GREEK MYTHOLOGY: Cadmus the Hero: First King of Thebes - Told by Athena
4,281
Published 2024-06-09
This is the Tale of prince Cadmus of Tyre, and his heroic exploits, facing monsters and hardship. Until he eventually founded his own city, with a little help from the goddess Athena, she narrates this tale.
Living Mythology is an attempt to entertain, relax and educate all in the one place. We are trying to forge narratives so that people can experience the religions and mythologies of the world as they were meant to be. Not as dry academic monoliths, but as living breathing tales and parables as experienced by the peoples who worshipped these beings, in an attempt to make sense of their own lives and the world around them.
This channel is in its infancy, so we hope to improve and develop it as we gain more experience.
All of the tales are taken from very conflicting traditions across many centuries, so there will be many a moment when decisions need to be made to create a more cohesive narrative. If we present something that seems to be in contrast to details, rest assured we have researched many forms of the traditions and come to the conclusions we have done to form the videos.
There will NEVER be total agreement on any of these narratives due to the history and differing ways they developed over the centuries.
These videos are for entertainment and an easy gateway to the subject. If you wish more academic details then please direct your attention to the wide source material and others who perform those types of academic video essays.

Hmm, the thumbnail just made me muse for myself: How (exactly) might an ancient Greek have envisioned/ imagined a dragon looks like? If (s)he would take a piece of paper and pens and draws one as detailed as possible?
-
This is interesting and I’m so happy that we got to see Athena. Great job and keep up the good work.

I remember reading this story as a little boy, from a book my grandfather gave me. The dragon's teeth always fascinated me. You did a beautiful job bringing this story to life in such unique and original way! Great work, can't wait for the next tale.
-
The models you've chosem for visuals are quite nice looking. Also.. i find it amusing athena's.... 'HOOPE NOPE NOT TALKING ABOUT THIS' on WHY Europa was taken. Can't blame her. I wouldn't want to narrate my father's infidelity either.
