Temporal versus Sacred Time Among the Creeks, time must be thought of as existing in two forms: linear (temporal) and cyclic (sacred). The temporal aspects of Creek time have been recorded by several early writers. According to Adair, the Creek new year begins at the first new moon after the vernal equinox. According to Swan the new year begins at the time of the Annual Busk, which he places in August. Swanton suggests that these two accounts seem at odds but provides his own reconciliation of the two views. He suggests Creek temporal time could be divided into two seasons of six months each. The Annual Busk, from which all sacred events were counted, marked the ending of the old year and the summer season (February through July) and the beginning of the new year and winter season (August through January). Another division could be made at right angles to this one, which marked the ceremonial season. Most, if not all, public ceremonies occurred from April to October.

 

Ellis Childers, the last chief of the Chiaha and one of Swanton’s sources, gives his account of the ceremonial season as follows: “When the new moon at the end of April or beginning of May approaches the medicine man (hilis-haya) tells the miko to call his people. He also tells the miko in what phase of the moon to send out. Immediately the miko sends a ta’pala or ‘messenger’ through the town to notify everyone to meet at the square ground that night.”

 

Over a four-day period follows a series of dances; the collection and taking of medicine, which included the miko hoyan•dja, pasa, cedar, and hit¥’tåbi (ice weed); and the delivery of speeches and announcements or messages from other towns. At the next new moon the same procedure is followed. At the third new moon the chief and a chosen number from each “bed” decide the date for the Annual Busk. A cane is split into small pieces representing the number of days until the Busk. One bundle is tied over the chief’s seat on the Busk Ground and one bundle is sent to each friendly town as an invitation to share in the Busk.

 

According to Speck, the Yuchis divided the year into four seasons: the spring (when summer is near), the summer (related to “south”), the autumn (when the tree leaves are yellow), and winter (snow comes). Speck’s list of month names, along with those provided for other groups by Swan and Swanton, are as follows:

 

January: Ground Frozen Month (Yuchi) Little Winter Moon (Swan) none given (Alabama) Little Winter (Koasati)

February: Wind Month (Yuchi) The Windy Moon (Swan) none given (Alabama) none given (Koasati)

March: Little Summer (Yuchi) Little Spring Moon (Swan) Wind Moon (Alabama) Wind Moon (Koasati)

April: Big Summer (Yuchi) Big Spring Moon (Swan) Planting Moon (Alabama) Planting Moon (Koasati)

May: Mulberry Ripening Month (Yuchi) Mulberry Moon (Swan) May Haws Ripe (Alabama) May Haws Ripe (Koasati) June: Blackberry Ripening Month (Yuchi) Blackberry Moon (Swan) Half Way Month (Alabama) ? (Koasati)

July: Middle of Summer (Yuchi) Little Ripening Moon (Swan) Mulberries Ripe (Alabama) Mulberries Ripe (Koasati) August: Dog Day (Yuchi) Big Ripening Moon (Swan) Wild Peaches Ripe (Alabama) none given (Koasati)

September: Hay Cutting Month (Yuchi) Little Chestnut Moon (Swan) none given (Alabama) none given (Koasati)

October: Corn Ripening Month (Yuchi) Big Chestnut Moon (Swan) Frog Moon (Alabama) none given (Koasati) November: none given (Yuchi) Falling Leaf Moon (Swan) Black Water (Alabama) Whippoorwill Moon (Koasati) December: Middle of Winter (Yuchi) Big Winter Moon (Swan) none given (Alabama) Big Winter (Koasati)

 

The passage of temporal time was punctuated with sacred times that were out of the ordinary, qualitatively different kinds of time when things were not as they seemed and humans were in touch with sacred powers. In the earliest of times, soon after creation, sacred power abounded. All that existed, existed as a manifestation of sacred power. Animals and humans shared similar characteristics and spoke the same language. All existence was equally saturated with sacred power. As time passed, though, direct encounters with sacred power became limited to certain times or were achievable only through intensive training or participation in rituals. Warfare and hunting were perceived as sacred times and were elaborated with ritual and intense cultural meaning. A woman’s first menses signaled a move from childhood to adulthood and was accompanied by ceremony associated with her power to bring forth life.

 

Certain rites and rituals also became necessary for the maintenance of universal balance and the perpetuation of time. Rites and rituals that were communicated to humans through sacred means became the basis of the ritual life of the Creeks.
