When the Mayan gods created the Earth, they gave each tree, rock and animal a special mission. Once they were finished, they realized they forgot to assign the most important mission of all; the one that would carry every persons wishes from one place to another. Considering they had no corn or mud left, they took a jade stone and carved an arrow into it. They then blew onto the arrow to give it life and the arrow flew out and birthed the humming bird. A gentle animal that brings good energies.
This story originates from Mayan culture. Mayan civilization is now part of South America.
We think this myth is very intriguing because it shows that the Mayans believe animals carry gifts. We wonder if any other cultures think this too.
