COMPARE AND CONTRAST OF " THE WOLRD ON THE TURTLE'S BACK" AND "GENESIS 1"



COMPARE

• In Genesis 1 we have no world at the beginning , In the world on the turtle's neck we already have the sky world and ocean world.
• In Genesis 1 we have just one god , In the world on the turtle's back we have different gods.
• In the World on the turtle's map they celebrated evil by doing ritual to the bad brother.
• In the Genesis 1 the world was created by god and lasted seven days to be made , In the World on the turtle's back the world was created by the ancestors.

SIMILARITIES 

• The women were very alike in both stories they were the one's who committed the crime.
• Both stories have a sacred tree.
• Both stories had the brother that were jealous of one another.
• Both stories have the good brother and the bad brother.
• In both stories good and evil is needed to have a balance.

CONTRAST 

• The Genesis 1 it's a pice of information taken from the bible , the World on the tutle's back it's a myth.
• In the Genesis God made us humans in a different way ,  in the World on the tutle's back the good brother made us out of clay.
• In the Genesis 1 animals are dependent of humans , in the World on the turtle's back animals already existed and they were totally independent.
