Creation Myth A creation myth from the Pima Indians of the American Southwest tells how the earth began Once upon a time there was a Being called Earth Doctor who made the earth from a small bit of dust Earth Doctor sang and danced and while he did so the earth formed under his feet When he waved his arms he created the sky But as he continued to dance the earth beneath his feet trembled and stretched and grew until the sky no longer fit So Earth Doctor made something else a spider to spin a web and weave together earth and sky shamrock spider Araneus trifolium
