Publisher's Synopsis

Non-Aryan Myths Of The Origin Of The World And Of Man is a book written by Andrew Lang, a Scottish poet, novelist, and literary critic. The book is a collection of myths and legends from various cultures around the world that describe the creation of the universe and the origin of human beings. These myths are not from the Aryan culture, which is the dominant culture in Europe and India, but rather from other cultures such as the Native American, African, and Polynesian cultures. The book explores the similarities and differences between these myths and how they reflect the beliefs and values of the cultures they come from. The book is a fascinating look at the diversity of human culture and the ways in which people have tried to understand the mysteries of the world and their place in it.THIS 54 PAGE ARTICLE WAS EXTRACTED FROM THE BOOK: Myth, Ritual and Religion V1, by Andrew Lang.
