Mythic Humanoids – Serpent People and Dragons – Part 3 (Survey of Dragons and dragon literature)

Here's Part 3 (Survey of Dragons and dragon literature) of my blog on serpent people and dragons. For Part 1 (Research Deluge) and Part 2 (Symbolism)

There are many ways to organize the numerous varieties of dragons.


Categorizing dragons by :
  1. Color [like shoes in a closet or crayons in a box, not based on mythological research.]
  2. Sea serpent v flier
  3. Old v New
  4. North v South
  5. East vs West [Does respect for dragons affect the interpretation of their myths?]
