Change section heading?

[edit]

The section called "Arabian mythology" should be renamed to "Semitic mythology" b/c the pre-Abrahamic gods of Semitic peoples were often related and Ethiopians aren't Arab. Also, the correct demonym is "Arab" not "Arabian".

I have no position on your first point but your second point is valid - Arabia is a place, Arab is a peope, this article is about peoples and their beliefs. William Harris • (talk) • 21:50, 5 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Where is Semitic Mythology?

[edit]

Gosh, it's just incredibly amazing that every nook and cranny of the entire world was inventing "fake," "made-up" gods ... except the east coast of the Mediterranean. Seems like that civilization might also have had the idea of a god that disappears and brings life with it when it returns. Hmmm, what was his name again? Can we be honest about what's going on in this article? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 174.28.229.110 (talk) 15:02, 12 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

They are all tutelaries(?)

[edit]

I see the word "tutelary" on the page a few times, but aren't these all tutelaries? Can this verbiage be added to the intro? 2603:6010:2103:EB70:5D4B:9421:BDB2:E41E (talk) 01:09, 4 May 2021 (UTC)[reply]
