Romi Kumu is a major Goddess to the Baransama people of southeastern Colombia in South America. Here she is considered to be the Great Mother who created the world as well as everything in it. As such, she ruled the trees, the night, the earth, and of air.
She was also the Mother of all people and a great female shaman who made a great grill out of clay which she placed in the mountains. The grill became the sky. When she opened the "water door" to the sky, water come gushing onto the earth ... and as a result, Romi Kumu created all of the creatures.
