The Creation of the Human Being
The creation of the Human Being- Valnei G. Lopes-1993,
oil on canvas , 15x10 inches (40x60cm)
Tup�, the supreme god, made all the human beings from a tree. The sacred tree of life. From one branch he made the male and from the other branch he made the female human creature.
In the picture above you can see the moment that
Tup�, the supreme god, makes man and woman.
The Indians taught so many things.
They tell us stories like this you can see above. We learned with the Indians how
to  build a thatch house. We have the clay utensils like clay pots, clay basins, wooden-pestles, dried shells of calabash, straw plaited works, and so on. All these things came from the Indians, and more:
The popular medicine that uses the plants
to cure several diseases.
Nowadays we are used to eat manioc and manioc flour like they did so long ago.
Smoking is a bad habit we learned with them.
