About Mythologis

Why Mythologis exists

The internet is full of mythology summaries. Most of them paraphrase the same Wikipedia paragraph and call it a day. Mythologis is the opposite, every article is built from primary sources (the Theogony, the Eddas, the Bhagavata Purana, the Pyramid Texts, etc.) and read against the modern academic consensus.

The mission, in one sentence: build the world's largest, most accurate, most readable encyclopedia of mythology, free for anyone with a browser.

What you'll find here

• 109+ in-depth articles spanning Greek, Roman, Norse, Celtic, Egyptian, Mesopotamian, Mesoamerican, Chinese, Hindu, and dozens of other traditions.
• 28 mythology clusters organized by region (Europe, the Americas, Africa & Middle East, Asia, Oceania).
• Comparative essays that draw threads across cultures: trickster gods, dying-and-rising deities, world trees, flood myths.
• Family trees + timelines for the major pantheons (more in production).
• An interactive atlas mapping the world's mythological traditions on a 3D globe.
• The Mythologis book series, paperback + PDF editions covering each tradition in narrative form.

Editorial standards

Every article cites its sources. We name translators (Wender, Powell, Faulkner) so you can find the same passage in print. When scholars disagree, we say so. When a story has multiple versions, we describe them, not blur them.

Who runs it

Mythologis is published by Yavok LLC, a Wyoming-registered company. The editorial direction is Peii Henry, who has spent the last decade reading too many sacred texts.
