THE IMPACT OF COMMON MYTHOLOGICAL ELEMENTS ON THE FORMATION OF MULTICULTURAL STRUCTURE AND THE ARTISTIC REFLECTIONS OF THIS SITUATION

Abstract

The humankind generally had similar experiences and belief systems, although they lived in the regions had very different geographical and climatic structures. On one hand, this situation caused the formation of a multicultural structure and on the other hand, it gives the information about the fact that the societies which did not know each other followed the common/same values. One of the sources maintaining this rich structure which was revealed in the cultural sense is the mythologies which were approached with similar samples by many communities. While the mythologies are giving the enlightening information about experiences of communities, on the other hand, they are unearthing the common values of groups of people living in different regions and they are searching for the sources of these values. The mythologies that are sometimes accepted as the common myths which do not have relevance to the reality all astonished the people frequently with the material remains revealed. The fact that the events which raised the doubt if they were lived or not and taken place only in mythologies  showed themselves as the events which were really lived as a result of the archaeological developments caused the realization of many new formations and evaluations in human history. Naturally, being repeated of the mythological events have the similar features in many different geographies with the differences only about the names or showing the presence similarly  poses an informative status about the interaction between communities. Here, one of the areas that contribute the ensuring the continuity and demonstrating the similarity of mythological elements is art. Thus, it is known that the mythological events are approached intensely in different branches of art and the art illuminates the past as the historical documents. The purpose of this study is making the associations among the common mythological events which have an important place in the lives of societies and revealing the contribution of the artworks with the samples for the recognition and continuity of these events. İt is thought that revealing the mythological similar events with the samples belong to the different branches of the art and making the proof of these interactions with solid foundations will make the contribution to the international peace as well as strengthening and experiencing the cultural interaction in today's society.
