Question
A god taking this form helped the Zuni hero twins destroy the Cloud-Swallower demon. A god taking this form leads humanity through four great caverns, and creates the other gods after separating from the sun god Tawa. A figure who took this form asked his wife Aso to answer the door while he hid. Minamoto no Yorimitsu killed a demon in this form called tsuchigumo (“tsoo-chee-GOO-mo”). A “grandmother” from Hopi myth takes this form. A figure in this form used a branch to capture Onini, a giant python, and later captured hornets, a fairy, and a leopard, the four most dangerous creatures in the world. A trickster of this form obtained the world’s stories from the sky god Nyame (“nee-AH-may”). For 10 points, name this form of the African trickster Anansi, who once trapped a village full of flies in his webs. ■END■
