In which Mike Rugnetta begins our unit on pantheons, which are families of gods. We further define pantheons and talk about why they're important. Then, we discuss pantheons from the myths of the ancient Mediterranean, starting with ancient Sumer in Mesopotamia. The Egyptian pantheon brings us the story of Osiris and his envious brother Seth. We learn what these two pantheons suggest about the cultures where they originated. • Sources: • David Leeming, The World of Myth: An Anthology • Thury Devinney, Introduction to Mythology. • Thanks to the following Patrons for their generous monthly contributions that help keep Crash Course free for everyone forever: • Mark, Les Aker, Bob Kunz, William McGraw, Jeffrey Thompson, Ruth Perez, Jason A Saslow, Eric Prestemon, Malcolm Callis, Steve Marshall, Advait Shinde, Rachel Bright, Ian Dundore, Tim Curwick, Ken Penttinen, Dominic Dos Santos, Caleb Weeks, Kathrin Janßen, Nathan Taylor, Yana Leonor, Andrei Krishkevich, Brian Thomas Gossett, Chris Peters, Kathy Tim Philip, Mayumi Maeda, Eric Kitchen, SR Foxley, Justin Zingsheim, Andrea Bareis, Moritz Schmidt, Bader AlGhamdi, Jessica Wode, Daniel Baulig, Jirat • -- • Want to find Crash Course elsewhere on the internet? • Facebook - / youtubecrashcourse • Twitter - / thecrashcourse • Tumblr - / thecrashcourse • Support Crash Course on Patreon: / crashcourse • CC Kids: / crashcoursekids
