Sumario: The essay develops the theme of natural disasters through oral histories, such as hurricanes and floods experienced by the gunas, according to stories from Babigala". The information was processed and collected through an interview guide to a key informant, a traditional knowledge holder. In addition, virtual and physical bibliographic documents were reviewed. Characters such as Aiban and Galibe, who experienced the flood and hurricane, were identified. Also, it was evident that in the times of Aiban and Galibe, before the disasters, the people's attitude was not pleasant; they were perverted. One everyday omen was the frequent screeching of the wind as if they were birds. In Aiban and Galibe, the flood and hurricane destroyed communities; these devastating winds were called Sarwaibegun burwa, Wagiibegun burwa.
