This book aimed to present an overview of the concept of Comparative Mythology by comparing three different archaic myths from three different parts of the world. Comparative Mythology explores the humans' past in order to help us understand the world we live in today and in this domain of study an 'ancestor myth' is seen as a symbolic narrative on how the world began and how the first ancestors by the divine order came to inhabit a certain geographical area. In this book, the discussed myths illustrate how human has evolved from plant-life nature to human nature and in this way they illustrate the priority of vegetation life and agriculture culture in these societies.
