Hello, this question is incomplete. The complete question would be:

"Read the excerpt from the Maori creation myth.: The god of forests and birds wedged himself between Rangi and Papa, his back to Papa and his feet against Rangi. Using his legs, he began to move the way trees grown in the forest. Slowly but surely, he pushed his legs upward until his parents were wrenched apart.

Read the excerpt from the Haida creation myth: Before the chief could move, his daughter handed the child this new toy to play with. This time, knowing the treasure that lay inside, the child turned back into Raven, who snatched the box in his beak and flew up through the smoke hole in the ceiling. Once away from the Sky Chief, Raven released the Sun from its confinement. Light shone across the entire earth, illuminating mountains, rivers, and oceans.
