Tobadzischini

Tobadzischini ("Child of Water"/"Born For Water") is a mythical hero from Navajo mythology who helped his brother Nayenezgani rid the world of the Anaye. He is sometimes considered the Navajo god of war and agriculture.[1] Nayenezgani appears to be a lord of light, while Tobadzischini, moist and dark, is his opposite, a lord of darkness.[2]
