solar myth

The separatist theories of the Homeric poems are not more secure than the Solar Myth, "like a wave shall they pass and be passed."

The magazine contained a series of notes on the nursery rhymes, where the "Song of Sixpence" was proved to be a solar myth.

He is a myth, and what is more he is a solar myth—an avatar, or at least a representative of Odin in his solar capacity.

There is considerable affinity, in this phase of the superstition, to the classic solar myth which records the doom of Meleager.

The older interpretation, however, takes the custom back to the Druidic days, and makes it a form of the solar myth.
