North America mythology
Pawnee was an indigenous tribe from the center of North America that lived in the middle basin of the river Platte, in the current Nebraska and Kansas.
The celestial vault represented the supreme divinity, in particular the Morning and Night Stars. The tribe witnessed shocking human sacrifices of captured women. They dressed and got ready for rip off the heart with a knife, to then leave the body in the plains. The rite was abolished in 1816, when Petalesharo, leader of the tribe, saved a young comanche who was about to be sacrificed.
Atira was the goddess of Earth and Star of the Morning. She was the woman of Tirawa, the creator God. Her earthly manifestation was the corn, which symbolized the life that provided the Mother Earth.
(163693) Atira combines the sensory perceptions (Earth-Moon system) with the ability to analyse (Mercury). It is related with the observation and analysis of the physiological and behavioral reactions of another person by a group, like in the movies "The Recruit" (2003) and "Phone Booth" (2002).
