Abstract

The relationship between gods, humans, and animals together in myths and ancient traditions of different nations is important. Especially, since some of the animals, due to their distinctive features and prominent roles in the lives and beliefs of various people, have been in the spotlight. Two of these animals are peacocks and cows. Legends of the two animals have countless similarities with each other in different cultures especially in ancient Iranian and Greek beliefs. This can represent that the people of this land have many things in with common with the people of Greece. In fact, different culture may have common myths, and the myths of peacocks and cows are no exception, which symbolizes totemism, based on which the symbols in culture myths of nations are different. Hence, introducing various mythological representations of these legends is valuable to know about their origins, links, and philosophy, which can answer many questions in this regard. Therefore, this study has tried to study the mythological connotations of peacocks and cows in Iranian and Greek myths, an area of research on which there are scanty clues.
