Honestly it started with a weird realization while reading about the Proto-Indo-European sky father myth — that Zeus, Jupiter, Dyaus Pita, and Tyr all descend from the same deity, and that the places where those gods were worshipped still exist. You can stand at Olympia. You can stand at Gamla Uppsala. You're standing at two endpoints of a 5,000-year-old story.
That gap bothered me: mythology is almost always taught as abstract narrative, disconnected from geography. But these myths happened somewhere. The Hopi know exactly which travertine dome in the Grand Canyon their ancestors emerged from. The Maya carved the World Tree on a sarcophagus lid in Palenque. Cahokia was built to replicate the primordial mound. The stories are inseparable from the land.
I wanted a place where you could see that — not just read the myth, but locate it. Pull up a map and
realize that the dragon-slayer myth shows up in India, Scandinavia, and Greece not because cultures copied each other, but because something deep in human storytelling keeps returning to that shape.
I'm a language arts teacher. That instinct to connect things, to show the pattern underneath — that's what built this. Mythic Grounds is basically the lesson I always wanted to teach and share with others.
