We know about the existence of mermaids, nymphs from fairy tales, films. Their image runs through the whole world folklore. They are half-women and half-fish, live at the bottom of the reservoir. Until today, it is unknown, fictional or real mermaids, nymphs? Maybe in the distant past there were amphibious people ?!
The first legends about mermaids appeared in ancient Babylon. Together with them, the first male amphibians appeared, in another way, newts. By the way, the ancient inhabitants of Babylon worshiped deities that resembled fish and even the sun god Oanns.
Today, the main sensation is associated with the sun god Oanns. Scientists from France in West Africa discovered an ancient tribe called the Dogon. Before that, no one knew about them for several thousand years. The tribe possesses a brilliant astronomical knowledge that is ahead of modern science. The Dogonians themselves say that they received such knowledge from their ancestors from the star Sirius. Oannes was one of the main ones who flew to Earth and the ancestors of the modern Dogons began to worship him.
And it is to those distant times that the legend of the mermaids belongs. The small island where the ancestors of the Dogon tribe lived is covered with small green stones. Here they are called mermaid tears. They say that once a mermaid fell in love with a young monk. She visited him at the monastery. Tradition says that a monk taught a mermaid to pray, together they prayed for her soul from God. The mermaid did not manage to leave the sea, and she bitterly mourned her fate.
This legend was born in the 6th century. She is one of the few talking about love.
In most cases, mermaids appear as insidious creatures, luring sailors with their singing, putting them to sleep, and then killing them. There is even a belief that a person who sees a mermaid will drown.
However, not only sailors are said to have met mermaids. In all seriousness, the Times once told the story of a teacher, William Moir, who was walking along a beach in Scotland and noticed a creature resembling a woman on a stone. He began to look closely and realized that he had never seen anything like it before. Then she disappeared under the water. For 12 years the teacher was silent about this meeting, but then he could not resist and told reporters.
