Original God: The prototype of Meru is Egyptian? No, these two countries are more likely

With The imminent appearance of Sumire, some players have speculated that the prototype of Sumire is Egyptian, and the god Sumire is Amun.

They think so only because there is a desert in Meru.

However, it is not only Egypt that has deserts, and the dimensional pot believes that the prototype of Meru is not the so-called ancient Egypt, but these two regions.

According to the known plot, the kingdom of Meru has oases and deserts. Where can I meet both of these requirements?

No need to look for it, it is ancient India.

The current India is not the same as the ancient India, the ancient India is not so big, but it includes the area around present-day Pakistan.

Like the famous Indus River, the main area flowing through is Pakistan. At the same time, Pakistan also has deserts.

Therefore, it is reasonable to think that Sumire is ancient India for the time being.

Even if the scope is expanded, at most the two river basins west of ancient India will be added, which is what we call the Sumerian civilization.

In fact, like ancient Egypt, Sumeria, and ancient Egypt, they all meet the conditions of both deserts and oases.

However, Sumer and Sumeru are pronounced very similarly, and in the relevant dictionaries, Sumeri is sometimes translated as Sumilus, which shows the close relationship between the two.

It is well known that after the fall of the Sumerian civilization, it was replaced by the Persian civilization. In Persian mythology, there are many "gods" with the same name as ancient Indian mythology.

Persian and Vedic mythology have the same deities.

Players who have seen Naruto or played Ark of Tomorrow should have heard of indara, an important character.

It was this man, known in Vedic mythology as the "King of the Gods," but the "evil god" of Persian mythology.

Seeing this, some people may ask: Listen to what you mean, is Sumire's little auspicious grass king him?

No, here is just an example, in fact, this "Indra" character is more like the Thor of Inari. Whether it is the attribute of thunder and lightning, or the slaying of the big snake, it is the common point between the two of them.

As the plot progresses, players learn about the history of Tivat, and the battle between the two Sky Islands is one of the two clues that Fuchishimiya tells us.

Another clue is that the people of Fuchishita Palace originally spoke another language and had their own Western-style names, but after they came ashore, they changed their names to Inari-style names.

Clue 1 shows that the same "god" is symbolized in different cultural legends.

The god of war in one kingdom is the walnut of another kingdom (walnut: seven sevens are being buried, don't cue).

Clue two is to tell us that perhaps not only the Yuanxia Palace, in fact, all the people are from the same place, in order to survive, the people are forced to flee their hometown.

So Morax came to Ryukyu with his people, and Barbatos came to Mond with his people.

Just as there are many European place names in the Americas, this Sumire is not the real Sumire, the real "Sumiya" is actually in the first Sky Island.

Since the relationship between Sumire and Sumeria was mentioned, many ideas sprouted in the mind of the dimensional pot, and even had a lot to do with the previous generation of grass gods, which may wish to be discussed in the next issue due to the limited space.
