Nearly all ancient cultures contain myths about flying gods. Mesopotamian gods were often depicted as having magnificent wings, but Greek gods flew without wings and biblical descriptions of angels (such as those who visited Abraham) are without wings. It was not until the middle ages that wings started to appear on angels. In ancient civilizations flight was for the gods and mankind’s place was on earth.
