I've read the latest book, came to the forum and was reading some of the opinions theory bits in the spoilers area.
 Some of the ideas put forth are from myths I don't know.
So where would one start at reading these mythologies.

Sorry if this should be in a dif subsection, am new to the forum. Thank you in advance!

Greek and Norse mythology, for a start. Then Native American and Celtic mythology. Possibly Indian, Etruscan, and Babylonian stuff after that.

Some Arthurian.  I read Mists of Avalon which is a really interesting take on the Arthurian cycle from the women’s perspectives.

It’s not RL myth but The Amber Chronicles have a heavy influence on the DF.

From there maybe some Wikipedia articles on Gnosticism
