In reply to: JC 's message, "more pine cone mythology in other parts of the world.." on 08:51:53 02/01/10 Mon

what we are dealing with is the fact that in attempting to explain the world around them different men often form the same explanations independantly

consider the creatures most commonly depicted in both Norse

and North West Coast Amerind Art

the Raven, the Wolf, and the Bear

there was no intercultural memo

Ravens, Wolves and bears have allways lived on the edges of human habitation

just as they display specific attributes


the stronger example of independant assignation of divinity

is the sun

again..no single culture had to let another one in on any secret here
