Across the world, myth expresses how humans relate to reality, memory, and the unseen. This book traces the recurring structures that shape those expressions: the boundaries that define worlds, the guardians who enforce them, the layered realms that organise experience, and the journeys that carry meaning across thresholds. By comparing traditions from Mesopotamia, Greece, Egypt, Mesoamerica, Asia, and beyond, it reveals the underlying architecture that cultures use to make sense of existence. The underworld is only one example of this deeper pattern. The result is a study of myth as a human language-structured, coherent, and shared across time.

Dave Atkinson is an Oxford graduate whose professional life has ranged from management science and consultancy to senior business roles and company ownership. In recent years he has turned to conceptual work, applying the same analytical discipline to a set of fields that, at first glance, seem unrelated - but reveal striking underlying patterns when examined with care. This book opens a planned sequence. It is written for the interested general reader: someone who enjoys seeing beneath the surface of things and is willing to give a little time to understanding how the world fits together.
