Is the mythology in the Lycian Tradition a fusion of existing mythologies or entirely new?

0

It is neither a “fusion” nor “entirely new.” The mythology, as taught in the tradition, is simply “archetypal” described in the language common to the country it is being taught in. (English in the U.S.A.) Because of this it may seem as new, because the names of various deities are usually not translated into a language easily understood by the student. The Lycian Tradition’s method is to teach a difficult subject in the language most familiar to the student. Later this is tied, by means of examples, to foreign mythological concepts for a fuller understanding.
