Who am I: Number V

[Mutawintji]

There was neither man, nor animal, birds, fishes, crabs, trees, stones, caves, ravines, grasses, nor forests; there was only the sky.

There was nothing brought together, nothing which could make a noise, nor anything which might move, or tremble, or could make noise in the sky.

Nothing existed. There was only immobility and silence in the darkness, in the night.

Let it be done! Let the emptiness be filled! Let there be light



The above is a 'selective' extract from the 'Popul Vuh' ... It is your first clue, unless you beg ... Haaaaa. There is only one guy on this forum that just may know this, but he iz in Germany, so we haven't gotta worry, and this is the second clue

Who am I: I am a forest, the most primitive forest of all, the first forest. If I was not first, you could not have followed.

Eden

Eden

Hmmmmmmmmm .... I wasn't expecting that. I don't know if thats close or not. But its certainly a good try.

But, the forest has a name and its not Eden. Eden was a garden, and if this forest is a garden then it has no flowers. (Third clue)

Mesopotamia perhaps?

[TermiMonster]

Amazon...(guess)

Hmmmmmm I have dim memory of Popul Vuh being something to do with the Mayans.

So perhaps the central American forest of Guatamala?

[tdrumnut]

The Black Forest?

[Mutawintji]

Mesopotamia perhaps?

Amazon...(guess)

No ... Sorry... I had to make this one hard as the others were getting them too easily.

Fourth clue: I mark the epoch between a non-metal age and a metal age. Nothing remains of the old age, nothing at all, I was born from its cooling ashes.

How I appear to you .....




I think this clue has blown it .... Haaaa

Sorry Arthur ... I posted on top of you. But your memory isn't so dim .. Not many have heard of the Popul Vuh.

The Black Forest?

wow ... Now I feel that I have made it too hard in order to defeat google. Google is allowed on this one.

I don't want to lie man, and I'm all fa not using google, but the great interweb wizard found me the answer. Now your first clue makes sense!

I didn't expect the forest to be that large, that far away or that light, but in hindsight it's elementary.

Algae

wrong ... But man o man, I was going to ask this question on the cyno bacteria forest and changed it at the last minute ... Far out

good try

Fifth clue: each side of my 'box' is 30 million light years across
