Sweet Medicine was the cultural hero and prophet of the Cheyenne people. According to legend, the Creator gave Sweet Medicine the four sacred arrows (2 for use in hunting and 2 for use in war) which were directly responsible for the existence of the Cheyenne because without the ability to hunt and defend themselves, the could not be. Sweet Medicine is also used in many different what we would call folk stories that are used to teach people about how to live amongst other things. These stories were primarily passed down via oral traditions to younger generations of Cheyenne.
