PAGEABE The creator deity of the Tukano Indians. In the beginning was Page Abe, the sun, and Nyami Abe, the moon. Having no wife of his own, Nyami Abe tried to force the sun god's wife. Hearing of this, Page Abe deprived the moon god of his headdress and ordered him to keep away from his family. After this dispute, Page Abe created the earth and put on it animals, plants and men. His own daughter, Abe Mango, descended to earth to help teach men how to live well, teaching them the use of fire, building, pottery, weaving and cookery.
