-- What do the creation myths from Egypt and Mesopotamia have to say about who has the right to rule?

- Are there differences in how those who rule or come to rule in the creation myths are shown as rulers?

Answer

It assumes that the gods and the universe already exist and that once a long time ago the heavens and earth were united, only later to be split apart. Later, humankind was created and the great gods divided up the job of managing and keeping control over heavens, earth, and the Netherworld.
