Description:The god had two sons, !Xoma and Kha//’an. The boys went hunting and killed an eland. Lions came and killed the boys in turn, and buried them in the eland’s stomach contents (chyme). The father was helped to track the boys by a turtle who put his head into the coals of the fires they had made along their journey. At the last fire the coals were hot, and the turtle's head was burned, so they knew the eland's death place was nearby. When they reached it, the god immediately saw that his sons were buried in the chyme. Then he asked all the animals in turn to dance, but his children still did not emerge. So he ung a meteor, "this fire that hangs in the sky and kills people," up in a tree. When he called the meteor down onto the eland's death place, it blasted through the chyme and !Xuma and Kha//'an jumped out. They cooked the eland meat and ate well. They took the rest of the meat home and the lions had none.
