Ugatame is the creator of the universe in Kapauku culture, who created "...because he wanted to do so." In Kapauku mythology, Ugatame is held as the creator of humanity spirits, the laws of nature, earth and all transgressions. Ugatame has a dual nature of both masculine and feminine qualities and is referred to as the two entities. Similarly, Ugatame is responsible for both "evil" and "good", yet is neither themselves. The sun and the moon are manifestations of Ugatame; the only comprehensible form that humanity can perceive. They live beyond the sky, in a world similar to humanity's world.
