Out of curiosity - are you aware of any tribes (specifically) that had a flood myth/"coming out of a cave" origin story?

I have a few, but I'm always on the look out for more!

I know that a lot of the Pacific Northwest tribes had flood myths/ stories, butI'm afraid I don't know of many tribes with "Coming out of a cave" myths. I'm always learning more, so if I find any, I'll be sure to pass them along!

Thank you so much! Together, we are stronger and can solve the mysteries of the past!!

I believe the Hopi are the most famous of the "out of caves" myths.
