SUPERSYMMETRY FROM A BRAIDED POINT-OF-VIEW

We show that one-dimensional superspace is isomorphic to a nontrivial but consistent limit as q --> -1 of the braided line. Supersymmetry is identified as translational invariance alone this line. The supertran slation generator and covariant derivative are obtained in the limit i n question as the left and right derivatives of the calculus on the br aided line.
