The Maker of the world
With an enormous effort of concentration he picked up the stone chip and began to trace stripes across the wall. With each firm repetition of the stroke the line became a groove and the groove was visible and generated shadow in the depth of its small valley. Oblivious to the contained excitement that he noticed behind him he followed the process for hours and during the dark days of winter that locked them in the cave. And over the months the lines took on sinuous or broken shapes; kind circles formed from several strokes points that joined parallel lines and when he separated from the wall for the umpteenth time he could smile satisfied with his work. The entire tribe trembled seeing the new wall; a wall that they did not know now and that presented itself as a magical threat before them. They did not know what it meant or what the author had wanted to express with all those signs but they clearly perceived the immense power they contained. Tomorrow.Tomorrow when the sun set after the first day of the cycle of new life with the large bonfire and the tribe gathered the explanation of that magic would give them as much security as it generated fear in them now. It had always been like this and they hoped it UAE Phone Number would be the same this time. The day arrived and passed slowly arrested by excitement and restlessness; as if both formed a barrier that the sun could not force. But the night finally came and the children brought the firewood and in the chamber at the back of the immense cave the women accumulated food to celebrate the new life when the sprouts came out of the earth and gave them back the strength lost in the winter. They ate and the voices faded as the shaman stood up and approached the wall that everyone pretended to ignore.

Then came absolute silence and the shaman began to move and speak affectionately to the earth that stood vertically forming the wall: Water will flow from your wrinkled skin and go down towards our cave. And it will go down as I have painted because you obey me and the water will not leave the two lines that I have marked earth. At the edges of the water the beasts that we will hunt will drink as you want us to hunt without killing the mothers or the offspring; and the beasts will approach meekly to drink the water that I have painted. And you earth will fill the trees that I have painted with fruits and the women will go to collect them where I have painted.
