This book is an ambitious work on mythology. Focusing on the oldest available texts, buttressed by data from archeology, comparative linguistics, and human population genetics, this book reconstructs a single original African source for our collective myths, dating back some 100,000 years. Identifying features shared by this “Out of Africa” mythology and its northern Eurasian offshoots, this book suggests that these common myths—recounted by the communities of the “African Eve”—are the earliest evidence of ancient spirituality. Moreover these common features, the book shows, survive today in all major religions.
