Luiseno & Acjachemen (Juaneno) · mortal · Luiseno & Acjachemen (Juaneno) traditional religion; continuing · Recorded classification
Ae is the first woman of the coastal Acjachemen creation recorded by Boscana. After forming the first man, Ejoni, from the earth, the creator Nocuma made her; together the two are the primordial human couple of this account. The name is preserved only briefly in Boscana's text, which gives her no further narrative beyond her creation.
