The Sky Woman was a legend of the Iroquois based on the First Civilization.
History
Referred to as Iottsitíson by Kaniehtí:io,[1] the Sky Woman fell to the Earth in order to rid it of darkness and chaos. As she was falling, animals from the water joined together to create an area for the Sky Woman to land – what would be known later as North America. After thanking the animals, she gave birth to twin sons, the Good and Evil Spirits. The Sky Woman passed away during childbirth, believing the Evil Spirit had caused her great pain. Mourning the loss of his mother, the Good Spirit made her eyes the sun and moon, and made her tears the stars. Her body would later become part of the earth, giving life to to trees and plants.[2]
Trivia
- There is a slight misinterpretation of the lore. In Onatah's retelling, the Sky Woman gave birth to twin sons. However, the legend states that Sky Woman gave birth to the Earth Mother, who then gave birth to the twin sons.
