89. Historical Records Of Water-Beings Brief accounts of waterbeings in chinese folklore, early Indian mythology, Greek mythology and African mythology. http://www.water-consciousness.com/4history.htm

WATER ~ CONSCIOUSNESS HISTORICAL RECORDS OF WATER-BEINGS Beings who lived in Water, half-humanoid and half-fish, have been credited with the founding and origins of many civilizations on Earth. WATER-BEINGS have been described as responsible for teaching and assisting humanity in areas such as agriculture, arts, cosmology, laws, mathematics, temple-building and music. Robert Temple in his book "The Sirius Mystery" (1997, Destiny Books, Rochester, pp.273-315) offers an extensive research on the records of fish-tailed water creatures in past civilizations, with particular emphasis on the modern 'Dogon Tribe' of Mali, Africa. Therefore, we will only give an overview of the wide distribution of the records available and we refer the reader to Temple's book for details. FUXI & CANG JING (or NU GUA). Bas relief of a Chinese tomb, second century A.D. Chinese Tradition considers FUXi and his wife Nu Gua (or Cang Jing) to be the Founders of Chinese Civilization. (From Robert Temple's: "The Sirius Mystery", 1997, Fig. 50). The most ancient records are perhaps those found in Chinese Folklore. Water-Beings such as river gods, supernatural fish and water spirits have been a part of Chinese tradition for millennia.

DRAGONS!!! Dragons! Dragons! The mere mention of the word would strike fear into the hearts of men. Their hearts would race, as all men, no matter how big or small, imagined that he would have to confront a larger than life, fire-breathing dragon. Today, all that remains is dragon art, memorabilia and other items that cannot hurt us. People today believe that dragons never existed. Personally I believe that we, the human race with the help of dragonslayers wiped out this extraordinary race simply because we feared them.

96. English I- Mythology Unit Some aspects of the chinese myths differ from others. The general format of thechinese creation myths is an egg was the first thing in the emptiness. http://www.prs.k12.nj.us/Schools/PHS/English_Dept/English_I/1995/myth-research1.

In the Chinese creation myths there is a connection between the myth and culture through the family structure and the land/nature. There is little or no connection between other aspects of the culture and myths. Some aspects of the Chinese myths differ from others. This is caused by the handing down of myths orally. The general format of the Chinese creation myths is an egg was the first thing in the emptiness. Inside the egg was chaos and the first god, Pangu (male). When the egg broke the universe was split into the heavens (yang) and the Earth (yin). After the breaking Pangu had to hold the heavens from crushing the earth. He lived ten thousand years. He grew ten feet every day. He died when he decided to go to sleep one day. When he died his body became the features of the earth and the animals. Then, Nunga (female) who is a human god except for her dragon tail instead of legs, comes along and admires the beauty of nature, but wants more than simple animals. She makes the people from the clay of the Yellow River. The hand made humans are superior to the ones made from the clay soaked rope. Then another god, Gong-Gong breaks the world only to be fixed again by Nunga. The family is most clearly defined in the Chinese creation myths. The Yang and Yin represent everything. The Yang is the male and is the aggressive principal in nature. It is also stands for light, heat, and dryness. The Yin is the female and is the submissive in nature. It also stands for darkness, cold, and moisture. This is where the family structure in the culture comes from. The male is the dominant in the family while the female has to obey the males. The forms of rank in the Chinese family are very complex. In some cases the son has power of the mother.

97. Chinese Creation And Flood Myth 20022003. Return to Folktales from China, edited by DL Ashliman. DL Ashliman sfolktexts , a library of folktales, folklore, fairy tales, and mythology. http://www.pitt.edu/~dash/chinaflood.html

A Chinese Creation and Flood Myth From the Miao People The Miao have no written records, but they have many legends in verse, which they learn to repeat and sing. The Hei Miao (or Black Miao, so called from their dark chocolate-colored clothes) treasure poetical legends of the creation and of a deluge. These are composed in lines of five syllables, in stanzas of unequal length, one interrogative and one responsive. They are sung or recited by two persons or two groups at feasts and festivals, often by a group of youths and a group of maidens. The legend of the creation commences: Who made heaven and earth? Who made insects? Who made men? Made male and made female? I who speak don't know. Heavenly King made heaven and earth, Ziene made insects, Ziene made men and demons, Made male and made female. How is it you don't know? How made heaven and earth? How made insects? How made men and demons? Made male and made female? I who speak don't know. Heavenly King was intelligent, Spat a lot of spittle into his hand, Clapped his hands with a noise
