A creation myth explains how the universe, earth, and life on earth began. “The World on the Turtle's Back” is an example of an Iroquois creation myth.
Long before the world was created there was an island, floating in the sky, upon which the Sky People lived. They lived quietly and happily. No one ever died or was born or experienced sadness. However one day one of the Sky Women realized she was going to give birth to twins.
According to the Iroquois creation story, the world was created when the pregnant Sky Woman fell from the floating island in the sky, down to the vast ocean underneath.
