Plains Miwok and Sierra Miwok traditional narratives include myths, legends, tales, and oral histories preserved by the Miwok people of the central California, specifically those of Sacramento Valley and Sierra Mountains. These Miwoks are the linguistically related speakers of the Plains and Sierra Miwok languages and their descendents. At the time of European entry, local groups that spoke these languages participated in the general cultural pattern of central California. The record of Sierra Miwok oral literature is one of the most extensive in the state (see the ''Sources'' section below). The record of Plains Miwok narrative, on the other hand, is quite limited (see the Merriam () citation in the ''Sources'' section below). ==On-Line examples of their narratives== * (''The Indians of Yosemite Valley and Vicinity'' ) by Galen Clark (1904) * (''Indian Myths of South Central California'' ) by Alfred L. Kroeber (1907) * (''The Dawn of the World'' ) by C.
