Gambara

A PEOPLE'S ORIGIN LEGEND IN WHICH THE DECISIVE ACTORS ARE TWO WOMEN. Gambara goes to the goddess and not the god; the goddess gives her a trick; the god is caught by it and names the people in the act of being caught. The record says what the Origo says and does not soften the joke into a miracle.
