Joseph Campbell reminded us how important myths are in shaping human culture and our own individual world views. Of course, mythology cannot be truly understood in the narrow way it is commonly (mis)used today. In contemporary popular lingo, a myth is an unnecessary falsification of reality.

But myths are much more than that. The psychologist and scholar Clyde Ford - in his fascinating book ``The Hero with an African Face: Mythic Wisdom of Traditional Africa'' - astutely observes that myths are actually narratives that attempt to communicate ``unceasing truths.''
