In Dogon cosmology, the third of the created divine Nommo was the Nommo Semi (Sacrificed Nommo), who was ritualistically sacrificed by Amma, the primordial Dogon creator God, to purify the universe. After killing Him and creating the planets and stars with His blood and body, Amma then resurrects Nommo Semi. Resurrected, Nommo Semi descends from the heavens in a celestial ark with humanity and all plants and animals. He lands on Earth with Sirius shining above Him, and exits with all living beings following Him. Nommo Semi then enters the first pond on Earth, where He takes the form of O Nommo (Nommo of the Pond), and proliferates life and the cosmic principles of Amma on Earth.
