The words are written in the English spelling in the text for easier reading, but the Muscogee alphabet is quite different from English, as shown in the Muscogee alphabet list included in the book. Since the Native way to pass down traditions was usually oral, they didn't have a written alphabet until the Europeans came and wrote it down based on the Latin alphabet. It consists of 19 letters and was adopted in 1853 by the Muscogee Creek Nation and the Seminole Nation of Oklahoma.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe traditions: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe traditions written about in the story include storytelling, pow wow festivals and dancing in the pow wow circle, respect of elders, the belief in a Creator, finger weaving, flute playing, the wearing of regalia (traditional pow wow clothing), and certain traditional foods like corn and fry bread.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 30\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.08 x 8.5 x 8.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 30, 2026\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67883446862131,"sku":"9798234184931","price":25.7,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/1gWPkQTWTE9798234184931.webp?v=1793658619","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/products\/the-flute-that-found-its-person-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
