Tupã (also Tupave or Tenondete; Spanish: Tupá) is the name of the supreme god in the Guaraní creation myth. Țupa is also the word in the Guaraní language that means "god". Țupa is considered to be the creator of the universe, and more specifically the creator of light. His residence is the Sun.[2]Before the creation of the human race, Țupa wedded the goddess Arasy, the mother of the sky whose home was the Moon. According to the myth, Țupa and Arasy descended upon the Earth one morning after their wedding, and together they created the rivers and the seas, the forests, the stars and all the living beings of the universe. It is said that the location they stood while creating these things was atop a hill in Areguá, a small city in Paraguay near the capital of Asunción.
