Talk:Hiawatha
I created a separate page for Song of Hiawatha and moved the link to poem's text there. Hiawatha was not simply a fictional character but was an important political figure in the history of North America and should be treated as such, not simply as the subject of Longfellow's poem (or as the Disney cartoon version of him as a little Indian boy), which is really a collection of Iroquiois myths more than anything else. -- Decumanus 04:13, 1 Feb 2004 (UTC)
