The Tewa Creation Story

There’s tons of debate between which creation story is true. Some people say that the Adam and Eve creation story is true. Others truly think the Native American one is correct. But nobody alive today, has any idea which one is true, probably no one ever will. However, both Native American and Creation stories are similar in many ways. Both stories are different also.

Kyle and Jared had nowhere to escape, they were in another dimension. Where legends, and creatures exist. At Least, that's what they thought. Kyle told Jared about the Cree legend about a Wihtiko. According to Kyle Wihtiko craves human flesh. At first, Jared didn't believe him, I mean who would? 2 deers came walking by, Kyle lifted his rifle and shot one. A big grey shadow started to appear, it got bigger every second. They both started to think it was the Wihtiko mistaking the deers as humans. The shadow looked like a bear, with fangs. Both kyle and Jared were sure it was the Wihtiko who was attacking. The Wihtiko ate the deer, and got bigger. Kyle killed the Wihtiko with one of his last bullets in his riffle. They didn't know any other information

Maddy Esteves, Pauline’s

When people first started to think about how the Earth was created, there were many different theories and stories that varied greatly from place to place. The Native American Tribes, for example, all had very different views and opinions on how everything began. The Onondaga Tribe was a polytheistic group located in present-day central New York State, and they had very different views compared to the Christians, who have a monotheistic religion. The Christian religion was centered mostly in Europe, where it had a large amount of followers. The Native Americans and the Europeans lived a great distance from each other and didn’t even know of each other’s existence until the late 1400s. Though the two have

The Tequendama falls which the local people believe as a spiritual place is spiritual because it is believed that when slaves would run from the slave owners is that they would jump off the falls and become eagles to fly away from the slave owners. The institute of natural sciences is saying that the Hotel was closed because of the river contamination in the Bogota river. The Bogota river is right under the Tequendama falls which the Hotel sits on top of. The river became contaminated because of the sewage in the river. The people around the bogota river are trying to clean the river so the hotel can be reopened.The institute of natural sciences want to reopen the hotel as a museum for historical purposes. Hotel del salto is a haunted Hotel

It was during the time period that Christ was born that the Anasazi Indians appeared in the Four Corners area which is the area where the boundaries of Arizona, Utah, New Mexico and Colorado meet. For the over a thousand years the Anasazi thrived and built their homes into the side of cliffs. These cliff dwellings could only be reached by climbing and made for a great defense system against enemies; some dwellings reached five stories in height and contained hundreds of rooms. Many of the elaborate cliff dwellings and terraced apartment houses built of stone, mud, and wood that dot the Four Corners region still stand today and date back to about 9,000 CE., but the people who comprised this desert culture did not begin to settle into an agricultural lifestyle until around A.D. 400. The Anasazi, which is a Navajo word meaning “the ancient ones”, likely received corn, squash and beans, which are a prime source of protein, added to their diet and the knowledge to raise them from their southern neighbors in Mexico. Vegetable crops provided a reliable food source that made an increase in population possible and also allowed time for other interests such as religion, art, ritual, public works and handicrafts. This allowed the Anasazi society continued to evolve and progress. The ancient ones also possessed beans, a prime source of protein and new varieties of corn. Other innovations included the bow and arrow which eventually replaced spears and at least two varieties of dogs

The Makah tribe is a native American tribe who lived in Olympic Peninsula in Washington State for centuries. Makah people tended to descend their culture to one another and ran on their traditions through generations. Makah tribe practiced whale hunting in the past as one of their historical traditions when they were given permission after Treaty of Neah. The Makah harvested whale for provisions and countries-exporting values. But most people think it 's demoralizing to kill a pure, innocent mammal like whale. As an outsider, we can’t go to conclusion and say their tradition is inhumane and needs to be stopped. If we put ourselves in their shoes, we could probably learn the truth behind the whaling process and decipher all the

All humans are interested in their origins and trying to account for their existence through creation stories. Native Americans tribes are no different from the rest of humanity. The tribes’ stories explain how people came into existence, how they came to be live on the lands they do and the how people interact with nature and each other. These trends can be seen in the legends of three tribes hailing from New England to the Great Lakes Region.

The creation story of the Ojibwa beginning with nothing but absorbing dark void because in the beginning there was nothing besides that. Nothing. Not until Manitou. Before him there was a possibility that everything that we know and also everything that we didn’t know could exist. Our human mind is not able to be capable of thinking such possibility. No person can imagine such unfathomable powers to envision such foresee of creation. It is unpassable for a human to image such a phenomenon thing and bring it all into existence, that’s why people believe in a high power then them. Some call it as God, Allah, Buddha etc. God’s are all (seemingly) super natural, imaginary some would say! and are a creation of humanity to bring a sense of hope.

Eternal inflation is an alternative theory of creation that is a modification of the Big Bang Theory. The earliest universe was expanding matter, and particles that were next to each other would routinely be sent whizzing away to the farthest reaches of their cosmological horizons. It is no longer like that, however, as the inflation stopped. The theory of eternal inflation is that the expansion did not stop all at once. Rather, little bubbles of space randomly stopped inflating, or fell onto trajectories that led to the end of their inflation. And, since the expansion is rapid, the inflating space creates more space than the bubbles that stop inflating lose -- so inflation never ends. The result is an ever-expanding multiverse, which means not only is Earth not the center of the universe but our universe isn’t the center of the universe.

The Native Americans created their own version of the creation story, as well as the Judeo-Christians. Both stories are very similar in a way but also different. As one believes in God, the heavens, and the Earth and the other in Skywomen, the Skyworld, and the Earth.

Many Native Americans tell stories of the creation of earth that explain how they came to be before the Europeans entered North America. Creation myths vary among all cultures; however, they all have one thing in common; heaven and earth. One of the most popular creation myths was the Iroquois creation myth. The Iroquois or Haudenosaunee meaning “People of the Longhouse” (Iroquois Indian Museum, n.d.) consists of six Indian nations that include the Mohawk, Oneida, Onondaga, Cayuga, Seneca, and Tuscarora tribes. In the beginning, there was a belief that before the creation of earth, there were two realms, the sky, and the lower world that consisted of water and water creatures. From the sky, a young woman named the Sky Woman was

​Religions of China are diverse and include practices such as ancestor veneration to deity worship. For my project, I have chosen the creation deity, Nüwa. She is a crucial member of the deities in Chinese mythology. She is “best known for creating and reproducing people after a great calamity” leading to her being known as a creative deity (“Nuwa”). I think that her story has a lot to offer and displays connections between Chinese religions of

There was only water and bare, empty land. In the center of this nothingness was a great mountain. This mountain stood tall and proud and it reached all the way into the heavens. At the very top of this mountain lived a pair of every kind of animal. In the center of this heaven grew a tree. This tree was not just any tree, it was the sacred tree of life, and it was not to be harmed in any way.

The power in The Navajo Creation Story belongs to the four Holy People who were called mysterious beings. They appeared four times over a four day period (Franklin A: 28). These beings wanted to create more people, a community, which led to the creation of the First Man and First Woman. The First Man and First Woman became leaders as they learned “how to live a good life” (Franklin A: 29). In order for their family to live a good life the family had to grow, so after four days there were children. At the conclusion of the story, the Twins became leaders who saved the people from Monsters.
