As a rule, myths lack a single, unambiguous message. As products of collective creation, mythology is characterized by numerous ambiguities and contradictions. These narratives form a kind of bond that links the symbolic universe with the explanations that human beings seek to give in the face of the questions that move them.
The mythic narrative, fluid and variable by nature, is in itself an object of interest for philosophy, which will seek to speculate on the motivations behind its creation, its meaning, and even its continued relevance.
