The purpose of this paper is to investigate the creation story of the Santal tribe and its comparison with the creation stories of other faith. It primarily focuses on the role of Christian missionary Rev. Lars Olsen Skrefsrud’s effort to transform Santal society through the literary contribution. In addition to the Santal literature contribution, his mission among this tribe enhanced their world view and broaden their horizon and way of life through education and Gospel teachings. The core objective of this paper is to portray and delineate origin and early settlement of the Santals. However, narration of the creation story is not same as different authors penned them down them differently from different sources. This paper also focuses on the historiography of the Santal worldview and Santal culture.
