[quote:Anonymous Coward 76409967:MV8zMjM4NDkyXzY5OTkxODg1XzE2M0UyRDM5] [quote:Fancypantz:MV8zMjM4NDkyXzY5OTkxODUyXzNERjRDNkQ3] [quote:Fancypantz:MV8zMjM4NDkyXzY5OTkxNjQ1X0IwMTU0RjNG] The ancient stories in America have an animal retrieving a bit of earth from the depths. A muskrat, turtle, or waterfowl, raven, or water beetle. When the world was nothing but water. Those that lived in the sky, the woman fell from heaven toward the abyss. Greeks say fire. Either way, the tales of creation say in all that great things take place when a power or spirit associated with the sky comes down to earth. Goes with the dream. [/quote] The coming race came up.

Duat (pronounced "do-aht") (also Tuat and Tuaut or Akert, Amenthes, Amenti, or Neter-khertet) was the realm of the dead in ancient Egyptian mythology. It was the realm of the deity Osiris and the residence of other gods and supernatural beings. The Duat was the region through which the sun god Ra traveled from west to east during the night, and where he battled Apep. It was also the place where people's souls went after death for judgement, though that was not the full extent of the afterlife.[1] Burial chambers formed touching-points between the mundane world and the Duat, and spirits could use tombs to travel back and forth from the Duat.
