Summary

Professor Michael York rejoins the Garden. We are discussing the Hittites and how their lands became known as the Land of a Thousand Gods. From the Indo European roots to the creation myths, we cover their pantheon(s) and the influences upon them and that they influenced upon. Of course, we get the many kids of cides and human taboos. We also get into cataclysms and AI. It'll all make sense when you listen.
