Re: Mesopotamian Origins
Gnostradamus, I know I've seen the overlap of the mythologies on a website somewhere but I can't remember....
You should skim the first bit of Jacob Bryant's A New System; or, an Analysis of Antient Mythology. Its free at gutenberg.org Jacob Bryant spent a lot of time and effort studying etymological clues in the names of mythological gods of world mythologies, so he shows the similarities between, say, the Egyptian, Babylonian, and Grecian. His goal was to somehow connect them all to Genesis and his works never really caught on, but I'm sure that at least he'd cover the bit of information you are looking for. |
