【Series Introduction】
In the endless hourglass of time, every civilization has left behind a gleaming seed of mythology. These seeds have drifted through the dawn light of the Euphrates, skimmed the snow line of the Ural Mountains, sunk into the undercurrents of the Volga River, and sprouted anew in the tidal sounds of the Pacific Ocean. This thirty-volume "Divine Atlas" series is a global expedition following the footprints of legend: from the sacred fire rising from the Persian deserts to the long howls of the blue wolves on the Mongolian grasslands; from the vengeful spirits in the dark depths of Japanese wells to the beating shaman drums deep within Korean palaces—all stories reiterate one thing: how humanity uses imagination to explain the world and rituals to approach the unknown.

Part 1: 《Turkish Mythology》《Arabic Mythology》《Germanic Mythology》《Japanese Mythology》《Kazakh Mythology》《Persian Mythology》《Korean Mythology》《Greek Mythology》《Slavic Mythology》《Egyptian Mythology》《Mongolian Mythology》《Chinese Mythology》《Indian Mythology》《Romanian Mythology》《Scandinavian Mythology》

Description

In the depths of time’s flowing sands, civilizations were born and obliterated in millennial storms, yet there once existed a remarkable realm—its phantom can be glimpsed in the revelries of the Greek hero Heracles and the god Dionysus, within the tales of the “Arabian Nights,” and also in modern philosophical thought. Persia, this ancient and powerful land, has gifted the world legends of mysterious gods and legendary heroes, of the eternal battle between light and darkness, of the sacred fire of Zoroastrianism and the sages who discerned the cosmos’s secrets. What other legacies has Persian civilization bestowed upon world culture? The answer lies within the book “Persian Mythology”!

You will read about:
• What was Mithraism, a faith even Roman emperors followed, which once rivaled early Christianity?
• Why did the Biblical Magi (Three Wise Men) always wear peculiar red hats in medieval miniatures?
• What hidden connections exist between Iranian mythology and Slavic mythology?
• According to Persian myth, what did Gayomart (Spoiler: He looked nothing like a human!), the first man in the world, actually look like?
• What esteemed status did Zoroastrianism assign to dogs?
• Which other animals were also considered “dogs”?
• As recently as the 1970s, eerie “Towers of Silence” were still being built in Iran. What was their purpose? Can still-functioning ones be found in other countries?
And more.

This book, featuring color and black-and-white illustrations, will take you on a thrilling journey across the dunes of history to unveil these answers one by one. The “World Mythology - Humanity’s Most Magnificent Imagination” series presents the captivating stories of various countries and ethnicities, an ideal way to delve into exotic cultures and broaden your horizons. Witness the epic battles of gods, mysterious rituals, and legendary heroes!
