The Four Ages of Human History

Ancient Vedic texts, Chaldean and Egyptian Tradition, the Eddas of the Nordics, Ancient Greek and Roman literature, Iranic-Persian texts, American-Indian legends, Aztecs, Maya, Toltec and Inca myths all tell us that human history is subject to four repetitive cycles of time based on creation and destruction. As these four cycles progress in time, human qualities such as virtue, ethics and truthfulness gradually disappear and materialism and individualism tend to prevail. This recurrent reminder of history and time defined as a cyclical, non linear event divided in four parts was very often symbolically represented with the four metals of gold, silver, bronze and iron as if these ancient myths, legends and texts all shared, at their roots, a similar primordial common universal origin.
