NOW, "GOGA" WAS NOT NECESSARILY A BENEVOLENT GODDESS, HOWEVER, FOR, AT FIRST, INSTEAD OF BEQUEATHING IT AS A GIFT TO HER CHILDREN, SHE KEPT HER PRIMAL FIRE A SECRET, BUT A BOY STOLE A BRAND OF FIRE FROM HER, AND AS HE RAN FROM HER WRATH, HE ACCIDENTALLY SET A TREE ON FIRE. THOUGH "GOGA" TRIED TO STIFLE THE FIRE BY CALLING TO THE HEAVENS FOR RAIN, A LARGE SNAKE PRESERVED THE FLAME ON HIS TAIL AND THE FIRST HUMANS USED THIS SMOLDERING FLAME TO LIGHT THE FIRST FIRE. REALIZING THAT SHE HAD LOST HER SACRED POWER, SHE TAUGHT THE PEOPLE OF NEW GUINEA HOW TO WORK, PLAY, AND DO RITUAL WITH FIRE.
