I can't find the answer to this question in a quiz I've been given. It could be because it's too broad. 'Who is the main god of Native American mythology?'

The Great Spirit, the Supreme Being. The Uncreated, the Father of Life, God of the Winds. The Great Spirit is present in some way in nearly every North American Indian mythology.
AWONAWILONA (Pueblo Indians)
KITCKI MANITOU (Algonquin)
VIRACOCHA (Inca)

The question is to broad. There are a lot of Native American tribes, there are roughly 80 Native American Tribes in California alone! Religious beliefs are almost certainly regional. Even if the idea of a "Main God" is represented to the various tribes under various names, then by default they aren't the "Main God". I don't believe there is one all encompassing "God" for all or even a majority of Native American people.

Ok thanks everyone. You've confirmed what I was discovering myself. Just thought maybe I was missing something or not phrasing my search questions right!
