The First Human Steps Foot on Earth Framed

Developing within the Nommo’s ark during its descent to Earth from Sirius, the first human ancestors in Dogon cosmology begin to transform from their unarticulated form as Anagonna Bile and gain 7 articulations, mirroring the growth of the fetus in the womb. These first eight human ancestors will exit the Nommo’s ark (i.e. be born) in this form, and as they step foot on Earth, they gain 22 articulations and become “Inne” (persons). Inne represents the developed human being in Dogon cosmology. With these 22 articulations, the bodies of the first humans become complete, and they proceed to walk and breathe on earth, with their fish gills transformed into a form of terrestrial respiration. They carry their spiritual principles in their clavicles.
