Bumba [M'Bombo]'s vomiting reminds us of the Egyptian High God's creation by spitting and seed spilling.
According to the Bushongo creation myth, the only thing that existed in the world originally was a god named M'Bombo.
The first, Nyonye Ngana, made white ants but was not equal to the task and died as a result.
The ants, however, thankful for life, went searching for black earth and covered the barren sands to bury and honour their creator.
When the work of creation was completed, M'Bombo walked through the villages and said to the people, "Behold these wonders, they belong to you"[5] This article relating to an African myth or legend is a stub.
