It's interesting on how language is bound to be surrounded by myths like this. It reminds me the Kaingang and their mythology - where they'd sprout out of the soil already speaking Kaingang, and with their dual social structure already established by the gods; while the other peoples would be "off-shoots" of the Kaingang and speak increasingly divergent versions of the Kaingang language.
