Abstract

Flight to heavens had been one of the ancient wishes of man which finds expression in its utmost beauty in myths. This article deals with analysis of five myths namely Kaykavus in Persian narratives, Namrud in Sami narratives, Vuei in Chinese, Iccarus in Greek, and finally Atne in Mesopotamian ones whose dominant common feature is flight. The main purpose of this research is to study the similarities of these narratives with one another and to answer this question that whether the striking similarities found in some of these narratives are the result of their mutual influence and impact on one another or whether the action of certain characters mentioned are attributed to others in the narrative. The study shows that the stories of Kaykavus, Namrud, and Atne have the most likenesses and in fact it is as if due to certain similarities in the events in the reign of Kaykavus and Namrud, the story of Kaykavus’ s flight is attributed to Namrud’ s. Nevertheless, the narrative of Atneh is the most ancient one and the probability of its influence over the other narratives is quite strong.
