The great mythological gods of the world. Zeus, Thor, Horus, Finn McCool... Sorry what was that last one? Ancient mythologies were used by the people of their times to explain the goings on in the world around them, and in the modern world are used as sources of inspiration. Whether it's Marvels 'Thor', or Rick Riordan's 'Percy Jackson' series, most people today are at least in some way acquainted with the major mythological pantheons and legends. But in all the mythologies used today in popular culture, one seems to be missing. Irish Mythology. So, for the sake of my own interest, and for the sake of teaching some of you the interesting, slightly convoluted, and often extremely bizarre world of Irish mythology, I've don't my best to connect the dots, and put together a (mostly) cohesive guide to the Irish Mythos and Folklore.

Celtic mythology is the mythology of Celtic polytheism, the religion of the Iron Age Celts. Like other Iron Age Europeans, the early Celts maintained a polytheistic mythology and religious structure. Among Celts in close contact with Ancient Rome, such as the Gauls and Celtiberians, their mythology did not survive the Roman Empire, their subsequent conversion to Christianity, and the loss of their Celtic languages. It is mostly through contemporary Roman and Christian sources that their mythology has been preserved. The Celtic peoples who maintained either their political or linguistic identities (such as the Gaels in Ireland and Scotland, and the Celtic Britons of southern Great Britain and Brittany) left vestigial remnants of their ancestral mythologies, put into written form during the Middle Ages. - 2019 -Completed-

Greek mythology is the body of myths and teachings that belong to the ancient Greeks, concerning their gods and heroes, the nature of the world, and the origins and significance of their own cult and ritual practices. It was a part of the religion in ancient Greece. Modern scholars refer to and study the myths in an attempt to shed light on the religious and political institutions of Ancient Greece and its civilization, and to gain understanding of the nature of myth-making itself. Greek mythology is explicitly embodied in a large collection of narratives, and implicitly in Greek representational arts, such as vase-paintings and votive gifts. Greek myth attempts to explain the origins of the world, and details the lives and adventures of a wide variety of gods, goddesses, heroes, heroines and mythological creatures. - This Book of Greek Mythology contains : The beginning of the world : how the world created by the greek myth The Olympian gods : will tell you about the 12 gods of Olympus + 2 (Hades and Hestia) The Greek Heroes : many famous Greek heroes are here including the mighty Hercules, Achilles and Jason.
