mythology, archetype, cosmogony, cultural hero, mother goddess, civilization

The author examines the role of male and female characters in the myths about the origin of civilization. The opposition “male-female” is not a pair of antagonistic values. It reflects the complex gradation of meaning, repressed into unconsciousness.
