American myths, legends and sacred Cherokee formulas of the medicine men/shamans. (It's okay. You can call it "myth"). Here is an invaluable source, if you want the real deal. It dates from the nineteenth century, and won't set you back too much, dollar-wise. It was compiled by a man named James Mooney. You can even get it in Kindle format. The title is "History, Myths, and Sacred Formulas of the Cherokee."

You can find some material in this vein, also, at my website,
