In the Polynesian myth, the heroic god Tane spent time among the humans and became close to them. Meanwhile, the god Atea was battling for power with Tane. In order to help Tane, the thunder god, Fatutiri, gave Tane the gift of the power of lightning. He set one condition, though: Tane was not to use it against Atea until Atea was old. Tane kept his promise, and waited until Atea was gray-haired. At that time, the gods Tane and Atea battled in a fire-making contest. Using the lightning, Tane won; his fires couldn’t be extinguished. Tane killed the god Atea, but set Atea’s spirit free. After this battle, fire was given to humans as a gift because it had been made stable. What can you infer about the ancient Polynesians and their relationship with the gods.
