Tropical Hummock
‘Hummock, hillock, mound, rise, outcrop, knoll, or small hill are all synonyms of a lot of earth piled naturally in one place as a singular entity, or as a group that inspired storytellers to invent tales about their creation. Writing and storytelling are imaginative activities that gives public form to a personal interpretation made from personal knowledge or a private response to surprizes come across in the natural world. The tropical regions are full of these odd mounds that are evocative of ancient burials found in many civilizations—something may be hidden here and someone has a story to tell.’
