Ancient Books

Myths, Stories, and Legends

From the beginning man has had stories.  Stories were told around the campfire, told in secret, told in rituals.  Man created stories to explain the world.  The most important stories were about the things which man did not, and even, could not understand.  The things in the world that were more powerful, the things that had an impact on man in his world, which he could not understand, required an explanation.  This is the reality where man still resides.  The stories that man created to solve the unknowable establish a framework for reality.   While researching the evolution of man and his stories we encounter characters in the form of Gods, Goddess, Mythical Creatures and we carry with us not just the story of their existence but also images of how they existed.  The Ancient Artist has created books to bring these stories to you and to keep the legends alive.  These stories were the genesis for many of the digital images you see on this sight, and many of the images here are featured in these books
