wow not even celtic
so basically greek
appaK
dialga
it's almost as if the greeks knew how to write something that people can still read today
>lecturing Max on Greek/Roman history
What are you Dialga, new?
you want to tell me that the unicorn got carried on by the history of indus
100% people didnt hear it from there
No but it was the origin
you can't know that
it doesnt say it was though
* The unicorn was depicted in ancient seals of the Indus Valley Civilization and was mentioned by the ancient Greeks*
there might have been mention of them before, but people didn't keep records of it and just talked about it
and by that, it was popularized by greek mythos
The unicorn appeared in early Mesopotamian artworksDamn, the unicorn is old
dang
So what was the straw that broke the camels back for you Max
oh look
the phoenix
is greek
Now that you are seeing Norse mythos everywhere
i was just thinking about it while showering
max why do you doubt that i've seen more norse stuff around
Side question, how many showers a day do you take?
beause greek/roman shit is absolutley everywhere
bennu
once spooky
one every day
egyptian firebird
At random times?
usually the afternoon
i dont like morning showers
Also Dialga, I'm not doubting you've seen more Norse shit, I'm just trying to think of how you're lived you life for that would be the case
I don't know, it's probably just coincidence that a lot of stuff i watch and play end up having some kind of norse inspiration in it somewhere
>play
i just have so much doubt in that
Like?
How many games are out there with exclusively Norse shit
I can think of... 5 or 6? recent, examples
skyrim
kappa
only game dialga plays
Max please
its not just games though
In books, movies, the names of things and etc.
Or like things people name there pets, you see more people name their dogs after a god like "My dogs name is Ares xD" instead of "my dogs name is Odin!"
its just all of that
I almost think Marvel movies have made it harder for super mainstream Norse shit to do well
Because mainstream Norse shit will always revolve around Thor, Loki, and Odin
I can see that
I feel like, since its so ingrained in our culture, we've become desensitized to greek/roman mythos
I mean, Roman history is Western history
I feel like so much of what we do culturally is traced back to that
im pretty sure all of these are greek/roman: Harpy, Minotaur, Pegasus,, Satyrs, Scylla, Sirens, Hydras, Amazons (the females xD, should be grouped in with subhumans too though kappa)
and then things like the trojan horse
all of them are greek
everything roman "culture" was greek culture
romans had some original ideas right...>?
even the roman emperors said so, greeks were all about matters of state and culture, romans would do the military stuff
the romans added on to the stuff that they integrated
also, the apollo, you know the space thing
god of knowledge or something
so much stuff
right
no i mean
how usa named our space crafts or some of them
after apollo
he was god of the arts i think
Everything in Space is Greek/Roman named
^ that too
This is why i have serious doubts, i mean it might be possible
but like
wasn't apollo the messenger of the gods
Depends if you're talking Greek or Roman Dialga
