The San people and Norse people both have very similar creation myths. How can two cultures separated at both ends of the world have similar myths?

The people of the Early Race (Sans) throw the sun up into the air so the light shone through its arm pit illuminating the world. Just like Odin, Vili, and Vé killed the frost giant turning it into the Universe and everything we see. And a little girl from the Sans creation myth created the stars by throwing ash up into the sky. How can the culture of people separated at two ends of the world have very similar creation stories?


Even the Gods Kaggen and Loki are both described as Tricksters

and how can pets, just be true and perfect companions? It's us who put nonsense in our minds and chase the world away. Pick your best metaphor for it, it will resonate further, but the sea is the sea, a laugh is a laugh, a smile is still a smile.

@SW-User I know but these are two completely different people who have been separated by 100 hundreds of thousands of years without any written language between them yet they have a very similar story of how the Universe was created? That has to mean something.

@Lostpoet Yes, like I don't ask people indigenous people here to just get along with their captors because cats see beyond our nonsense?
