Flooding myths around the world
|
Navajo
For their sins, the Gods expelled the Insect People from the first
world by sending a wall of water from all directions. The Insect
People flew up into the second world. Later, in the fourth world,
descendants of these people were likewise punished. They escaped
the floodwaters by climbing into a fast-growing reed. Cicada dug
an entrance into the fifth world, where people live today.
