Southeastern Indians, By John R. Swanton, 1929
There is an old story to the effect that some people once came to a very
small pool of water to bathe.
The man who entered this first came out clean and his descendants, the
white people, have the same appearance.
He had, however, dirtied the water a little and so the next man was not
quite so clean, and his descendants are the Indians.
By this time the water was very dirty and so the last man came out black
and his people are the negroes.
