"Spider Grandmother (Koyangwuti) is the special benefactor of the Hopi tribe. In the Hopi creation myths, Spider Grandmother created humans from clay (with the assistance of Sotuknang and/or Tawa), and was also responsible for leading them to the Fourth World (the present Earth.)" <a href="http://www.native-languages.org/spider-grandmother.htm"; rel="noreferrer nofollow">www.native-languages.org/spider-grandmother.htm</a>

"Spider Woman (Na'ashjéii Asdzáá)is one of the most important deities of traditional Navajo religion. Unlike the Hopi Spider Grandmother, the Navajo Spider Woman is not considered the creator of humans, but she is their constant helper and benefactor. Spider Woman was the advisor of the heroic twins Monster-Slayer and Born-for-Water, taught the people the arts of weaving and agriculture, and appears in many legends and folktales to "save the day," protect the innocent, and restore harmony to the world.

On the other hand, maybe she deserves a rest from pesky humans after weaving such a nice web.
