Guarani Mythology
Guarani Mythology is the collection of traditional beliefs and stories of the Guarani people, an indigenous group from South America, primarily found in Paraguay, Brazil, and Argentina. Their mythology features a rich pantheon of gods, spirits, and mythical creatures, often reflecting their connection to nature and the environment.
Central to Guarani beliefs is the creation myth, which describes how the world and its inhabitants came to be. Important figures include Tupã, the god of creation, and Karai, the god of fire. These stories serve to explain natural phenomena and guide the moral values of the Guarani community.
