About

This site is my exploration of the mythology and folklore of the Mediterranean and the Middle East and North Africa region. It's a product of my research for a fantasy novel, and a way for me to learn about culture through storytelling and belief.

Random digressions into food, shopping or travel may occur without warning.  Posts and links don't equal endorsements, but may reflect the author's whims or perhaps lapses in judgement.

Comments by those far more informed than I am about this subject are most welcome, posts that disparage entire ethnic groups or religions are not.
