N2  - Contains collection of origin legends and myths which ascribe certain geological forms and events to mighty powers,seen and unseen.They do not merely explain causes and effects; they mirror the folkways, cultural norms,and values of the community.The dominant motif is the indissoluble bond between humanity and nature.Nature is represented as an architect-sculptor, who designs and shapes the landscape in response to the behavior of human beings.Every unusual or noteworthy land mass is the outcome of a human act which has somehow affected the natural environment or the community
