according to the boshongo people of central africa, in the beginning there was only darkness, water, and the great god bumba. one day bumba, in pain from a stomach ache, vomited up the sun. the sun dried up some of the water, leaving land. still in pain, bumba vomited up the moon, the stars, and then some animals: the leopard, the crocodile, the turtle, and finally man. this creation myth, like many others, tries to answer the questions we all ask. why are we here? where did we come from? the answer generally given was that humans were of comparatively recent origin, because it must have been obvious, even at early times, that the human race was improving in knowledge and technology. so it can��t have been around that long, or it would have progressed even more. for example, the book of genesis placed the creation of the world at 9 am on october the 23th, 4,004 bc. on the other hand, the physical surroundings, like mountains and rivers, change very little in a human life time. they were therefore thought to be a constant background, and either to have existed for ever as an empty landscape, or to have been created at the same time as the humans. ����(j��)�зDz�ɣ���˵Ă��f��̫��ֻ�кڰ���ˮ�͂�������񱼰͡�һ��������θʹ�l(f��)�����I�³�̫ꖡ�̫��Ƹ��˲��ֵ�ˮ�������˴�������DZ�����Ȼθʹ��ֹ�����³����������dz���Ȼ���³�һЩ��(d��ng)�����籪���{�~�����������������
