Abstract     What is the end and what's the beginning? Do floods and earthquakes bring an end or just a new beginning. These are the dilemmas that very past and which already the ancient man have tried to understand and explain. Various explanation are best revealed to us in the myths, since they accompany the history of mankind from the prehistoric to the modern era. By analysing the myths of different cultures from different parts of the world, we find striking similarities in the interpretation of the end and the beginning and of the common human destiny.
