[Study] Myths Encyclopedia - Corn


Corn

First grown in Mexico about 5,000 years ago, corn soon became the most important food crop in Central and North America. Throughout the region, Native Americans, Maya, Aztecs, and other Indians worshiped corn gods and developed a variety of myths about the origin, planting, growing, and harvesting of corn (also known as maize).

Corn Mother: How Corn Was Given to the Penobscot
When Glooscap lived on earth, there were no people yet. But one day, when the sun was high, a youth appeared and called him "Uncle, brother of my mother." This young man was born from the foam of the waves, foam quickened by the wind and warmed by the sun. It was the moistness of water, the motion of the wind and the warmth of the sun that gave the youth life. And the youth lived with Glooscap and became his chief helper.
Now after these two powerful beings had created all manner of things, there came to them, as the sun was shining at high noon, a beautiful girl. She was born of the wonderful earth plant, and of the dew, and of warmth.
"I am love," said the maiden.
