The Evolution of the Dragon

The Evolution of the Dragon by G. Elliot Smith is a groundbreaking exploration of the origins, symbolism, and diffusion of dragon myths across cultures. Blending anthropology, mythology, and comparative religion, Smith investigates how the archetype of the dragon emerged from ancient serpent-worship traditions and spread globally through cultural contact and migration.

With meticulous research and a cross-cultural lens, Smith connects Mesopotamian, Egyptian, Indian, Chinese, and Mesoamerican traditions, revealing a unifying thread behind legends of dragons, sea serpents, and monstrous deities. This work challenges the assumption that similar myths arose independently, arguing instead for a diffusionist model of civilization and storytelling.

Ideal for scholars, esoteric enthusiasts, and mythology lovers, this audiobook offers a deep, intellectual journey into humanity’s ancient imagination and shared symbols. It’s not just about dragons—it’s about how culture, religion, and myth evolve and intertwine across time and geography.
