Read the text The Maori Creation Myth: At first, there was nothing, or "Te Kore." Everything was dark. Soon, two gods appeared: Papa, or Mother Earth, and Rangi, or Father Sky.

Papa and Rangi had six children who lived between them, but there was a problem. Father Sky and Mother Earth were so close together that their children could barely see.

One by one, their children tried to separate them, but nothing worked. Then one child, Tane, had an idea. He lay on his back with his feet on Rangi and began to grow into a tall tree.

He grew taller and taller, slowly separating his parents until the Earth and sky were finally apart. For the first time, the children could see the world around them.

They looked at the Earth and sky and thought they were beautiful. They said, "Someone should share this place with us." So, Tane asked Papa how to create humans.

She told him to mold them out of red ochre, a sacred element. After finding the pigment, Tane first sculpted a woman in his mother's likeness. Then came man.

Papa and Rangi's children became gods of the forest, sea, food, weather, war, and peace. To this day, people live on the Earth, which remains separate from the sky.
