The earth began as nothing but water and darkness, and all the animals were in Galúnlati, above the stone vault that makes up the sky. Galúnlati became so crowded that the animals needed more room, and they wanted to move down to earth. Not knowing what was below the water, they sent down the Water-beetle to explore. Water-beetle dove below the water and eventually came back with some mud from below. That mud grew and grew, and finally it became the island that we call earth.

The cycle is set in out what is known as an ideal month containing thirty days. Unfortunately for the Babylonians mean month set out by a lunar cycle is 29.5 days long. As this creates a problem with syncing solar phases with seasons the tropical year, the real lunar month were used where a new month was indicated by a crescent moon rather than following a thirty day cycle.

Even though the rotation and revolution are both 27.3 days, the cycle for all of the phases takes 29.3 days. The phases are caused by the positions of the sun, moon, and Earth. Half of the moon is always shining on the moon. Sometimes you might only see half of it, and sometimes you might see all of it.

The Cherokee Indians have spread their beliefs on this topic throughout generations through oral tradition. Recent authors have taken these myths to paper to preserve history and to spread them even further around the world. “How the World Was Made” is a creation myth that not only offers an abundance of information regarding the origin of earth, but also supports the social traditions of today’s society and attempts to explain the intangible, natural workings of the world.
