The Iroquois’ “The World On the Turtles Back” is a specific type of story - a creation myth. One purpose of myth is to provide understanding for unanswerable questions, like how was the world created?, why are we here?, and what happens to us after we die? According to Larry Evers and Paul Pavich, Native American mythology partly exists to “remind the people of who and what they are, why they are in this particular place, and how they should continue to live here.” Make an argument for how “The World On The Turtles Back” fulfills each of these functions. Each should be a paragraph in length and cite sufficient evidence.
