The myths are and the earliest form of experiencing the world and of wisdom, and a rich world of images and symbols. And although, at first glance, the myths are long gone, and today they have considerable impact on human ideas about the world, thinking, art.
Myths on Earth no less than the peoples, and actually more, because, first, we heard the mythology of lost civilizations, such as Hittite or Phoenician, and secondly, the myths recorded in many versions, sometimes so different that scientists have to prove their common roots.
In this book the reader will find exciting stories about the most whole mythological systems of different Nations.
