This is an EXTREMELY comprehensive encylopedia of the myths of the Hotcak/Winnebago indians.
I recommend a glance at the "catalogue of story types" which seems a very good model of "what bases to cover" when constructing myths for RPG cultures.
The Core Myths section has an interesting device; myths are "scored" according to how many OTHER myths reference or are referenced by a particular myth, as an indicator of its significance in the cosmology.
Not only does this site contain a lot of interesting detail, it is cross-referenced, includes a glossary, maps, it is basically the dogs dangly bits. Check it out.
