The very first thing I noticed was Lilth’s appearance. In the preceptorial‚ we touched on this briefly and it was suggested that she represented

one should listen to instructions and to not kill anyone out of jealousy because there are serious consequences. Which do you believe is more meaningful reading‚ mythology or folklore? Why do you think this is so? I believe that both mythology and folklore are meaningful because they are very similar.

They are stories that‚ through oral presentation and written documentation‚ have been passed down through centuries and are even still being created today. These stories carry themes and characters that are used to relate those themes. One prominent type of character in most myths is that of the "trickster".

Navajo tale "Changing Woman and the Hero Twins after the Emergence of the People" is a perfect example of archetype (model) in ancient‚ and not so ancient‚ mythology.
