The story of Moses' parting of the Red Sea is theorized by some to be related to an old Egyptian fairytale, in which the magician Djadjaemankh performs a similar feat, parting the water of the Nile, to retrieve a jewel that fell to the bottom.#Mythology #Folklore #MythologyMonday

A Norwegian folktale tells of a king who is cursed by a witch he refuses to marry. The curse makes him turn into a white bear during the day, but at night he is still a man. A princess falls in love with him, and together they manage to break the curse. #FairyTaleTuesday
@MythsandTales Excellent comment, I agree Andvari's ring, often called Andvaranaut and made famous in the tale of Sigurd the Dragon Slayer, likely could have been an inspiration for Tolkien's Lord of the Rings.
An interesting read , check out their podcast!

@DannyBuckUEA @MythsandTales @UniofHerts My thoughts exactly! It was a very interesting discussion, with no right answers
@CeriHoulbrook @MythsandTales @UniofHerts The Disney corporation. But more seriously, that is a fascinating question. I feel like 'ownership' runs the risk of pinning down folklore, turning them into something dead and static. Only by their continued shifting and amorphousness can they keep alive.
Really enjoying @MythsandTales talk as part of the Folklore Studies Seminar Series @UniofHerts - some very interesting questions are being asked
My idea of Little Red Ridinghood is probably a bit different from everyone else. She's more of an @AngelaCarterFan kind of girl. If I'm honest I probably want to be this person. #FairyTaleTuesday #drawing #illustration
We are still here, working away in the background... tracking many dog and horse bones down at the moment from various archaeological sites. Getting paperwork together. Updates to website will come during March onwards and more blogs! We are all being good pups and foals :)
#FairyTaleTuesday - Draupnir was Odin’s magical ring. This extraordinary object was crafted by the dwarfs Eitri and Brokkr and possessed an intriguing magical property - it had the ability to replicate itself. buff.ly/44bJIZI
@MythsandTales I can confirm that this book has been an invaluable professional resource. Keep writing 'em, Ms. Kerven! A storytellers' delight.
@MythsandTales I can see why. They are so smart and really have the measure of us humans. In the spring the corvids work together to alert everyone when I put food out. They are just brilliantly co-ordinated.
