This is another period of oriental cosmogony, that of the irruption of subterranean waters and rain, which in the bible is posterior to Adam. The name of the Zemis is of doubtful meaning, probably _Coatris-quia_, hollow-quite. _Coa_ or _Cua_ was the name of ancient hollow temples all over America. _Quia_ is found in _Quisqueia_ oldest name of Hayti or the _great_ (land) _universal_. _10th Event._ _Taragava-el_ and _Corocora_ or _Epileguanita_, two male Zemis of the woods and hunters, made the trees and beasts. This includes probably two events anterior to the men, unless they be men. The meanings of these Zemis which might guide us, are quite doubtful. _Taraguva_ resembles _Tuyra_ and also _Turei_ heaven; but _Epileguanita_ was probably the ancient god of the _Caracol_ or Beastly-men, since it was represented by a beast or quadruped; while all the other Zemis as men and women. _Ili-guanita_ would mean in Haytian _children of the people_. Therefore I presume that these are personifications of the ancient hunters, or men of the woods with the beastly and savage men of early times. Roman calls the second _Corocore_, synonyme of _Caracara_. Part II. _Antidiluvian History and Flood._ _11th Event._ JAIA-EL rebels against his father JAIA and wants to kill him; a warfare, in which _Jaia-El_ is killed by his father, who puts his bones into a gourd. _Higuera_, or _Hibuera_, and people the land of that name. This refers to the fall of man and the wars of the Titans. The name for bones is omitted, it would perhaps afford another clue. Many American nations venerate and animate bones. Dangleria says, that _Jaia_ peopled all the islands of the sea with these bones. _12th Event._ JAIA being childless marries _Itiba-Jatuvava_ from whom he has 4 twin sons called _Dimivan_, who became afterwards _Cara-cara-cols_ or the great Cara-cols, the great beastly beings; but their mother dies at their birth. _Itiba_ means woman ancient and alludes perhaps to _Thibet_, refuge, or land of Noah. (_I_, is the article _the_). _Jatuvava_ perhaps Japhet-father, but in Aruac _Kati-uiua_ means the moon heavenly. The name of _Dimivan_ is remarkable, being identic with the _Demavends_ or antidiluvians of Persia, called _Dawand_ in the Zendavesta, the _Demoi_ or old people of the Pelasgians, the _Demons_ of many nations. The _Caras_ and _Cols_ are found all over America and Asia.(69) _13th Event._ AHIACAVO (grand father) or _Baia-manicoel_ an ancestor of the _Dimivan_, forms the nation of CON-EL, at _Basamanaco_, and invents agriculture, with the art of making cakes and bread.
