Introduction
We have a lot of trouble with geography at the best of times, but when it becomes entwined with Godography we are stretched to the limits and beyond.
So where does Southeast Asian Mythology start or finish? As far as we can see, from a massive flurry of maps taking up all the floor space in the offices of our Underworld HQ, it covers Sumatra, Java, South and East Borneo, Celebes, Bali and Malaya.
As this begins to overlap Indo-China and is all still South East Asia we have added Burma, Thailand and regions including Cambodia and Vietnam. With some splendid Thai goodies and extra Buddhist bonus deities this all adds a lot of spiritual value.
