Creation Stories

from The Mythographist · host Jaer Christie

All things must begin somewhere, but where did the world come from? All people have been born, but where did the first people come from? These are the questions we have asked since the dawn of humanity, and answered with stories. These are the tales of the first things, and how they came to be. In this episode, we look at two of China's myths of creation: Pangu and the Creation of the Universe, and Fuxi & Nüwa Create People. Join me, Jaer Christie, as I explore the hidden legends that shape the world on the Mythographist. Season one: The Myths of Mainland China.
