Some indigenous American tribes like the Hopi and Navajo hold a positive place for Spider in their cultural mythos as Spider Grandmother and Spider Woman, powerful helpers and healers. The lore of some cultures view Spider as the weaver of fate, the teller of epic tales or even the creator of the world, yet it is the role of Spider as the trickster god that weaves its long lasting reputation as the Devil's little helper.

Spider is deceptive and cunning as the Unktomi who tricks the Stone Boy right out of his clothes in the oral tradition of the Lakota people, while perhaps one of Spider's most notable associations with trickery is in the person of Kwaku Anansi in the African myths of the Ashanti. Like all good tricksters, the tales of Anansi weave moral lessons for those wise enough to be teachable.
