Notes[]
- ↑ Herodotus (ca. 484–425 BCE), the father of history, had argued that myths were distorted accounts of real historical events. Euhemerus (4th century - 3rd century BCE) took that idea and kicked it up to the next level suggesting that all myths had some basis in historical fact
- ↑ This refers to a deluge of barbarian invaders not a flood.
- ↑ "G.I. Joe and the Golden Fleece" is a variant of this idea
