In the myth of the Washington Indian mytho of how the buffalo never appears west of the mountains, the plot follows: Coyote is tripping along the prairie and crosses the path where Buffalo Bill has been killed by the younger buffalo. No plot there. So the plot kicks off the story beginning when Coyote takes revenge for the times Buffalo Bull "scared him" and no doubt chased him across the plains. His vengeance is to kick the bones and spit on the skull of the dead BB. (if he hadn't done this the plot would not have advanced to the next sequence) Magically, BB reappears alive and totally perturbed. The ongoing hostility between the 2 resumes. (as explained in the exposition in the 1st 2 paragraphs) BB chases coyote who ends up in a tree, about to be felled by BB. That's the 2nd stage of the conflict event. Then the coyote and BB come to an agreement, the 3rd big plot event: manufacturing (Acme, I'm sure) a new pair of horns for BB to rut the guts out of the young bull. When BB locates the young bull the climax of the story is reached with the death of the young bull and a reconciliation between coyote and BB. In the resolution, coyote is presented with a cow that he can take back to his people on the west side of the mountains. He kills the cow and is back to square one with nothing, and because of his greed and selfishness, and vanity, has deprived his people of the buffalo. And that is the theme. Denouement is the same as the falling action. The story stops building after the reconciliation, though I can see how the pivot in the story may be focused on the murder of the cow. Just taught this story to the class. Antagonist to my mind is BB, protagonist, coyote. My coteacher disagreed. As long as you can support your answer, you win.
"Coyote and the Buffalo" is a traditional story from the Okanogan culture that illustrates the value of cooperation and respect for nature. The story emphasizes the importance of each individual playing their part in the community to ensure harmony and balance. It also highlights the interconnectedness between all living beings and the significance of maintaining a symbiotic relationship with the natural world.
The setting of coyote and buffalo is important as it reflects the clash between civilization and the natural world. The presence of coyote represents cunning and adaptability, while the buffalo represents strength and resilience. This juxtaposition mirrors the themes of survival and the impact of human intervention on the environment.
The point of this legend is to explain why there are no "curled hairs" or buffalo in the Swah-netk'-qhu country. It is coyote's fault which is what the legend explains. The legend directly affects the region or setting. This is how they are connected.

All tribes will have a different belief on how Coyote stole fire (or even IF coyote stole fire). For my tribe's story, buy the book "Fire Race: A Karuk Coyote Tale" by Jonathan London. The book is beautifully illustrated and is a retelling of our story.
