In the video, Amylin mistakenly credits the name of the Native American Uktena figure to the Shawnee when the name comes from the Cherokee. As said though, the horned serpent does appear in a number of Native American stories under the names of Avanyu (Tewa), Misi-kinepikw (Cree), Msi-kinepikwa (Shawnee), Misi-ginebig (Oji-Cree), Mishi-ginebig (Ojibwe), Olobit (Natchez), Pita-skog (Abenaki), Sinti lapitta (Choctaw), Estakwvnayv (Muscogee), Uktena (Cherokee), Unktehi or Unktehila (Dakota), and Unktehila (Lakota).
