Also, they use the hero archetype to explain the reason and the history of some constructions like temples and the division of some countries. Furthermore, in those countries, people admire heroes because of their bravery and loyalty. For example, in the Greek myth of King Odysseus, who is the king of Ithaca, he fought for his country and participated in the Trojan War. On the other hand, the King Arthur is another hero who fights for his country against people from other countries and monsters.

The creature of nightmare is often a beast that comes from the darkest. For example, in the legend of the Boggy Greek, who is a monster or another version of Bigfoot, this is a character that used to live in Arkansas, southeast of Texarkana, and he was famous for killing chickens and dogs. Correspondingly, the legend of Devil's Alley is about the apparition of a horrible beast in an alley located in Mexico. The legend explains that while a young man tried to walk in the alley, he saw a figure, and the earth was sinking under his feet. Given these points, it is notable that the archetypal character of the creature of the nightmare is used in those myths to share stories by people from different countries.

This myth has been a part of Hispanic culture in the Southwest since the days of the conquistadores. The weeping woman tells us about a woman who suffers even in death because she killed her children. The Katas Raj Temple tells us about the pond which has clear green water, is due to the creation of Lord Shiva’s tears. When his wife Satti passed away, Lord Shiva cried so much that his tears created two holy ponds- one in Katas Raj Temple and one in Ajmer, India.

After Enkidu become through sexual initiation with a prostitute for seven days and seven nights, he traveled to Uruk, where he challenged Gilgamesh to fight. Gilgamesh won and they become friends. Together, they made a six day journey to the legendary Cedar Forest, where they planned to slay the Guardian, Humbaba the terrible, and cut down the sacred Cedar. After that, they killed the Bull of Heaven, which the goddess Ishtar sent to punish Gilgamesh for spurning her advances. As a punishment for these actions, the gods sentence Enkidu to death. Enkidu's death causes Gilgamesh to undertake a long and perilous journey to discover the secret of eternal life. He eventually learns that "Life, which you look for, you will never find. For when the gods created man, they let death be his share, and life withheld in their own hands". However, because of his great building projects, his account of Siduri's advice, and what the immortal man Utnapishtim told him about The Great Flood, Gilgamesh's fame survived his death.

  • Battle between Good and Bad, The Journey, The Hero, Light vs Darkness, Heaven vs Hell are the different types of archetypes which is clearly described through this video. 
  • A Quote from the video is,"Manifest destiny is the principle mythic embodiment of what can be called American exceptionalism."
  • The above mentioned quote states manifest destiny and manifest means clear and the original concept that American is telling itself a story about how clearly is the nation that is destined to bring all things to fulfillment.
