Indian Lore Parallels Lambs Roast Pig Story
The piece notes a parallel between Charles Lambs tale of roast pork found by fire in China and a Mexican Indian legend cited by Mrs Zella Nutall in Journal of Heredity. It says founders troubled by beasts burned forests to clear land and found roasted grains delicious, then planted unburnt grains for harvest. An Italian historian in Mexico recorded this legend about dawn of farming and cookery before Lambs birth.
