Eingana
In
Aboriginal mythology,
Eingana is a creator goddess and the mother of all
water,
animals and
humanity. She is a
snake goddess of
death who lives in the
Dream time. She has no
vagina; she simply grew in size and, unable to give birth to the life inside her, had the god
Barraiya open a hole with a spear near her
anus, so that labor could commence. Eingana holds a
sinew that is attached to all living things; if she lets go, the organism dies.
