Discover the world’s mythologies
Mythologis.com is a richly illustrated site dedicated to mythologies, religious beliefs and legends of civilizations around the world and their representations in the arts.
The term mythology applies to two distinct concepts:
1) to the set of deities and the legends that concern them, adopted by a tribe or a nation: Greek mythology, Scandinavian mythology, etc. ;
2) to the science of myths, i.e. to the critical research of their origin, their meaning, and their development within a community.
When man's mind seeks reason
Why are humans inclined to believe in deities? Insights lie in the beliefs of simpler cultures. Primitive societies see nature as imbued with spiritual identities, invisible yet ever-present, that can be influenced by shamans or sages. These spirits, often taking human or animal forms, exhibit human-like behaviors – walking, talking, and expressing emotions like anger or joy.
