Week 3: Choose your Myth
Week 4: Archetypal Roles & Non-Material Culture
Week 5: Interpreting Myth
See the Project 1: Myths & Archetypes- Full Description for instructions about what to submit each week. Make sure to read through all the stages before choosing your myth to make sure you can address everything the assignment requires.
Instructions

Examples would include things like:
The myth about the founding of the city of Thebes
The myth that establishes the caste system in India
The myth about the formation of Mount TaranakiasNote: none of these should be chosen for this assignment
In a short essay of 200-250 words, please do the following:
Very briefly summarize your chosen myth and identify two of its main characters. Be sure to specify which version of the myth you will use if there are multiple versions.
