Myths and beliefs

  • According to the Venerable Bede, the world was created on 18 March 3952 BC.
  • The 40 Century BC is considered by some Christians who adhere to Young Earth Creationism to be the beginning of primeval human civilization.
  • According to Korean legends, the god who controlled the weather came down to the ground to spread harmony, peace and prosperity among the people. A tiger and a she-bear came to see him, asking the god to turn them into humans. The god gave the animals garlic and mugwort to take to a dark cave. The two must survive on the two plants and never see light for 100 days to become humans. The two tried, and for a while, they succeeded. However, the tiger could not bear the plants and dashed out for the sun and meat. Even though seeing Tiger leave so freely, the She-bear endured. Finally a hundred days passed, and the She bear turned into a beautiful woman. The god named her eung-nyeo, [熊女, bear-woman] and they married. Together they had a son, who was named Dan-goon[壇君]. Dan-goon became the first emperor of Korea, and he built the first nation of that particular peninsula.
