Dogon from Estrellas Normales by Frank Cebreros

The Dogon, Mali’s original inhabitants, say they were visited 3000 years before our era by beings from Nyan Tolo, a satellite planet of the star they call Emme Ya. They arrived on an ark red as fire, which turned white once it touched upon Earth. These beings told them that Sirius, in the Orion constellation, has two companion stars: Emme Ya and Po Tolo. They claim the latter – invisible to the naked eye and very small, white and heavy, like the grain which provides their sustenance – is the origin of everything in this world. This second star was only discovered in 1862 with a potent telescope.
