Mythology

The gods, heroes, and legends ancient cultures told to explain their world.

Egyptian Mythology

A belief system so focused on the afterlife that an entire elaborate industry, mummification, existed purely to prepare for it.

Mesoamerican Mythology

In the Maya Popol Vuh, the gods flopped at making humans from mud and wood before nailing it with corn.

Norse Mythology

A mythology where even the gods know exactly how and when the world ends — and are powerless to stop it.

Celtic Mythology

Celtic myths were told aloud for centuries before medieval Christian scribes wrote them down, so what survives carries their fingerprints.

Greek Mythology

A pantheon of gods who were vain, jealous, and constantly meddling in human affairs — basically reality TV with lightning bolts.

Hindu Mythology

One of Hindu mythology's central epics is so long that it's often described as roughly ten times the combined length of the Iliad and the Odyssey.
