Have you ever wondered where the ancient pagan gods of Europe, Odin, Zeus, Jupiter, and Thor truly came from?
Wandering Gods uncovers the forgotten origins of Norse mythology, Celtic mythology, and European pagan traditions, tracing them back over 6,000 years to the Indo-European peoples of the Pontic-Caspian steppe. This is more than a retelling of myths. It is a journey into the deep roots of belief, revealing how these stories shaped cultures, identities, and the very foundations of Europe.
Blending archaeology, genetics, linguistics, and mythology, the book reveals a shared ancestral tradition that spread across continents, connecting gods, rituals, and languages from Ireland to India.
Along the way, you'll encounter Cheddar Man and Ötzi the Iceman, explore the cosmic symbolism of Yggdrasil, uncover the world of Celtic druids, and trace the linguistic threads that bind Indo-European myths together. You will also discover how ancient Europeans understood fate, rebirth, and the cycles of existence, ideas that still echo through modern culture.
Written in vivid, accessible prose, Wandering Gods brings together Norse mythology, Celtic traditions, Greek mythology, Roman religion and gods, and early European spirituality into a single, coherent story of origin.
This is not just the history of the gods. It is the story of where they came from, and why they still matter.
