Atira (goddess)

[4][5] Atira holds a significant place in the spiritual beliefs of the Pawnees of North America, where she is revered as Earth Mother.

Esteemed for her nurturing and protective qualities, Atira symbolizes the very essence of life that springs from the earth.

Instead, they honored Atira by living in harmony with the land, deriving their sustenance from the wild bounty of the fields and forests.

Atira is considered the Sacred Mother of all life, with her influence most profoundly felt in the untouched landscapes that flourish with vitality and growth.

[8][9] Her daughter was Uti Hiata who taught the Pawnee people how to make tools and grow food.
