[S^erente on Tocantins river] "Waikaura> ... called his virgin daughter, bade [an ulcerous vagrant god] sit on her thighs" : that "virgin daughter" became impraegnated by that ulcerous vagrant god, who departed in a "whirlwind". |
|
"had a dream in which she held a kid in her lap. On waking up she found herself pregnant and in due course she gave birth to a baby daughter. But alas! The child had one goat's foot ." |
At Teotihuacan, Nanahuatzin voluntarily entred fire.; thereby he was cured of his scabs. |
[Papuans of Geelvink Bay] "kindled a great fire of iron-wood. When the flames blazed up he flung himself among the glowing embers, and immediately his shriveled skin peeled off, and all the scabs were" |
Tjazzi flew himself into a blazing fire; he was survived by |
|
|
transformed into pretious substances, including "coral". {cf. "Full fathom five ... his bones are coral made."} |

his daughter Skadi (who is known as the "Iron-wood goddess") who |
"could see her legs, one normal and one caprine. In the pond was a piece of ironwood which was placed there on the King's orders. |
Tecciztecatl is, as a snail-god, an animal whose gastropod "foot" is the most prominent bodily feature. |
|
chose a god as husband for herself, according to the appearance of his feet : because she herself wore skis on her own feet. |
When the Queen's cloven foot hit it, she was cured." {cf. the Empousai having "with one leg of brass and the other of an ass." ("E") |
|
|
(The name /SKADi/ may be etymologically cognate with /SCATology/.) |
The Empousai have one of their legs "of cow dung." ("E&L") |

testing by mortal by incognito supernatural entity
The S^erente ulcerous vagrant god was testing, incognito, the generosity of Waikaura>; |
when that generosity had been adequately demonstrated, he departed in a whirlwind. |
An angel was testing, incognito (S^pat.i^m 13:16), the steadfast resolve and generosity (S^pat.i^m 13:15) of a mortal couple; |
when that steadfastness had been adequately demonstrated, the angel departed amid a flame into the sky (S^pat.i^m 13:20). |
(The "whirlwind" can be regarded as a single foot, as in the case of [Maya god] Hu[n]-Racan.
The female's "one goat's foot" may suggest a possible sister to [Vaidik god] Aja Eka-pad.)
