Myths are the expression of a form of knowledge essential to life.
Including mainly previously unpublished work by A.M. Hocart the
book examines such issues as: Why a queen should not have been
married before; why a guest is sacred; why people are believed to
have been turned into stone; how money originated. These issues are
considered as part of a socio-religious complex embraced in many
parts of the world, both East and West. (There are chapters on the
UK, India, Sri Lanka, Africa, Fiji, Egypt, and Ancient Greece).
