Inuit Myths About Creation



The traditional account of the Inuit people is that the trickster in the form of Raven created the world. When the waters forced the ground up from the deep Raven stabbed it with his beak and fixed it into place. This first land was just big enough for a single house occupied by a single family: a man, his wife and their son, Raven who had fixed the land. The father had a bladder hanging over his bed. After much pleading by Raven the father allowed the boy to play with it. While playing Raven damaged the bladder and light appeared. The father not wanting to have light always shining took the bladder from the boy before he could damage it further. This struggle is the origin of day and night.
Version 2
In Inuit mythology, Sedna is the goddess of the sea and marine animals such as seals. A creation myth, the story of Sedna shows how she came to rule over Adlivun, the Inuit underworld. Sedna is also known as Arnakuagsak or Arnaqquassaaq (Greenland) and Satsuma Arnaa (Mother of the Deep, West Greenland) and Nerrivik (northern Greenland) or Nuliajuk (District of Keewatin, Northwest Territories). She is sometimes known by other names by different Inuit groups such as Arnapkapfaaluk (big bad woman) of the Copper Inuit from the Coronation Gulf areaand Takannaaluk (Igloolik).





Other Versions
A number of versions of the Sedna legend exist. In one legend Sedna is a giant, the daughter of the creator-god Anguta, with a great hunger that causes her to attack her parents. Angered, Anguta takes her out to sea and throws her over the side of his kayak. As she clings to the sides, he chops off her fingers and she sinks to the underworld, becoming the ruler of the monsters of the deep. Her huge fingers become the seals, walrus and whales hunted by the Inuit.
In another version of the legend she is dissatisfied with men found for her by her father, and so she marries a dog. Her father is so angry at this that he throws her into the sea, and when she tries to climb back into the boat he cuts off her fingers. Her fingers become the first seals and she becomes a mighty sea goddess. When she is angered someone is sent to wash her hair, (which she is unable to do herself without hands) after which she releases the animals to the hunters.
In the Netsilik Region, the story states that Nuliayuk was a mistreated orphan. One day the people tried to get rid of her by attempting to drown her by chopping off her finger tips. But the fingertips would transform to seals and walruses. Eventually Nuliayuk marries a Sculpin, and now lives in the sea controlling all sea mammals.
Other versions of the legend depict Sedna as a beautiful maiden who rejects marriage proposals from the hunters of her village. When an unknown hunter appears, Sedna's father agrees to give her to him as wife in return for fish. Sedna's father gives Sedna a sleeping potion and gives her to the hunter who takes her to a large nest on a cliff, revealing to her his true form, a great raven. She wakes surrounded by birds. Her father attempts to rescue her but, her husband, the bird creature, becomes angry, causing a great storm. In desperation, Sedna's father throws her into the raging sea. Attempting to cling to the kayak her hands freeze and her fingers fall off becoming the creatures of the sea. She falls to the bottom of the sea and grows a fish tail.
Sedna is kidnapped by a bird creature, in yet another version. Her father then leaves in his kayak to rescue her from the floating ice-island where she is imprisoned while the bird creature is away. The bird creature, enraged by her disappearance, calls to a spirit of the sea to help him. The Sea Spirit locates the Kayak with the two humans aboard and creates huge waves to kill them. Her father throws Sedna overboard in the hope that this will appease the angry sea god. Sedna clings to the kayak but her father grabs a little axe and chops three of her fingers off before striking her on the head. The three fingers each become a different species of seal. The stroke to her head sends Sedna to the ocean floor where she resides, commanding the animals of the sea.

The varying legends each give different rationales for Sedna's death. In each version the father takes her to sea in his canoe, severing her fingers and hands. And in each version she fell to the sea bottom to become the Goddess of Sea Creatures where she became a vital deity, worshiped by hunters who depended on her goodwill to supply food. Generally considered a vengeful goddess, hunters must placate and pray to Sedna to release sea animals for the hunt.

Know Your RIGHTS! Know The LAW!

                    What Is The Magna Carter??

This Document Was Written In 1215

Magna Carta Libertatum (Medieval Latin for "the Great Charter of the Liberties"), commonly called Magna Carta (also Magna Charta; "Great Charter"), is a charter of rights agreed to by King John of England at Runnymede, near Windsor, on 15 June 1215. First drafted by the Archbishop of Canterbury to make peace between the unpopular King and a group of rebel barons, it promised the protection of church rights, protection for the barons from illegal imprisonment, access to swift justice, and limitations on feudal payments to the Crown, to be implemented through a council of 25 barons. Neither side stood behind their commitments, and the charter was annulled by Pope Innocent III, leading to the First Barons' War. After John's death, the regency government of his young son, Henry III, reissued the document in 1216.

stripped of some of its more radical content, in an unsuccessful bid to build political support for their cause. At the end of the war in 1217, it formed part of the peace treaty agreed at Lambeth, where the document acquired the name Magna Carta, to distinguish it from the smaller Charter of the Forest which was issued at the same time. Short of funds, Henry reissued the charter again in 1225 in exchange for a grant of new taxes. His son, Edward I, repeated the exercise in 1297, this time confirming it as part of England's statute law.

The charter became part of English political life and was typically renewed by each monarch in turn, although as time went by and the fledgling English Parliament passed new laws, it lost some of its practical significance. At the end of the 16th century there was an upsurge in interest in Magna Carta. Lawyers and historians at the time believed that there was an ancient English constitution, going back to the days of the Anglo-Saxons, that protected individual English freedoms. They argued that the Norman invasion of 1066 had overthrown these rights, and that Magna Carta had been a popular attempt to restore them, making the charter an essential foundation for the contemporary powers of Parliament and legal principles such as habeas corpus. Although this historical account was badly flawed, jurists such as Sir Edward Coke used Magna Carta extensively in the early 17th century, arguing against the divine right of kings propounded by the Stuart monarchs. Both James I and his son Charles I attempted to suppress the discussion of Magna Carta, until the issue was curtailed by the English Civil War of the 1640s and the execution of Charles.

The political myth of Magna Carta and its protection of ancient personal liberties persisted after the Glorious Revolution of 1688 until well into the 19th century. It influenced the early American colonists in the Thirteen Colonies and the formation of the American Constitution in 1787, which became the supreme law of the land in the new republic of the United States. Research by Victorian historians showed that the original 1215 charter had concerned the medieval relationship between the monarch and the barons, rather than the rights of ordinary people, but the charter remained a powerful, iconic document, even after almost all of its content was repealed from the statute books in the 19th and 20th centuries. Magna Carta still forms an important symbol of liberty today, often cited by politicians and campaigners, and is held in great respect by the British and American legal communities, Lord Denning describing it as "the greatest constitutional document of all times – the foundation of the freedom of the individual against the arbitrary authority of the despot".

In the 21st century, four exemplifications of the original 1215 charter remain in existence, two at the British Library, one at Lincoln Cathedral and one at Salisbury Cathedral. There are also a handful of the subsequent charters in public and private ownership, including copies of the 1297 charter in both the United States and Australia. The original charters were written on parchment sheets using quill pens, in heavily abbreviated medieval Latin, which was the convention for legal documents at that time. Each was sealed with the royal great seal (made of beeswax and resin sealing wax): very few of the seals have survived. Although scholars refer to the 63 numbered "clauses" of Magna Carta, this is a modern system of numbering, introduced by Sir William Blackstone in 1759; the original charter formed a single, long unbroken text. The four original 1215 charters were displayed together at the British Library for one day, 3 February 2015, to mark the 800th anniversary of Magna Carta.

Native Americans Have No Fear Of Aliens - Here's Why

Native Americans Have No Fear Of Aliens - Here's Why

70 Years Since Roswell!!!

It’s nearly 70 years since aliens crashed to earth near the town of Roswell in New Mexico. It was in July 1947 that the alien’s space craft was allegedly hit by lightning and crashed into the desert. In 1997 Colonel Philip J Corso wrote a book

“The Day After Roswell”

full of information anyone would need on the subject of Roswell.

It was a New York Times best seller.

Its 20 years since the book was written and still most of the world is unaware of all the information regarding Roswell, unless you have a great interest in the subject and do your own research you are not going to know about any of this. The mainstream media is not going to cover the story, they just hope it will go away and it never has. I myself have only just read the book and it is fascinating. It explains so much and fills in so many gaps. Many new forms of technology were gleaned from the wreckage. Initially the alien life forms both dead and alive were kept by the US armed forces at 509th base not far from the crash site it was then transferred on to Fort Riley in Kansas. The debris was shipped to Fort Bliss, Texas, home of the 8th Army Air Force, here it was analysed and some was sent to Wright Airfield Ohio and the rest was sent to Fort Riley in Kansas.

Ex-CIA: Roswell UFO Was Alien And There Were Dead ETs:

Major Philip J Corso was stationed at Fort Riley during 1947 and saw something one night in July that would change his view of the world forever. He found stored in a crate inside a thick glass container a strange body. It was a four foot human shaped being with arms, six fingered hands and thin legs and feet, it appeared to have pale grey skin. It had a large head and huge almond shaped eyes and a tiny nose and mouth. Inside the crate he also found an Army Intelligence document stating that the being was retrieved from a craft that had crash landed near Roswell.

The Major tried to put the incident behind him, although the image of the alien being he saw that night never faded from his memory. In 1961 Major Corso was promoted to Lieutenant Colonel and went to work at the Pentagon. He was now under the command of General Trudeau. Lieutenant Colonel Corso was put in charge of a filing cabinet full of materiel that was classed as foreign technology. Inside the cabinet were the remains of some of the objects found at the Roswell crash site. He found inside the cabinet, tiny glass-like wires, thin plastic circuits, elliptical eye pieces, and a grey silver foil like cloth, a short stubby flashlight that emitted a beam and a headband with an electrical signal device on either side. These items were secretly leaked to large corporations who were working on similar projects at this time. The new alien technology would help them with their research and development in these areas, initially the items were used in the armed forces and eventually they would appear in the mainstream.

Soldier Breaks 44-Year Silence Over Roswell:

500 Military Men Saw the UFOs The tiny glass wires were fibre optics, the thin plastic circuits were computer chips, the elliptical eye pieces became night vision goggles, the grey silver foil like cloth became body armour such as kevlar, the short stubby flashlight emitted a laser beam and the headband was supposedly used to telepathically control the space craft. This is one of the reasons why technology has advanced so much in the last fifty years; we have been reverse engineering alien technology found at Roswell and other UFO crash sites. All of this technology was leaked out to the general public in secret. The governments of the world were terrified of the aliens and what they could do, so the whole story was hushed up and still is to this day. Armed forces were terrified that the Russians would find out about all the technology that was retrieved from Roswell.

The Russian Roswell: Last Living Eye-Witness, A KGB Colonel:

Speaks Out They even kept the information from the CIA as they didn’t trust them at all; they felt anything the CIA knew the KGB would know. They didn’t even want other US armed forces to know what they were working on. They were probably working on the
