In the Diné Bahane', she introduced the loom, and by teaching the ancestors how to weave, protected them from the winter. She also aided twins Naayéé' Neizgháni (Monster Slayer) & Tobadzischini (Born of Water) in defeating the Anaye, who threatened the people from Earth's surface

She's also present in the traditional cosmology of many different First Nations from northwestern Mexico & Southwestern US, such as the A:shiwi (Zuni) & Diné (Navajo). She's known as Na'ashjé'ii Asdzáá by the Diné.

Thank you!
