Well Greek mythology is very well documented due to the fact they played a major role in historical influence. Same for Roman, Egyptian, and Middle Eastern. Mythology from the Vikings, Native America, and Southern African is poorly understood due to the label they were given at that time “Heathens/savages”. They rarely documented their beliefs and were commonly forced to convert. Not to say they didn’t play significant roles in history, but due to their beliefs they were often hated by larger civilizations. That’s why mythologies outside of Roman, Egyptian, and Greek isn’t discussed as much. Although, I am interested in learning what smaller civilizations believed in. Many aspects of which occasionally correlates with the beliefs in larger civilizations.

But your peoples of the Yoruba (which make up the ancestry of so many peoples of the African-ChattelEnslaved-Diaspora, in the Americas. Like the Akan) are not a “tribe”. Your people are city-state & empire builders. Calling the Yoruba, Akan or Nubians, a “tribe”, would be like calling the Chinese, Egyptians, or French a tribe.

9:18 The Korean Jeju goddess(more like just a spirit) is actually pronounced: Ga-mun-jang-agi (The Gamunjang part means "clay pot" and the last Agi part means baby). As the spirit of fortune she blessed her own house with riches and when her unknowing parents asked their children "Why do you think we are so blessed?", her two humble sisters(named silver pot and bronze pot) answered "It's because we have great parents" but "Claypot" answered "Its cuz of me!" Infuriated by her impudence, the parents ran her out of the house but then sent her sisters to bring her back. However, "Claypot" was so angry that she turned her sisters into rare mushrooms and caused her parents to slip and become blinded and eventually poor. She later repents her actions after meeting a kind man that gave the best parts of any food to his parents and older brothers only taking the barely edible crumbs for himself. She rewards the kind man with gold and marries him but learns that she cannot undo her own angery actions. She holds a feast for all the towns people providing food and drinks to the poor where she meets a old couple dressed in rags. She cries when realizing that these are her parents and a miracle happens undoing the harm she had done to her family. source: namu.wiki/w/%EA%B0%90%EC%9D%80%EC%9E%A5%EC%95%84%EA%B8%B0

Never heard about the Fates being personally involved with Hades and Persephone like that. There really is alot of different variotions of that story. And funnily enough, the oldest versions of it are actually the happiest, with Persephone actually loving Hades and being queen of the underworld, while later ones have Persephone being unhappy about it all. It's even weirder when we consider her pre-greek origin that already establish her as an underworld goddess, while Hades seemingly appears out of nowhere as greek mythology as we know it came to be, meaning Persephone has a much longer history as an underwold deity than Hades does.

And they are as old as you'll get

@@lior1299 The actual kidnapping and her happiness is kind of unrelated. If we look at it with historical context, women had practically no rights and the poses to symbolise kidnapping and marriage on Greek art were the same. So we can deduce that this wasn't too unusual, especially for the gods. Plus Homer's poem outlined Zeus as the antagonist so I don't think the intention was to frame the relationship as necessarily bad, though different retellings and sources differ. I think OSP made a decent video about this, I definitely recommend it, even if it's a little liberal on interpretation.
@lior12993 жыл бұрын
@@generalgrievous6689 I don't know.. I'm not convinced. That isn't anything to say she was happy as much as she was unhappy. Saying it was the norm, doesn't say she was happy. Zeus wasn't considered an antagonist, he just did what fathers did at the time and married his daughter off. But I, the ancient Greeks, and even you probably should admit that abduction is a no no, right? (and its all symbolic) Also, tricking your love interest into staying around by eating a pomegranate wouldn't be necessary if this was okay by her. You can say that it may have started on the wrong foot, but it got better... But still, what ancient, 'older' sources speak to this? You can even point out that she has sway over Hades in stories such as Herakles' 12th task, or Orpheus' plea for his wife, but these are later stories (Diodorus Siculus and the like, 1st Century BC) and in that case I can bring her infatuation with Adonis, which would be considered infidelity (for women).

@@lior1299 Idk. If we just take a look at the Canon as a whole, as you said, it would seem that even if the start wasn't great, the end result wasn't that bad. She has sway with him (and shares power which would have been uncommon for women) in some stories and at the very least they seem functional (compared to the other gods). The story was used to explain the seasonal cycle, so it would make sense these characters would play a role in this. Spring is sealed away and winter would cause death back then so it makes sense the god of the underworld was involved. It's also uncommon to hear myths/stories about the underworld, so it makes sense that we hear very little about their relationship. I guess it's up to personal interpretation becuase the original script was torn and the physical art representing it was limited. Earlier sources were from cults and they were very secretive, so it's impossible to trace these myths back any further then we already have.

I would love to see a deep dive of weaving in mythology. The fates are just one example. Because cloth, weaving, and braiding are fundamental to most human cultures. It's where a lot of us began.

Loved this, will definitely watch more. I couldn't help but notice that it was mentioned this will be co-hosted with Dr. Z, however. Does this mean Monstrum is over?

Nope! I’ll still be bringing the spooky with Monstrum. The channel is just growing-getting bigger and better!-*Dr.Z*

im interested in the proto-indo european archetype that even presents variants in Africa: the dichotomy between dragon-like creatures and thunder/storm deities. thor vs jormundgandr, zues vs typhon, etc. the african variant presents the thunder god in the epic of mwindo as blood brother to a dragon instead of foe. what does this relationship represent? what could the variations tell us about a culture's perceptions of nature/monsters?

@Kleine Vuurvlinder im not entirely sure to what you are referring, but i think Shiva's third eye and Zeus "birthing" Dionysus after incinerating his mortal mother might be what comes to mind. also thank you!

Stoked for this new series and great characters to start it off with!! Edit: Definitely want to hear more about the cats and their place in mythology. It would be awesome to see the show delve into mythologies and pantheons that aren't commonly known

I would love to hear about the indo-European obsessions with bulls. Such an interesting link between all those different cultures. I wonder if there is a myth that they all share?

Chaos is much more powerful than the Fates. The Fates may have control over people's destinies, but Chaos simultaneously gave birth to existence, and is existence

Great first-up video! Looking forward to more! Glad you touched on the Norns, as a fan of the Norse. Are you planning to look at Ragnarok?

Can we take a moment to appreciate Dr. Emily adoringly referred as "Dr. Z"? I am in full support of future episodes referring these ladies as Dr. Z and Dr. M. And yes, there is an *urgent need* to explain why cats are our eternal lords and masters.

I find the fates so amazing. Even if we Greeks have stopped practicing most of our polytheistic heritage many of us have a strong belief in fate and have many sayings on it. We still use the word Moira (μοίρα) to express our fate and the word moirazo(μοιράζω) witch means to share. Because even if thousands of years and religions have passed our history is still well and alive in our language and of course... Our fate 🌻

hadestwon was the first time I'd ever heard of the fates! it was really cool how the fates pushed the narrative along at key points and became more obviously important at every step through the staging of the musical.

When i was studying romeo and julliet I remember hearing about them from my teacher, this provides so much more insight onto why they were mentioned. At the time my teacher just said it was a unique point to talk about and that if you were able to come up with a unique analysis about it in relation to the questions that end up coming up on the exam, then great and that if you don't think you can make use of it you can just forget about it as it will not help you.
