(A talk of mine, a tumbuna story they told about man's creation, that talk I thought about telling. Our grandfathers had a river above named Esimbogot that lay down on top a cliff. There were no people at the river. It became dark and then dawn, a place hulum sindee, there were no people. There were no people, but a man came up [a man was created], came up at Ulangum go i go, came up at the base of a Soomboogool tree.)

(He [Unemi] came up and thought, "there's no people just animals". He was thinking this at ab hulum sindee, and thinking on it he created people. He created man, our tumbuna, he creared man. That was Unemi. Our fathers, tumbuna saw Unemi. He went and made man, his name was hidden -tuhum?- at first, he opening his eyes? There were 3 people Mooboogul, Wegil and Unemi, they created man. They keft and man woke up. ? they were and Unemi said "you go to the food garden!" "Walk to the food gaden!" he said. Having said that they walked and walked and Unemi went into the belly .)

(he went in deep inside. He smoked and said "you get up!" "you get up" he said. To make him alive he said "you io" he said. Just thought, then lying down said "you get up!" He saw it was good, the chest here was put good and he lay down. He spoke 3 things, father said "become alive!", "outside is no life", "you become alive!" Having said that [the man] got up and said "father are you there?", "father you will be." Having said that [Unemi] said "You see me". And so [the man] said "Father I will eat sweet potato", "sweet potato", "enough I will go up", "sweet potato", "I will go up singing the name". So having said that the name sweet potato was. That, he [Unemi] said "I am your father", Unemi said "I am your father".)

(Saying that he put -something?- man. Unemi went into the belly and he [man] came alive. [Unemi] came out? First born was alive? The woman Isigatom Embam, -no- Hogum Embam was with the animals, then went and saw Unemi alone. She talked to Unemi. "We" she said. she said to Tumim, who had got a wife. Tumim was with her and she said "we will make a man". Tumim said "I don't know how, my work is not to be a father for us", "I won't do it." Having said that Mooboogul and Wegil showed him how. Showed him and slept with him. He saw a child, they made a child inside the belly.)

(Wegil and Mooboogul created a child in the womb. [She - Embam] went up and said toTumim "You said you wouldn't show me", "I saw two people", "They showed me the road and I'll show you" she said. She showed Tumim. Having shown him a person was created inside. This is my talk.)

(Went up and Tum washed. That day he? spoke about the behaviour that animals have, he go that behaviour and put it with people. He put it and children were born. Man was created and Tum's firstborn was born. Ingil and Wa were born, then Maha, Semik, Yanging and Soloobu were born, Ingis family we are. Scattered and my little talk was something I heard from my grandparents long ago. My little talk is like that.)
