Hercules and Geomythology

With Hercules as our fellow-traveler and the science of Geomythology as our guide, we travel to the places of the myth and learn about the environmental-changes associated with his labors. Geomythology is the academic discipline that emerged from the intersection of Geology and Mythology. It deals with the interpretation of natural-myths in relation to the natural environment and the climatic conditions of prehistoric-times. Our aim is to bring children incontact with the natural environment and its changes in prehistory through the science of Geomythology.
