Culture Of Kraken Island by Connor Minich https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd Made with mirth en-us 2019-03-26 18:20:33 UTC 2024-10-24 21:26:11 UTC hello@padlet.com Religion/Mythology/Folklore minichco https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/345409922 Our main religion is Burryism. This religion is pretty straight forward. Everyone who follows this religion has one task of worship.  The only step is sacrificing a dolphin to show how much you love Burry.   This originated from a god over 2000 years ago named Mr. Burry who was able to tame the kraken and save the island.  After the battle of these two beasts. Mr Burry turned to stone. The statue rests at the bottom at death mountains. 
It is consistently prayed to  

There is 2 different big folktales about the island. The first and the lesser known one is about  The Fish 
 and how it was a legendary beast but was killed by Mr Burrys bare hands. Before the fish passed he had children each child was placed in the Death Mountains. That is why they are primarily undiscovered. They had the power to change the mountains into a weird and dangerous maze. These children were very rich and there bodies were filled with treasure so before death they hid all of it inside the mountains. They changed the shape of the mountains just so people would never access the treasure. Children make sculptures of this fish. 

The other story on the island is completely aligned with the main religion. Its all about the kraken and how the kraken was tamed. The actual folklore is that our island could possibly be the actual kraken and every 2500 years the prophecy says the island will submerge and the kraken will comeback for vengeance and cause havoc all over the seven seas.  That´s when Mr Burry will come back from his deep slumber and slay the kraken one last time.

Our islanders only paint when the materials become available through trading or they can crush some sort of material to create a paint-like substance. . The mines at the northern part of the island there are the mines where many people get their clay and either keep it to create such pottery, or they bring it to the main city for trading. 

The pottery the islanders create are like the pottery that many Mayan creations. The children would make pots and clay creations of animals while the adults would make pots and clay creations of the old God, Mr. Burry. The pottery can be very expensive depending on if it is created by a child or an adult. People also create pottery or clay creations of a Kraken in honor of the island. One of the most famous clay creations is The Fish that was Killed from the God so long ago. This is popular for children to make. 

Paintings would be of some 2000 years ago when the old king was around. They would create these paintings through the stories they hear and the artifacts they find.  Paintings like the final dinner with the God. Mr. Burry before he went to tame the Kraken. Necklaces are also an art that is created by the people of the island. They get beads through the trading with natives or with other countries. These necklaces are very expensive through out the island and many people would even harm to get one. The most famous painting is of God Burry fighting the Kraken above. ]]> 2019-03-26 18:49:15 UTC https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/345421958 Song and Dance cliffordl https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/345839903 So in Kraken Island we are spiritual we worship Burryism because he was able to defeat the Kraken so we sacrifice dolphins in his well being. We have our island famous dance is called Voodoo 
Dada Juju and it's basically where you throw your arms up and run around like a wild monkey and to end it off you do a back flip and land on your side and flip on the ground like a dolphin on the dry ground 
The song that goes with it, it goes like this a group of people stand in a circle and cup their hands a go wow wowwwww wowwwww ew ga keke ga ga ga ew ga keke ga ga ga Repeat x10. And this is a spiritual dance of burryism because when the volcano erupted and the villagers built a village over it and Mr Burry came and defeated the Kraken and saved the village of more volcanoes and the Kraken so that is the dance to remember his great accomplishment.

That is were most of the poverty is at. Its rags made of cotton and other materials. The way they make these is they take a rock and a stick and go at it with a cotton ball. Then the sew it together. 
The southern side of the island is so much more rich than the north.  There clothing was gold and silver chain-mail. This is very expensive. The reason they do this is just to flex the money they have. It is made by very good professional blacksmiths deep deep inside the jungle who no one knows much about.]]> 2019-03-28 18:18:09 UTC https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/346287156 Food production, Distribution, and Agricultural Practices. shoudisc https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/346288369 The food production is not industrial. Its manual and personal. People are responsible to get your own food. You would be considered lucky to be a farmer because you would be able to grow rice, wheat, and apple trees. Farmers are only in the south part of the island and in the main city. The people in the north part of the island hunt for their. There is plenty of wild fruit such as grapes, bananas, apples, oranges and so on. There are also plenty of animals to hunt to eat as well.

So that could be going to the Ocean or having fun into the jungle because there is fun and games in the jungle. ]]> 2019-03-28 18:27:35 UTC https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/346291552 Golden Chain-mail minichco https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/346300508 2019-03-28 18:49:27 UTC https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/346300508 The Fish minichco https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/346623232 2019-03-29 16:25:25 UTC https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/346623232 Government shoudisc https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/347330997 We have monarchy, it is not similar to the 50 states. The king is passed down through heritage. The government taxes people with many goods that come through the port. . The king benefits the people by stabilizing the island. We have the same natural rights as Americans, Life ,Liberty, Private Property. We have the judiciary system from the US. No stealing murder fraud and treason are a few of the known and main laws. We have a military enforcing those laws and if caught they shoot on sight so people are very cautious when they think about breaking laws. Laws can get made through the King. He can decide to create any law he see fit. There is tax on the island as well. Our society is set up as everybody works for themselves except when shopping or trading comes in where the sellers depend on the buyers and vice versa. ]]> 2019-04-01 18:14:46 UTC https://padlet.com/minichco/z3tcah8k5hcd/wish/347330997
