What is the similarities between penobscot creation and Genesis book of the Bible?

For everyone's info, Penobscot = Native American people The main detail I'm aware of is that people were created from mud in Penobscot, from dust in Genesis. Otherwise, Glooscap/Gluskabe is not much like the God of Genesis, and he created based on an earth which was already fully formed, while God created the universe. Penobscot tradition gives lots of detail about how each animal came to be, while Genesis pretty much says, "God said let there be _______ and there was ______"


Who was the first person to be on earth?

Judeo-Christian-Moslem tradition teaches that Adam was the first man, then God took one of his ribs and made Eve.Navaho tradition says that First Man, 'Altsé Hastiin, and First Woman, 'Altsé 'Asdzáá, were formed from the clouds and emerged from the First WorldThe Cherokee story goes that people appeared on Earth after the animals and plants, and that only a brother and sister first existed. When the brother struck the sister with a fish and told her to multiply, she gave birth to a child seven days later and continued to do so every seven days until the land was crowded. This is the reason that women may have only one child a year.The Chinook believe that men were descended from the thunderbird and they swopped down into the valley and plucked women from the ground.To the Maori, Io is the Supreme Being and creates everything out of nothing. When he has finished with the universe, he creates Ranginui (Rangi), the Sky Father, and Papatuanuku (Papa), the Earth Mother. They produce many offspring who then separate the parents. It appears that all of the offspring are male and ask for a female. She tells them how to produce a female but they are confused and not able to succeed until Tane (one of the children) asks Papa for her advice. She tells him where to find the element they are missing. The brothers go, find the element, and assemble the woman. Tane breathes life into her, forming the earth formed maiden, Hine-ahu-one.To the Mayan, only Tepeu and Gucumatz existed. They sat and thought and what ever they thought came into being. Eventually they got bored because none of their creations could praise them, so they made beings of clay. The clay beings fell apart when wet, so they made beings of wood. The wood beings made trouble, so Tepeu and Gucumatz destroyed the Earth with a flood and started over. Mountain Lion, Coyote, Parrot and Crow helped Tepeu and Gucumatz form four new beings who became the ancestors of the K'iche' (Mayan People).To the Micmac, the Creator is Gisoolg. Gisoolg made everything, is genderless, and has no beginning or end. Gisoolg made Nisgam, the sun. Nisgam made people. Ootsitgamoo is the earth or land over which Nisgam looks and cares for. Ootsitgamoo was created by Gisloog. After all animals and plants were created, Gisoolg cause lightning to strike Ootsitgamoo. Where the lightning struck (the sand) was formed the shape of a man. The image was named Glooscap. Gisoolg struck Glooscap again with lightning and was given life. Glooscap was still unable to move. He could only watch the world go on around him. He asked Nisgam to give him freedom to move around Ootsitgamoo, and Nisgam gave Glooscap his freedom.To the Scandanavians: Odin and his brothers, Vili and Ve were walking along a shore one day when they cam across two logs. Odin gave them life. Vili formed their brains and gave them feelings. Ve gave them the senses of hearing and sight. These where the first man, Ask, and the first woman, Embla.
