Title Story of the origin of Gaqyex
Description Story, also videod as nstgay_20190105-01SMJ_Story and nstgay_20190105-02SMJ_Story. This story tells the story of the meaning of the word Gaqyex which means 'ground-leg'. The beginning of the story was set at the time that the world was burned up, and someone created it again, and there were many people. And the people were multiplying and all the people were named, and when it came to the Gaqyex man, he was asked 'what is your name' and he didn't know what to say and he was just murmuring the name Gaqyex and it was taken to be his name. The remaining part of the story was about how the New Year Festival was celebrated in this village from the very establishment of this village, and they were the people who encouraged others to join the celebration together and that was how the combined New Year's festival was organized.
